To adjust the valves on a 1983 Toyota Corolla with a 3AC motor, first ensure the engine is cold. Remove the valve cover and turn the engine to align the timing mark on the crankshaft pulley with the "T" mark on the timing cover, setting the engine to top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder #1. The intake valve clearance should be set to 0.15 mm (0.006 in) and the exhaust valve clearance to 0.20 mm (0.008 in). Use a feeler gauge to measure the gaps and adjust using the rocker arm adjustment nuts as needed.
