8. Valve Clearance
A: INSPECTION
1) Disconnect the ground cable from battery.
2) Remove the engine from vehicle. <Ref. to ME(w/
o STI)-29, REMOVAL, Engine Assembly.>
3) Remove the timing belt cover RH. <Ref. to
ME(w/o STI)-47, REMOVAL, Timing Belt Cover.>
4) When inspecting #1 and #3 cylinders
(1) Remove the clip (A) and the stay (B) which
hold the engine harness to the rocker cover RH.
(2) Remove the ignition coil. <Ref. to IG(w/o
STI)-8, REMOVAL, Ignition Coil.>
(3) Disconnect the PCV hose (A) and PCV hose
assembly (B) from the rocker cover RH.
NOTE:
Pinch the clamp of the PCV hose (A) by fitting the
cut out in the ST with the protrusion on the clamp as
shown in the figure, and unlock the clamp.

5) When inspecting #2 and #4 cylinders
(1) Remove the secondary air pump. <Ref. to
EC(w/o STI)-29, REMOVAL, Secondary Air
(2) Remove the air duct B (B) from the rocker
cover LH and the air duct A (A).
(3) Remove the ignition coil. <Ref. to IG(w/o
STI)-8, REMOVAL, Ignition Coil.>
(4) Disconnect the PCV hose (A) and PCV hose
assembly (B) from the rocker cover LH.

(5) Remove the rocker cover LH.
6) Turn the crank pulley clockwise until the round
mark and arrow mark on the cam sprocket are set
to position shown in the figure.
NOTE:
Turn the crank pulley using a socket wrench.

7) Measure the clearance of intake valve and ex-
haust valve using thickness gauge (A).
NOTE:
• Insert a thickness gauge in a direction as hori-
zontal as possible with respect to the valve lifter.
• Lift up the vehicle, and then measure the ex-
haust valve clearances.
• If the measured value is not within the inspection
value, take notes of the value in order to adjust the
valve clearance later on.

9) After inspection, install the related parts in the
reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
• Refer to “Camshaft” when installing the rocker
cover. <Ref. to ME(w/o STI)-61, INSTALLATION,
• Use a new clamp for the PCV hose (A), fit the cut
out in the ST with the protrusion on the clamp as
shown in the figure, and lock the clamp.

1) Measure all the valve clearances. <Ref. to
ME(w/o STI)-25, INSPECTION, Valve Clearance.>
NOTE:
Record the measured value of each valve clear-
ance.
2) Remove the camshaft. <Ref. to ME(w/o STI)-59,
3) Remove the valve lifter.
4) Measure the thickness of valve lifter using mi-
crometer.
5) Select a valve lifter of suitable thickness using
the measured valve clearance and valve lifter thick-
ness, and install it.
NOTE:
Use a new valve lifter.
6) Install the camshaft. <Ref. to ME(w/o STI)-61,
7) Install the cam sprocket. <Ref. to ME(w/o STI)-
57, INSTALLATION, Cam Sprocket.>
8) Install the timing belt. <Ref. to ME(w/o STI)-51,
TIMING BELT, INSTALLATION, Timing Belt.>
9) Measure all valves for valve clearance again at
this time. If the valve clearance is not within the ad-
justment value, repeat the procedure over again
from step 2).
