3. Remove the splash shield (RH).
4. Remove the spark plugs. (See G10 SPARK PLUG REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
5. Remove the high-tension lead.
6. Remove the oil control valve (OCV) connector.
7. Remove the ventilation hose.
8. Remove the cylinder head cover.
9. Verify that the engine is in cold condition.
10. Measure the valve clearance.
(1) Turn the crankshaft clockwise so that the No.1 piston is at TDC of the compression stroke.
(2) Measure the valve clearance at A in the
figure.
• If the valve clearance exceeds the space
the tappet. (See B5 VALVE
CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT.)
Note
• Make sure to note the measured values for
choosing the suitable replacement tappets.
