Measure the decompressor arm clearance by inserting
a feeler gauge between the decompressor arm adjust-
ing screw and right side rocker arm.
DECOMPRESSOR CLEARANCE:
RIGHT EXHAUST VALVE CLEARANCE
＋
0.014 in (0.35 mm)
ex)
If measured right exhaust valve clearance is 0.011 in
(0.28 mm), decompressor clearance is;
0.011 in (0.28 mm) + 0.014 in (0.35 mm) = 0.025 in (0.63 mm)
Measure the intake valve clearance and exhaust valve
clearance.
