ENGINE

Inspection
and
Overhaul

Cylinder
Head
and
Valves

Clean
all

parts
thoroughly
and
remove
carbon

deposits
with

a

blunt

scraper
Remove

any
rust
which
has
accumulated
in

the
water

passages
and
blow

through
the
oil
holes
with

compres

sed
air
to
make
sure

that

they
are

clear

Measure
the

joint
face
of
the

cylinder
head
for
out
of
true

as
shown
in

Fig

The
surface
should
be
checked
at
various

positions
using
a

straight
edge
and
feeler

gauge
The
permissible

amount
of
distortion
is
0
05

in
it
will
be

necessary
to

Clean
each
valve

by
washing
in

petrol
and

carefully
examine

the
stems
and
heads

If
the
stem
is
worn

damaged
or
not

straight
the
valve
must

be
discarded
Check
the

diameter
of
the
stem
with
a

If

the

should
be
refaced
on
a

Replacement

The

for
the

inlet

VALVE
SEAT
INSERTS

Replacing

The
valve
seat
inserts
should
be
replaced
if

they
show

signs

of

pitting
and
excessive
wear

The
inserts
can
be
removed

by
boring
out
to
a

depth
which

will
cause
them
to

collapse
although
care
must
be
taken
not

to
bore
beyond
the
bottom
face
of
the
recess

in
the

cylinder

VALVE
CLEARANCES

Adjusting

Incorrect
valve
clearance
will
affect
the

performance
of

the

engine
and

may
damage
the
valves
and
valve
seats
Insuf

ficient
valve
clearance
will
result
in
loss
of

power
and

may

prevent
the
valve
from

seating
properly
Excessive
clearance

causes
the
valve
to
seat
and
reduces
the
amount
of

valve
lift

This
will
result
in

noisy
operation
with

damage
to
the
valves

and
seats

Adjustment
is
made
with
the

engine
switched
off

and
should
be
carried
out

initially
with
the

engine
cold
to

allow
the

engine
to
run
Final

adjustments
are
made
after

wanning

up
the

engine
to

its
Donnal

operating
temperature
The

engine
can
be
rotated

by
removing
the

sparking
plugs
to
release

the

cylinder
compressions
then

selecting

top
gear
and

pushing

the
vehicle
backwards
and
forwards

The
cold
valve
clearances
should
be
set
to
0
20
mm

0
0079
in
for
the
inlet
valves
and
0
25
mm
0
0098
in
for

the
exhaust
valves
Check
the
clearance
between
the
valve
and

rocker

using
a
feeler

gauge
as
shown
in

Fig
A
40
Slacken
the

locknut
and
turn
the
adjusting
screw
until
the

specified
clearance

is
obtained
then

tighten
the
locknut
and
recheck
the
clearance

The
feeler

gauge
should

just
be
free
to
move
between
the
rocker

and
valve
When
the
cold
valve
clearances
have
been
set
run
the

engine
until
it
reaches
its
normal

operating
temperature
then

switch
off
and

adjust
the
valve
clearances
with
the

engine
warm

to

0
25
mm
0
0098
in
for
the
inlet
valves
and
0

OIL
PUMP
Removal
and

Dismantling

The
rotor

type
oil

pump
is
mounted
at
the
bottom
of
the

front

timing
cover
and
driven

by
the
distributor
drive
shaft

assembly

Overhaul
of
the

pump
will

require
careful
measurement

of

the
various
clearances
to
determine
the
amount

of
wear

which

has
taken

place
If

any
part
is
found
to
be
worn
it

may
be
neces

sary
to

replace
the
entire
oil

pump
assembly

Assembly
and
Installation

Assembly
is
a
reversal
of
the

dismantling
procedure
Before

installing
the

engine
it
will
be

necessary
to

rotate

the

engine
until
the

on

its

compression

Fill
the

and

align
the

punch

mark
on
the

spindle
with
the
hole
in
the
oil

as
shown

in

not
to

should
be

changed

Draining
is
more

easily
accomplished
after
a

lengthy
run

when
the

being
thoroughly
warm
will
flow

quite
freely

Stand
the

and

place
a

Remove
the
