ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE
f. Round off the original valve pad number
according to the following table.
EXAMPLE:
Original valve pad number = 248 (thickness =
2.48 mm)

valve pad and the measured valve clear-
ance in the valve pad selection table. The

repeated if the measurement is still incorrect.

side facing down.

ment steps until the specified clearance is
obtained.
