| Renault Engine >> VALVE LASH SPECIFICATIONS
Valve Lash Specifications On Chrysler (AMC Renault) 1.7 & 2.0L (105 & 122 CID) Engines
The Chrysler (AMC Renault) 1.7 & 2.0L (105 & 122 CID) engines use a puck with a replaceable pad to adjust the valve lash. With the engine cold, the recommended valve lash for the intake valves is .008 (.20mm) and .015 (.40mm) for the exhaust valves (Figure 1).
Setting the valve lash requires mounting the camshaft and camshaft caps to the cylinder head. Using the sequence outlined in the illustration (Figure 2), torque bolts #11 & 12 (6mm diameter) to 7 lbs.ft. and the remaining bolts (8mm diameter) to 15 lbs.ft. Apply a small amount of RTV sealer on the parting face of each end camshaft bearing cap before installation. This will guard against external oil leaks.
