3. Install the valve rocker shaft securing bolts.
INSPECTION
VALVE ROCKER ARM
1. Measure the inside diameter of valve rocker arm and outside diameter of valve rocker shaft, and determine the difference between the two (= oil clearance).
Clearance between arm and shaft:
Standard 0.020 - 0.054 mm (0.0008 - 0.0021 inch)
Limit 0.10 mm (0.0039 inch)
2. If oil clearance exceeds the limit, replace the valve rocker arm or shaft, whichever shows greater amount of wear.
Rocker arm inside diameter: 22.020 - 22.041 mm (0.8669 - 0.8678 inch)
Rocker shaft diameter: 21.987 - 22.000 mm (0.8656 - 0.8661 inch)
3. If cam or valve contact surface of valve rocker arm is worn or dented excessively, replace the valve rocker arm.
4. Check that the valve rocker arm roller rotates smoothly. If not, replace the valve rocker arm.
INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVE ROCKER SHAFT
Visually check the oil relief valve of shaft end for any of the following abnormalities.
^ Breaks in check ball body
^ Foreign particles caught in valve spring
^ Oil leakage at check ball
