Tighten
- Nut to 14 N.m (124 lbs. in.).
- Check the air gap with a feeler gauge. It should be 0.49 to 0.79 mm (0.016 to 0.031 inch). If the gap is not consistent all around, pry up slightly at points of minimum variation. Lightly tap down at points of maximum variation. The gap is determined by the shims. If necessary, add to or remover shims from the shim stack.
