Valve clearances are measured with feeler gauges on cold aircooled engines or warm water cooled engines.
The proton savvy uses a renault 1.2 16V engine code D4F and many specs can be found on line from renault forums. 11 TOP AND FRONT OF ENGINE Cylinder head gasket 11-7 Setting the valve clearances Valve clearance setting values (in mm): - inlet 0.05to 0.12 - exhaust 0.15to 0.22 Open exhaust valve method Bring the exhaust valve of cylinderno. 1 to the fully open position, then adjust the inlet valve clearance for cylinder no. 3and the exhaust valve clearance for cylinder no. 4. Follow the same method for the other cylinders, in the order shown by the table below.
With a Valve Spring Height Micrometer ----------------------------------------------------------------- If you don't have one of these tools you can also use what is called a snap gauge. Snap gauges are spring loaded and you can use it to measure the distance from the spring pad to the bottom of the retainer. Then you can measure the end to end distance of the snap gauge with either a dial caliper or a micrometer. Not as fast as the first solution but it is all we had for many years.
Piston damage can be caused by detonation, pre-ignition, or excessive heat leading to scoring or cracking. Valve damage can result from improper valve clearance, impact with piston due to incorrect timing, or failure of the valve springs. Both issues can also arise from lack of proper lubrication or cooling.
A tire pressure gauge is used to measure the air pressure inside a tire by pressing a nozzle onto the valve stem of the tire, providing a reading of the pressure level on a display. This helps ensure that the tire pressure is at the recommended level for safe driving and optimal tire performance.
Valve guide bore can be measured using a bore gauge. The bore gauge is inserted into the valve guide, and the measurement is taken by expanding the gauge until it makes contact with the inner walls of the guide. The bore diameter can then be read directly from the gauge.

To adjust the valve clearance on a 6D14 engine, first, ensure the engine is cold and then remove the valve cover. Rotate the crankshaft to align the timing marks to the top dead center (TDC) for the cylinder you are adjusting. Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance between the rocker arm and the valve stem, and adjust the clearance by loosening the lock nut and turning the adjustment screw as needed. Finally, recheck the clearance before reassembling the valve cover.
To set the valve clearance on a Mazda T3500, first, ensure the engine is cold for accurate measurements. Remove the valve cover, then use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the rocker arm and the valve stem. Adjust the clearance by loosening the lock nut and turning the adjusting screw to achieve the specified clearance, typically around 0.15 mm for intake and exhaust. Finally, recheck the clearance and reassemble the valve cover.
To adjust the valve clearance on a Clio 1.4 8-valve engine, first, ensure the engine is cold and remove the valve cover. Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance between the rocker arm and the valve stem. If adjustment is needed, loosen the lock nut on the rocker arm and turn the adjustment screw to achieve the specified clearance, then tighten the lock nut. Finally, recheck the clearance to ensure it's within the manufacturer's specifications before reassembling the valve cover.
You can check the valve clearance with a valve clearance guide. Slide the guide between the valve. The guide will register the clearance.

To set the valve clearance on an Isuzu Trooper 3.1, first, ensure the engine is cold. Remove the valve cover and use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the rocker arm and the valve stem. Adjust the clearance by loosening the adjusting nut and turning the screw until the desired clearance (typically around 0.20 mm for intake and 0.25 mm for exhaust) is achieved, then re-tighten the nut. Finally, recheck the clearance and replace the valve cover.
The clearance for the intake valve of the Kawasaki Barako 175 is typically set at 0.05 mm (0.002 inches). To adjust the valve clearance, first, ensure the engine is cold. Remove the valve cover, then use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the rocker arm and the valve stem. If adjustment is needed, loosen the lock nut, turn the adjustment screw to achieve the correct clearance, and then re-tighten the lock nut. Always recheck the clearance after adjustments are made.
To adjust the valve clearance on a Daewoo Racer, first ensure the engine is cool and remove the valve cover. Rotate the crankshaft to set the engine to the top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the cylinder you are adjusting. Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance between the rocker arm and the valve stem, and if necessary, loosen the lock nut and adjust the screw to achieve the specified clearance. Finally, re-tighten the lock nut, double-check the clearance, and reassemble the valve cover.
To set the valve clearance on a Yamaha Big Bear 350, first, ensure the engine is cold and then remove the valve cover. Rotate the engine to set the piston at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the cylinder you are adjusting. Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance between the valve stem and the rocker arm, adjusting the clearance by loosening the lock nut and turning the adjustment screw as needed. Finally, recheck the clearance and reassemble the valve cover.
