7MGE Valve clearances Fri, 29 April 2005 00:21 Go to next message
Hello All

I just measured the valve clearances on my Grande and just thought I'd ask the forum if they are too far out of spec and need adjusting. If so where's the best place to buy shims?

Have a look at the attached list.

I've also retorqued the head after 1300kms since changing the head gasket.

Valve clearances Cressy
Specs 8-12 thou 6-10 thou
Cylinder Exhaust Actual Inlet Actual
6 12 8
13 9
5 12 9
12 9
4 15.5 10
15.5 10
3 16 13
16 12
2 14 12
14 11
1 9 8
8 7

i wouldnt worry about the 14's on the intake, but fix everything over that

equally, i wouldnt worry about the 12's on the ex, but id fix the 13

if i recall correctly, 3sfe has the same size shim. just go to the wrecker and rip a head off a camry and swipe a handful. otherwise toyota charges +$7 ea
