Valve Clearances

To check the valve clearances, you first have to know which cylinder valves to work on and when. For example, if you want to check the clearances on cylinder 1, you need to have cylinder 4 rocking and vice versa. To do this you need to loosen the nuts on the rocker arm and tighten/loosen the screws to get the correct clearance. The correct clearances are 0.15mm for the Inlet valves and 0.25mm for the Exhaust valves.

  1. true, can you tell me why we need a clearance and what happens when they are too tight, or too loose?
