Have tried searching but can only find a setting of 14 thou mentioned. Can anybody tell me what the metric equivalent is for the Nissan 2.7. |

Inlet and Exhaust are the same. As you said, 0.014 in (14thou), which is 0.35 mm. |

Valve clearances. These valve gaps (tappets) are 14 thou hot.Inlet and exhaust are the same.Get the engine hot and take out the heater plugs,turn the engine with a 19mm spanner on the power steering pulley.With Number one at TDC on firing stroke set valves 1,2,3 and 6.With number 4 at TDC on the firing stroke.set valves number 4,5,7 and 8.Turning the engine till the inlet has opened will determine the firing stroke,placing a finger over the heater plug hole will confirm the piston rising on compression. |
