I teach you how to adjust valves using my own diesel engines!

- Hey guys
So I have finally decided to commit to doing a proper How To video! I don't usually do these videos because they don't tend to perform well on UA-cam unless people are specifically searching for how to do something, which in the case of valves isn't very many people! However the first time I did a set of valves I felt so achieved and I think its a task simple enough for anyone to learn if your willing!
Unfortunately How To videos also tend to bring out all the experts. I have tried to explain this video in the most basic and least complicated way so that someone not mechanically minded might still be able to understand. So I don't always use correct terminology and I have left ALOT out but hoping the video can help someone understand.
I honestly believe in just getting hands on, building a passion through doing! I didn't realise how much I loved mechanical work untill I got hands on. I always encourage you to still have someone qualified or experienced to over look all your work if you are new to working on engines but please don't be scared off thinking you cant do it!
In this video I take you through the basics of the Diesel Engine Cycle, what your valves do and why, I explain basic terminology like "on the rock" that people always mix up. Then I take you back to footage from 2019 of me adjusting the valves on my 1991 1hz which has a bucket and shim type valve arrangement. After that I run you through the FAR simplier method on my 12H-T which has a pushrod valve setup. The 12H-T footage is purely just to show you guys the process and some tips, as these style of valves must be adjusted hot (engine at operating temp)
I hope even if you don't own an older diesel like these that everybody can take something away from this video. If you do please let me know! I am incredibly nervous uploading a video in this style because I know how critical the internet is!

TERMS
Camshaft: Opens and closes the Intake and Exhaust valves
On The Rock: The valves of a cylinder that are overlapping ie. exhaust valve is closing as the intake valve is opening. Commonly mistaken to mean the rocker arms that are loose however it is the exact opposite. We cannot adjust valves of a cylinder that is "on the rock" because both valves are in motion and hence no gap is present to measure or adjust.
OHV - Overhead Valve. Camshaft is located in the engine block and includes pushrods and rocker arms
OHC - Overhead Camshaft. Where the camshaft is located in the cylinder head and can have bucket and shim style valves or rocker arms.

Thank you Danie! I’m a 30 year old youtube mechanic who’s got himself a ute for a first car and you just taught me heaps!
My 80's 1hz has just gone over 700 k km's and is due for timing belt/tensioner + water pump and t-stat plus a shim adjustment. I did the last shim adjust 100 k km's ago about 7 yrs ago. Ye olde 1hz's keep on chugging with good attention to regular oil/filter and coolant changes. The Toyota FSM has all the details and we are super lucky that places like Precision Shims exist here on Australia!
Love your work Danie. Watching this I've picked a few new tricks on adjusting the valves for the 12ht. I bet you've made it alot easier for people to try to have ago trying to adjust their own valves now by you uploading this video.
That's so good to hear! Yeah that is hopefully the goal!
hydraulic adjusters,'',, been out since the 50,s.. toyota just a bit slow on catch up.. get out more.. not brainwashed by toyota crap..1996, ohc, 3 valves, 3'' system, all mechanical, no glow plugs, 700nm. mwm sprint. 4.2tdi. german. fitted to silverado,s & s/duty,s in aus.. no computer crap.. there a tractor engine..@@DanieSimpson
It's always a great Sunday watching your posts Danie !!!!!!!! 👍thankyou ⚘
Oh thank you appreciate the comments each upload!!
Ha ha that's funny first week of covid I went to my garage and got busy swapping motors in two my trucks the whole world went crazy but I never changed thank you from East Texas
Very impressive Danie, I have learned a lot. Thanks.
This was a Masterclass in so many ways: Mechanics, Pronunciation, Chemistry... But specially, Art Interpretation and Origins of Abstract Painting, life of an artist is so misunderstood. ¡¡PURA VIDA!!
Hahah love it😁
Thanks Danie, that's a great instructional and informative video that will hopefully allow me to adjust my 1hdt valve clearances
Ah that's awesome to hear!! Yeah will be the same as the 1hz:)
I think you explaind it very well. For the people trying to learn about it.
That's really good to hear! Breaking things down to the basics can be kind of hard sometimes trying to keep all the relevant info without complicating it
I definitely learned heaps more about this topic, I did learn about it at tafe but just seeing you do it on your own engines made it look simpler and easier to understand
That's exactly what I was aiming for so that's really cool to hear!
I can even understand all of that! To be honest I’ll probably never get to practice what you’ve just taught me but I love this stuff 💞
Years ago I had a mate that has his clearances too tight and burned a few valves, cost a lot to fix. So this can be valuable information. Open minds learn!!
Thanks Dani and Mars
Ah yes that's something I didn't go into too much detail is what can happen if theyre too tight. Definitely not a fun time and alot more costly consequences.
Glad it made sense though!
Great video Danie. That’s was brilliant, I’m not a mechanic and I understood it all. Keep ‘‘em coming. 👍😃
Ahh that's good!! Aim was for exactly that:)
Thanks for this Danie, I'm about to do this for my Tojo hzj105 valves while I have the tappet cover off for the timing belt & water pump & thermostat. Perfect timing for me :)
Nice Vid Danie, takes me back 20 years to to when I work in the mines doing clearances on Cummins KTA50s , 16 cylinders to do in +60'c Powerhouse.
That would have been a job and a half!
BIG Thanks Danie...It's more helpful (for some of us) than I think you know, Cheers.
That makes me so happy to read thank you!
Fantastic video, thank you!
The artistic skills r unreal
Hahaa sarcasm? 🤣
Excellent explanation & information! Many Thanks Danie for your Video
Wonderful to hear!! Thank you for watching:)
Hi from Mexico , love all your videos
Thank you!
Thanks Danie.. Will try this on my 2H. Cheers
Will be same as the 12ht let me know how you go!
Thanks for doing that Danie. My little lux engine is shim style adjustment, that was good for me to know and now can proceed. Thanks from FNQ
That's awesome! Thank you
Great video Danny very informative and very educational keep up the great work cannot wait to see more videos and the return of the 60 series build
That's wonderful to hear thank you!
Great Video Danie... the explanation of it all was great..👍
One thing I've done before with my 1HDT is I was able to swap a couple of shims around with each other and then I only had to order 2 shims to fix them all...👍
That's what I was able to do with a few of mine too super handy:)
You bloody rippa, love ya work champ 🏆..
Keep up the good work chop...
Thank you!! Will do:)
Awesome thanks for the explanation
I gotta be number 1 fan by now surelyyy always giving some of the best feedback to be feeded back
"To be feeded back" hahah🤣
@@DanieSimpson 😂😂😂finished work for the week lmfao, cans cans cans
@@dylanmangelsdorf111 niceeeee
Good video Danie! Keep up the good work!
thank you!
Just lay off us 35+ year olds haha you will be one of us one day!
This is super helpful I have a 75 with a 1hz and I am confident enough to have a crack at adjusting my valve clearances
Ah that's awesome to hear!! Have any other questions let me know!
does your 1hz rattle?
@@joshuarajamony9025 no
Very informative thanks 👍
No worries at all:)
Love the marsie boy! Great vid professor danie. "Big explosion...pow" love it 😂
Hahaha it's the pony and the glasses. Trust me if I had a long enough skirt and blouse I would have had a better crack at it haha
@@DanieSimpson or a lab coat?!
@@DanieSimpson future mechanical video closet upgrades! ^^
When I said yes on your Insta pole I new it will come in handy well, it now will after being quoted something stupid to adjust my valves I’ll just do it my bloody self
You just bought back memories of watching my father and helping hime do rebuilds and maintaince on our cars.
He djd his trade in the miltary, that was around the 50s, he left the army after 22yrs as an Articifer Warrant Office (WO1) for those who dont understand its RAEME equivelant of an RSM
Well there ya go! I would have done my trade at most likely the same base:)
@@DanieSimpson
Bandiana Training Centre, cant remember the right name and my old man has since passed on so cant ask him
@@Dennis-zr3fb yes that's the one:)
Very very good way to explain now even lady's can adjust there own lose valves fantastic as spot on
Appreciate it thank you!
Great teaching skills Danie, esp with those glasses. Well done on another great video.
Ah that's awesome to hear!! Gotta have the glasses hahah
I have no use for this information but.... it was interesting, well shot and well delivered. Nice work!
ahh was waiting to see comments from people who still watched even though they cant use the info! thank you appreciate it!
Gday Danie, you have explained this in a way I can understand, massive thanks mate, really appreciate it, I’m not that good at reading so I learn by watching and listening, bloody awesome, cheers
Ahhh that's such a massive relief to hear! I stress so much wondering if I just rambled on too long or not enough! So many people are the same so I really see the need for more demonstrations that aren't just reading straight from a manual
@@DanieSimpson please keep these types of videos coming, I’m sure there’s a lot of people out there the same as me that need to be shown hands on to understand…
@@MattysWorkshop noted!! Can do! It's a fine line because alot of jobs to do properly take hours and have alot of info so hard to fit down into a watchable video. Maybe might look at making another channel just for mechanical style videos and how to etc
@@DanieSimpson brilliant idea, I believe it’ll do well simply from the way you explain what your doing, there’s no bullshit in your videos, straight to the point which is what’s needed…
@@MattysWorkshop ah love it thank you!!
thank you for sharing detail video
No worries at all!
This video brings back memory for me at 20 years ago. Same engine on hj61 and a Nissan safari sd32 . It 2year as a mechanic apprentice part time.
Yeah nice!! That's a fair time ago!
this is absolutely great !! thanks heaps !!
Anytime!
Danie you done good, 40+ years working on every type of infernal confusion engine's. Suck-Squeeze-Bang-Blow different applications happen depending on use.
I prefer the engines with rocker tappet adjustment having to re-shim an engine gets more complicated the more cams double overhead cams variable valve timing.
Oh same! The ohv is definitely a far simpler engine design in general. It's a pleasure working on the 12ht
40 plus years working on dirty diesel engines you should be the CEO of Toyota by now.
@@grimreaper6112 Yeah you can imagine the changes I have seen, and the number of courses I had to go on every time something new came out along with doing the Transport Ministry testing also.
Awesome video
thank you!!
Gr8 video dannie very informative
Ah that's awesome to hear!
Nice experience
Great vid Danie. Miss the adjustable type rockers on the motorbikes to, those shim kits are so bloody expensive for a set. Look forward to your next vid, they're always a good watch.
Thank you!! Yeah certainly not cheap!
This video reminded me of the first video of yours I had come across which was current at the time and was the one where you replaced the cracked CV and you just got to it and took it apart with hand tools as it sat outside ( with the flies and chickens helping LOL ) and of course you got grease on yourself since dealing with that style hubs is a messy job. While I didn't know then that you were a mechanic I thought how does this young lady seem to know all the moves and understand what she is working on. Anyway that first video hooked me and I subscribed on the spot. Boy how the years fly as that isn't far from three years ago !.
Oh that's so awesome I have always wondered if the people watching back then still are! In my latest video I reference that chicken video when I'm taking about that Stanley tool kit haha
@@DanieSimpson I will admit I had gone back and watched it from beginning to end before I made that comment and had a good laugh at umm "that guy" stumbling around in the pile of stuff looking for tools as you made the comment that is why you try to have your own tools. The good thing is since that time, you still have your trusty Toyota and I have a feeling quite a few faithful followers from then as well.
@@charlesb4267 hahah yes I remember that! Yeah ol ute will always be with me!
Great job and very well done 👏 ✔ 👍
Thank you!
Thanks dani. I have the genuine books. 2 vehicles with 1hz. Plus more in family ! The cruisers are thick in the family and friends. So im goin to learn this now thanks. Cheers Patrick 🍺🍺🍺
Sounds like an incredible family! Hopefully it helps!
Your vids are really cool. Love marsie boy! 👍
Thank you!! Yeah he's pretty cute sometimes
Vi've Le Valve Adjustment!
Go the bucket and shim!
Go the 1HZ.
Great work Dani
Thank you appreciate that! Can't say I enjoy the bucket and shim haha
@@DanieSimpson ha ha!
Yeh but it is what it is for a reason!
I'm just really happy to see your channel back and stronger than ever!
Thank you. Excellent content. You made my Sunday night.
A few more weeks and I'll be able to get back home to FNQ !
@@thewhiteoxoverland it's good to be back! So lovely to read your comments:)
Love the video, Mars is a great shop dog.
He is sometimes untill a customer isn't a fan of dogs haha
Hello from Newcastle
Hello!!
You’re a dream come true… :)
YES DANIE SIMMO!!! ❤️
Been awhile since I've been called simmo! Hahah love it
Awesome vid. Theres nothing in English (from what i could find) about how to do the shims on a HZ. Finally someone has done it.. read the manual but i work better visually. Cheers for the vid. I'll be doing my valves soon 🤙
I am exactly the same I enjoy watching and listening as opposed to reading so I'm so glad this helped! Let me know how you go!
@@DanieSimpson i most definitely will
@@DanieSimpson so I'm finally get around to getting the shims sorted. going off TDC and spinning it, I couldn't see the exact marks, cos everything was in the way. Cos I'm completely new to it, as long at the lobe is off the shim, I should get true measurements still?
Good info for newbs.....
Fortunately I started young.😊
We all start somewhere:)
@@DanieSimpson hi, didn't mean it in a bad way. I still learn stuff.
Keep teaching.
@@craigbarrett2278 didn't take it in a bad way:)
You are the best l love you..
good job😍
Thank you!
Nailed it.
Love the Vid, good detailed info. But you need to get your self some De-Solv-it from bunnings, envoir safe, natural cirtus and Aussie made and owned "no I am not associatedwith them". Put some on a rag before you start and just use it on you and your tools, keeps everything super clean and oil and grease just wipes off. Not sure my wife would let me in the house after working on my cars if I didn't. Keep up the good work, can't wait to see more on the 60 series.
I have some amazing tool and hand wipes already thank you! Showed them in my 60 part 2 video:)
You make me want to learn more about diesels haha but my let myself down by owning petrol patrols hahah 😂🤘🏼 #shedlife
haha theyre always good fun too!
New sub, just popped in feed.
I did read somewhere I have a ‘72 Falcon 4x4 project, XY? Any chance of a short vid on that, would love one but near impossible to find.
Thank you for the sub! Yeah definitely will be in the future
I’m gonna say the 2h is a similar way to adjust as the 12ht ?? Maybe slightly different specs, I’ll consult the workshop manual, great vid !!!
I was taught suck, squeeze, bang , blow but I did my time over 20 years ago lol, keep up the great work 🍺👍
2H is the same as the 12ht. Same clearances I believe. The injection timing definitely differs between the two though
At the risk of sounding nerdy here, I love the thought that in an internal combustion engine there is a split second every revolution where the entire piston/conrod actually stops completely before it goes into the next cycle, think about that next time your redlining your engine haha, nerdy I know, but frickin amazing when you really think about it 🤷♂️🍺👍
Oh I love learning little features like that. I remember in trade school the more I learnt about combustion engines the more I was intrigued! So much cab be going on in a split second
Split second??
Degrees.
The faster the engine spins, the smaller the time frame the piston is "floating".
Michael Binns yes it is a fraction of a second the piston stops every revolution in each cylinder
WE NEED TO SEE DANI ON 4WD ACTION
Fantastic 👏 👏 👏
Cheers!!
Love learning new things, thanks for being a great instructor
Stickerrrrrsssssss 😍
Well explained young lady….. I see a career for you in this and I agree with your friend, we were taught in trade scHool on SUCK SQUSH BANG BLOW,on the 4 cycles of a 4 stroke
Thank you that's awesome to hear! Already made it my career haha we were taught why 'suck' is a poor choice of word for it but that's a whole other video
Thanks! Just got the 2H done and gained an extra HP I reckon
I've got a FTE if you want to do valve clearance on a descent motor. Haha
Good job!
Haha cheers!
the fte is almost more painful than the bucket and shim style. You can keep that hah
I have both, FTE and 12HT love them equally, I'd rather do clearances on both of these than the have to order shims for the 1Hz! Great Vid Danie, well explained and Vid quality was great because your hands are small .. I can actually see what you and how you are adjusting👌
@@Oz4me_craig ah that's so good that's what I was hoping for! I unfortunately didn't get as much good footage adjusting the 1hz as I'd have liked, damn 2019 danie haha
Hi 👋 you re definitely the best on you tube !! Where are you located , I ve got a small problem , I m doing my mechanic but I want to confirm something with you , I m actually in Melbourne , let me know how to contact you I can pay for your time
When are you going to take some trips you need to hook up with 24-7 and go on a trip with those guys that would be some great content 👌 👍
Hah I unfortunately working 3 jobs keeps me pretty busy up here. We just do local trips around North and central qld mainly
Love the safety boots
Gave me better way to do the job than any way I was doing it
Ah that's good to hear! Thongs or boots there is never an inbetween
puppy so cute! i wish i could get my bt50 fixed its ticking :( i think its lifters or valves but dont know. currently mazda have it ahaha
Hopefully nothing too expensy!
Thing that always makes my head hurt when replacing shims is trying to figure out which (if any) of the shims can be swapped around to other valves.
Back in the day, I used to grind valve shims on a lathe but, honestly, I was always a bit worried about whether it'd change the hardness of the shim and reduce it's life.
In the old days, when an engine could only go 25,000 between major services, that probably wasn't a big deal but now we've got engines that can last 100,000 miles between major services it's probably best to use factory shims to ensure they're good for that mileage.
Also, speaking as a 50 year old, the thing about "35 - too old" stung a bit. :-/
Good job. Feeler gauge should be oiled or at least I was told, so I don't mind to be wrong. When doing 1hz, engine should be very cold because almost any heat changes specs.
Yes correct 1hz cold, 12ht hot. Feeler gauges should be wiped with oil to prevent rust if your storing them.
Danni why didn’t you make an adjustment to compensate for the engine being cold, when the Spec was .intake 008 exhaust.014 then engine is HOT. As you pointed out metal expand when hot therefore when your engine is hot your clearances will be tight? 👍🏴
As mentioned on the screen and in the description the 12ht is adjusted HOT not cold. What I was doing was simply for ease of explanation and demonstration. That engine has much more work to do on it before it goes back in the vehicle.
@@DanieSimpson would be interesting in seeing the actual clearance once reinstalled and run up to temperature to see the difference. Handy knowledge for future.
Keep safe and well and give Marsie boy a hug from me
@@alasdairhamilton1574 engine was rebuilt prior to it being pulled out and the clearances were just reset back to what they were after the demonstration. So once the engine is running the valves will all be within the spec I listed on the video
I love learning! Ooo professor Mars just interrupted 👀
Professor Mars was being so grumpy during that class session haha
@@DanieSimpson that’s what happens when you don’t throw his flappy disc! Haha
@@liamkable8773 not wrong hahhaa
I remember my dad showing me the firing order on a petrol 202, order was 153624
Is the firing order in a diesel different,?
Love ya work, great to see a girl
Showing initiative,
Long time.e subi
Nah just some 6cyls have different firing orders not necessarily a difference between petrol or diesel. But that order you listed is the most common
@@DanieSimpson nicely done, thank you, Davi b
Is there any dyno info on just what we loose with loose valves?
on what power loss you have? possibly but normally its something you would rectify straight away not dyno. The loss would all depend on how far out of spec they are. If they are all loose, the engine will be incredibly noisy even at operating temp. This is something you would notice most likely before a drop in performance
@@DanieSimpson I would just like to see a 4cyl hooked up to a dyno with correct valve settings, run it to see what it can put out, then run it a couple more times with it out of spec different amounts to see how being too loose or too tight affects output and performance. Ive never seen anyone do this. I know tight might burn the valves and loose is a bit noisy… but other than that is there any real harm or worry?
@@frankcherry3810 yes the valves have a spec for optimal combustion and exhaust. Anything out side of this spec will cause a loss in performance and incomplete combustion. Noone will have done it because the optimal specs have already been determined and we know anything outside of this isn't ideal or practical.
@@DanieSimpson Yes you are right. I was just wanting numbers
You really got to love marsie boy love ya vids danie and also would love to see a olboy sticker on the back of my hzj75 as olboy was my inspiration to buy my one
Really isn't a video without him is it hahah oh really?? What year did you get?
For the algorithm!
Isn't a simpler way to do it to just adjust the clearances after each valve has opened and closed?
But the positive is most Toyota's that run a bucket/shim design, this valve adjustment will in theory apply to them too.
This video shows both ohv and ohc valve adjustment. And Toyota has a range of different engine arrangements not just ohc
@@DanieSimpson Oh i know, i've got two cars, one happens to be a Toyota. Except i hate to imagine how much of a bi**h it'll be when they eventually need doing haha !
24 Valves, quad cam... in a V configuration 😂
Fun times ahead
I think doing the FT/FTE is actually worse than the 1HZ- You need a third hand to hold the bridges still with a shifter while trying to adjust two different adjusters because if you tweak and bend them, you'll pop valve retainers and drop a valve into the cylinder!
It's most definitely painful that's for sure!
You did great I’m sure this will help a lot of budding 4wders to save a few dollars and then use that money towards a proper tune and not cowboys we can hope
Thank you that's what I'm hoping for! Ahh we can never stop the cowboy tuners haha but always good for a giggle though
