Valve Lash Check

Valve lash is measured between the rocker arm and the bridge for the valves. All the clearance measurements and the
adjustments must be made with the engine stopped. The valves must be fully closed.

If the measurement of the valve lash is in the acceptable range, no adjustments are necessary. The range is given in Table 1.
