Valve Clearance

Adjustment

NOTE:
•   Valves should be adjusted cold when the cylinder head temperature is less than 38°C (100° F). Adjustment is the same for intake and exhaust valves.
•   If the pulley bolt loosens while turning crank, tighten it to specified torque.

Specified Torque:
185 N•m (18.5 kg-m, 134 Ib-ft)

1. Remove the cylinder head cover.

2. Set No. 1 piston at TDC. "UP" mark on the pulley should be at top, and TDC marks should align with cylinder head upper surface (D15B7, D15B8 engine) or TDC groove should align with pointer(s) on the timing belt back cover (D16Z6, D15Z1 engine). The crankshaft pulley should be at TDC.
