How to adjust cylinder clearance on Kia Sportage?
Turn the crankshaft pulley one revolution (360°) and align the groove with timing mark “T” of the lower timing chain cover. Check only valves indicated as shown. Measure the valve clearance. 4. Adjust the intake and exhaust valve clearance. Set the No.1 cylinder to the TDC/compression.
Where to put timing chain on Kia Sportage?
Hold the timing chain, and place the intake CVVT & camshaft assembly. Place the exhaust CVVT & camshaft assembly after releasing the ratchet of the timing chain tensioner. The timing marks of each CVVT sprocket should be matched with timing marks (painted link) of timing chain when installing the timing chain.
How to adjust intake and exhaust valve clearance?
Intake : 0.17 ~ 0.23mm (0.0067 ~ 0.0090in.) Turn the crankshaft pulley one revolution (360°) and align the groove with timing mark “T” of the lower timing chain cover. Check only valves indicated as shown. Measure the valve clearance. 4. Adjust the intake and exhaust valve clearance. Set the No.1 cylinder to the TDC/compression.
When to inspect and adjust the valve clearance?
Inspect and adjust the valve clearance when the engine is cold (Engine coolant temperature : 20°C (68°F)) and cylinder head is installed on the cylinder block. In case of removing the high pressure fuel pump, high pressure fuel pipe, delivery pipe, and injector, there may be injury caused by leakage of the high pressure fuel.
What is the EGR system on a Kia Sportage?
The EGR system on a vehicle is responsible for recirculating exhaust gasses in order to lower the vehicles emissions output. There are three main parts of the Sportage’s EGR system. They are the EGR Valve, Differential Pressure Sensor, and the Actuator Solenoid.
Turn the crankshaft pulley one revolution (360°) and align the groove with timing mark “T” of the lower timing chain cover. Check only valves indicated as shown. Measure the valve clearance. 4. Adjust the intake and exhaust valve clearance. Set the No.1 cylinder to the TDC/compression.
How do you release timing chain tensioner in Kia Sportage?
Release the ratchet of the timing chain tensioner by pulling the link down using a thin rod. After loosening the timing chain, remove the exhaust CVVT & camshaft assembly (A) and then the intake CVVT & camshaft assembly (B). When disconnect the timing chain from the CVVT sprocket, hold the timing chain.
Intake : 0.17 ~ 0.23mm (0.0067 ~ 0.0090in.) Turn the crankshaft pulley one revolution (360°) and align the groove with timing mark “T” of the lower timing chain cover. Check only valves indicated as shown. Measure the valve clearance. 4. Adjust the intake and exhaust valve clearance. Set the No.1 cylinder to the TDC/compression.
How to measure the valve clearance on a Kia Sorento?
Measure the valve clearance. Using a thickness gauge, measure the clearance between the tappet and the base circle of camshaft. Record the out-of-specification valve clearance measurements. They will be used later to determine the required replacement adjusting tappet. Intake : 0.17 ~ 0.23mm (0.0067 ~ 0.0090in.)
How do you set a CVVT valve clearance?
1. Remove the cylinder head cover. 2. Set No.1 cylinder to TDC/compression. Turn the crankshaft pulley and align its groove with the timing mark “T” of the lower timing chain cover. Check that the TDC marks (A) of the CVVT sprockets are in straight line on the cylinder head surface as shown in the illustration. 3. Inspect the valve clearance.
