Thankyou for making this video, I think your the only one who's done this for the 4g69 engine on TH-cam. Most others are the 4g64, though similar it's not the exact same engine.
For your information: Measure the valve clearances. There was a need for clarity. In the service manual on page 11A-11 specified gap intake: 0.20 mm (0.008 inch), Exhaust: 0.30 mm (0.012 inch). However, this is not true. More precisely, this is true for the Engine coolant temperature: 80 − 95°C (176 − 203°F). It's very inconvenient. Therefore, open the page 11B-22. Here are written valve clearances for a cold engine. Standard value (in cold state): Intake side: 0.11 mm (0.004 inch) Exhaust side: 0.21 mm (0.008 inch) Intake side: 0.11 mm (0.004 inch) Exhaust side: 0.22 mm (0.009 inch) I've always removed the spark plugs on any car that I've done valve lash adjustments and or timing belts, used a coat hanger or rubber glove in the spark plug hole to be double sure it's top dead center and it's ALWAYS been 100%. 🙂👍
In the video I hear you begin with stating that after TDC a 360 degree rotation is needed. Then later on it is difficult to tell if you are instructing to turn an additional 180 degrees. 540 degrees? Is this to go from the compression stroke over to the exhaust stroke? The video does leave a beginner lost with questions.
try changing the timing belt tensioner. they get weak on the 4g69 causing it to smack against the water pump making the same noise as the noise made by an un-lashed valve
Friend, thanks for your explanation and I wanted to ask you since my English is little, you say that by placing piston one in top dead center I adjust at the same time the 4 valancines of cylinder one, the 2 intake of cylinder 2 and 2 of cylinder 3 exhaust ?? and then turn 360 0 are 180 degrees to adjust the rest of the rocker arms at the same time thanks
Hi bro, found this video of yours really good. One question though, as this would be my first time attempting valve settings, in what gear should the vehicle be when adjusting? Please reply, need to know real bad. Just don't want to screw up.
hey i love your video can you give me some advise i have a mitsubishi galant with a 4g37 engine i need the right adjustment on the intake valve and the exhaust valve it a single cam ty
That looks extremely simple. I want to try this myself on my car to save me 250 dollars. Lol. Question tho if you're still reading comments. The positioning of the valves you adjust with the notch top and center and after the 180 turn are they all same location in all cars or do they vary?
no need , spark plug usually removed to make sure that the piston is at top dead -center which means that both valves must be closed at that time and you can then adjust the clearance

I've always removed the spark plugs on any car that I've done valve lash adjustments and or timing belts, used a coat hanger or rubber glove in the spark plug hole to be double sure it's top dead center and it's ALWAYS been 100%. 🙂👍
Thanks so much for the video. This procedure was very difficult to find without paying for it.
This video helps a lot. It definitely gives me an idea on the process. I'm getting ready to adjust the valve lash on my 4B12 in the Lancer. Thank You.
it's hard to tell on a 4g69 due to the injectors ticking. the ticking is mostly the injectors on that motor. :)

I had to change mine cause it have got weak,,,, really.
"Small ticking noise" sounds like a rock in a blender.

could i do this adjustment with the head off off my galant?
To my eclipse 4g 2.4 need the measure to calibrate valves after repair the head and change timing belt.help please
Perdón alguien puede decirme que calibración llevan las válvulas de admisión y las de escape, muchas gracias

Can you not also be at TDC during the exhaust stroke thereby observing no play in the exhaust valves? Helpful video, thanks
I really like your videos man. OKAY!!!!!
SO WHAT IS THE REASON WHY YOURE ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE?
is ok to have a little play to the sides on the rocker arms after your done?
Hi can u give advice valve clearance adjustment of 4g 15 engine Mitsubishi tanks
Thanks for sharing. Good job bro.👍
hey i love your video can you give me some advise i have a mitsubishi galant with a 4g37 engine i need the right adjustment on the intake valve and the exhaust valve it a single cam ty
The timing mark is on the valve cover
O so you do adjust valves for gasoline cars as well as diesel cars thought it was only for diesel ... hummm how often should valve adjustment be done?
I like to adjust valve on rocker arm for powerol 3 pinston engine
That looks extremely simple. I want to try this myself on my car to save me 250 dollars. Lol. Question tho if you're still reading comments. The positioning of the valves you adjust with the notch top and center and after the 180 turn are they all same location in all cars or do they vary?
I am going to do this on my galant....same engine.
Did you have to remove the spark plugs?
no need , spark plug usually removed to make sure that the piston is at top dead -center which means that both valves must be closed at that time and you can then adjust the clearance
Wow, why are those ignition coils so oily. Were the seals leaking?
mine were when i bought it used with 140k
These are only exhaust valves? and, what about intake?!?!!
O.03mm or 0.30mm
couldve jsut removed spark plugs to feel for tdc lol also by the time you get down to adjusting them wouldnt your engine be cooled down?
Konrad H that’s the right way to Check for tdc I almost fucked up my timing belt cause of him
The timming mark it's located on the valve cover, don't know why hahahahaa
MIVEC engines always seem to tick
I’m looking for specs for 2008 outlander V8.
V8?
This engine have H.C problem + timing chain
goodjob bro
Could of just stuck a metal rod in the cylinder to get to TDC.
That actually not piston number one piston number 1 is in front of driver
dee bush Piston #1 is always the closest one to the timing belt/chain.
Number 1 is definitely on the timing belt side of that 2.4 engine.
