    This document provides instructions for adjusting the valve clearance on a 2004 Toyota Camry L4-2.4L engine. It involves removing engine covers and components to access the valves. The procedure then checks the clearance for specific valves using a feeler gauge when the engine is cold. It may require replacing valve lifters with different thicknesses to adjust the clearance to the specified range. Turning the crankshaft positions the cylinders for inspection and adjustment.

    The document outlines the procedure for adjusting the valve clearance on a 2004 Toyota Camry engine.

    The steps include setting each cylinder to TDC, measuring the clearance, removing the camshaft and valve lifters, selecting new lifters based on measurements, and reassembling.

    A feeler gauge is used to measure the clearance between the valve lifter and camshaft.

    1. REMOVE FRONT WHEEL RH


    2. REMOVE FRONT FENDER APRON SEAL RH
    3. REMOVE ENGINE COVER SUB-ASSY NO.1
    4. REMOVE SPARK PLUG
    5. DISCONNECT VENTILATION HOSE
    6. DISCONNECT VENTILATION HOSE NO.2
    7. DISCONNECT ENGINE WIRE
    8. REMOVE CYLINDER HEAD COVER SUB-ASSY

    a)Remove the bolt and disconnect the engine wire harness clamp.b)Remove the 8 bolts, 2
    nuts, cylinder head cover and gasket.

    1. SET NO. 1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION


    a)Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with timing mark 0 of the timing chain
    cover.b)Check that the timing marks of the camshaft timing gear and sprocket are aligned
    with the timing marks of bearing caps No. 1 and No. 2, as shown in the illustration.

    1. INSPECT VALVE CLEARANCE HINT: Inspect and adjust the valve clearance
    when the engine is cold.

    a)Check only the valves indicated on the left.1)Using a feeler gauge, measure the
    clearance between each valve lifter and camshaft.2)Record valve clearance measurements
    that are out of the specified range. These measurements will be used later to determine
    the size of the adjustment shim to be installed.

    b)Turn the crankshaft clockwise 1 revolution (360°) and set the No. 4 cylinder to
    TDC/compression.

    c)Check only the valves indicated on the left.1)Using a feeler gauge, measure the
    clearance between each valve lifter and camshaft.2)Record valve clearance measurements
    that are out of the specified range. These measurements will be used later to determine
    the size of the adjustment shim to be installed.

    1. ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE NOTICE: Be sure not to turn the crankshaft


    without the chain tensioner.

    a)Turn the crankshaft clockwise 1 revolution (360°) and set the No. 1 cylinder to the
    TDC/compression.b)Place paint marks on the timing chain and camshaft timing
    gear/sprocket.

    c)Remove the 2 bolts and chain tensioner.

    d)Remove the No. 2 camshaft.1)Fix the camshaft with a wrench and then loosen the
    sprocket bolt. NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the valve lifter.

    2)Uniformly loosen and remove the No. 2 camshaft's 10 bearing cap bolts in the sequence
    shown in the illustration. Then remove the 5 bearing caps.
    3)Raise the No. 2 camshaft and remove it. Then remove the sprocket bolt.4)Remove the
    camshaft timing sprocket and the timing chain from the No. 2 camshaft.5)Remove the
    camshaft timing sprocket from the timing chain.

    e)Remove the camshaft.1)Uniformly loosen and remove the camshaft's 10 bearing cap
    bolts in the sequence shown in the illustration. Then remove the 5 bearing

    caps.2)Remove the camshaft.

    f)Tie the timing chain with a string. NOTICE: Be careful not to drop anything inside the
    timing chain cover.
    g)Remove the valve lifters.

    h)Adjust the valve clearance.1)Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the


    removed lifter.

    2)Calculate the thickness of a new lifter so that the valve clearance comes within the

    specified value.
