3) Remove right side engine under cover, if necessary.
4) Using 17 mm wrench, turn crankshaft pulley (1)

to shim faces (3) at valves “1” and “7” as shown in
the figure.
5) Check valve lashes with thickness gauge (4)
according to the following procedure.
a) Check valve lashes at valves “1” and “7”.
b) Turn camshafts by 90
°
(by turning crankshaft
with wrench).
c) Make sure that cam lobes are perpendicular to
shim faces at valves to be checked (in this case,
“3” and “8”), if not, adjust it by turning crankshaft.
Check valve lashes.
d) In the same manner as b) – c), check valve
lashes at valves “4” and “6”.
e) In the same manner as b) – c) again, check
valve lashes at valves “2” and “5”.
If valve lash is out of specification, record valve lash and
adjust it to specification by replacing shim.
