ADJUSTMENTS
VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: Adjust valve clearance with engine cold.
1) Remove nuts, grommets, valve cover and gasket. Note
location of grommets for reassembly. Rotate crankshaft clockwise so
cylinder No. 1 is at TDC on compression stroke. Cylinder No. 1 is
front cylinder at timing belt end of engine.
2) Ensure timing mark on crankshaft pulley aligns with "0"
mark on timing belt cover. Ensure valve lifters are loose on cylinder
No. 1 and tight on cylinder No. 4. If conditions are not as described,
rotate crankshaft one complete revolution (360 degrees).
3) With cylinder No. 1 at TDC on compression stroke, check
valve clearance on specified valves. Perform STEP 1. See Fig. 1. Using
feeler gauge, measure and record valve clearance between valve lifter
and camshaft.
4) To check remaining valves, rotate crankshaft clockwise 360
degrees (one revolution) until cylinder No. 4 cylinder is at TDC on
compression stroke. Measure and record valve clearance on specified
valves. Perform STEP 2. See Fig. 1.
5) Ensure valve clearance is within specification. See VALVE
CLEARANCE SPECIFICATIONS table.

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
NOTE: For reassembly reference, label all electrical connectors,
vacuum hoses and fuel lines before removal. Also place
mating marks on engine hood and other major assemblies
before removal.
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory
systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may

exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle.
CAUTION: To prevent air bag deployment, disconnect negative battery
cable at least 30 seconds before working on vehicle.
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE
With ignition off, disconnect negative battery cable. Place
suitable container under fuel line connection. Cover fuel line
connection with shop towel. Slowly loosen fuel line connection,
allowing fuel pressure to be released. Once fuel pressure is released,
fuel system components can be removed.
COOLING SYSTEM BLEEDING
Camry & Celica
No special cooling system bleeding procedure is required.
MR2
1) Remove spare tire, front luggage compartment trim and
upper radiator support seal. Connect air bleed hoses to heater and
radiator air drain plugs. See Fig. 11. Attach and support opposite end
of air bleed hoses to hood or hood support. Ensure air bleed hoses are
not pinched.
2) Place heater control lever to the warmest position. Open
heater and radiator air drain plugs at least 3 turns.
3) Slowly add coolant through coolant filler. See Fig. 11.
Air will bleed from air bleed hoses on heater and radiator air drain
plugs. Ensure coolant level in air bleed hoses and coolant filler are
at the same level. See Fig. 11.
4) If coolant level in air bleed hoses is lower, air still
exists in cooling system. Check for pinched or restriction in air
bleed hoses and repeat step 3). When proper coolant level is obtained
in air bleed hoses, close heater and radiator air drain plugs. Remove
air bleed hoses.
5) Install radiator cap on coolant filler to the first stop
point. DO NOT fully tighten radiator cap to the second stop point.
Start engine and allow to idle for 3 minutes. Shut engine off. Recheck
coolant level in coolant filler.
6) Add coolant if necessary and repeat step 5). Recheck
coolant level. If proper coolant level exists, install radiator cap
and fully tighten to the second stop point. Fill coolant reservoir
tank to the FULL line. Reinstall upper radiator support seal.
