VALVE INSPECTION

REFER TO MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE IN THIS OWNER’S MANUAL FOR

VALVE ADJUSTMENT INSPECTION INTERVALS.

Valve clearance should be:

Intake:

0.002 inch (0.05 mm)

Exhaust:

0.003 inch (0.076 mm)

The engine will make excess noise if the gap is too large in air valve. If

gap is too small valve operation will be hindered which could result in

valve malfunction and failure. Therefore, air valve gap must be checked

periodically.

If you have the proper tools and are mechanically proficient, instructions on

adjusting the valve clearance are given in the service manual. If assistance is

needed please contact Baja Inc. to find your local service center.
