VALVE CLEARANCE INSPECTION
NOTE
Valve clearance inspection should be performed on a
cold engine, at room temperature.
1.
Remove the seats and disconnect the negative (-)
battery cable.
2.
Remove the cargo box access panel.
3.
Remove the spark plug wire from the engine and
remove the spark plug. Place a clean shop towel into
the spark plug tube to prevent debris from entering
the combustion chamber.
4.
Remove the three T40 bolts retaining the valve
cover.
5.
Remove the valve cover from the engine out of the
right-hand rear wheel well area.
6.
Remove the outer PVT cover and drive belt as shown
in chapter 6.
7.
Rotate the drive clutch counter-clockwise until the
cam chain sprocket timing marks are aligned with the
gasket surface as shown (see Chapter 3 for more
TDC setting procedures).
NOTE
Intake cam sprocket should have “I” marks aligned with
gasket surface and the exhaust cam sprocket should
have “E” marks aligned with gasket surface.
8.
Measure the valve clearance of each valve using a
thickness (feeler) gauge. Record the measurement if
clearance is out of specification.
