to dry them and remove any traces of varnish.

Note:
To promote cleanliness, it is advisable to
inspect and assemble each valve lifter before clean­
ing the next valve lifter.
g. Inspect inner and outer surfaces of valve lifter
body for blow
holes
and scoring. Replace valve lifter assembly if body is roughly scored or grooved,

or
if it has a wall blow
hole
which would permit oil
leakage from lower chamber. The prominent wear
pattern just above lower end of body is not a
defect

unless it is definitely grooved or scored; it is caused
by side thrust of cam against body while the lifter

moves
vertically in its guide. A valve lifter body
which
has rotated in its guide
will
have a horizontal

wear
pattern, while a non-rotating body
will
have
a
square wear pattern with a very slight depression

near
the center. Inspect the cam contact surface on lower end of lifter body. Replace the valve lifter
assembly if this surface is excessively worn, galled

or
otherwise damaged.

Note:
Fig. Dl-21 illustrates the wear pattern of the
rotating and non-rotating valve lifters. The two
illustrations shown under B, "Normal Wear Pat­

terns"
are the conditions encountered under general
use and replacement is not warranted unless the depth of the
groove
formed by the cam
lobe
is in

excess
of .020" [0,51 mm.] or the lifters do not
operate properly. The two illustrations shown under

A,
"Incorrect Wear Patterns" are normally accom­ panied by excessive wear or scoring of the respec­
tive camshaft lobe.
This
type of wear is unsatis­
factory and lifter replacement is necessary.

h.
Inspect outer surface of plunger for scratches

or
score marks.
Small
score marks with rough
satiny finish
will
cause the plunger to seize when 12751

hot but operate normally when cool. Using a magni­
fying glass, inspect the check ball seat for defects.
Defects in check ball seat, or scores or scratches on
outer surface of plunger which can be felt with

a
fingernail, are reason to replace the valve lifter
assembly.
This
does
not apply to the slight
edge

which
may
sometimes
be present when the lower end of plunger
extends
below the ground inner
sur­

face of the body.
This
edge
is not detrimental un­

less
it is sharp or burred. A blackened appearance
is not necessarily a defective condition. Sometimes

such
a discoloration
gives
the outer surface of
plunger a ridged or fluted appearance. If the condi­
tion
does
not cause improper operation, it may be
disregarded.

i.
Replace the push rod seat if the area contacted
by the push rod is rough or otherwise damaged.
Replace
any push rod which has a rough or dam­
aged ball end.

j.
Using a magnifying glass, carefully examine the
check valve ball for nicks, imbedded material or
other
defects
which would prevent proper seating.
Such
defects
would cause intermittently noisy
operation.
Even
though no
defects
are found, it is
always advisable to discard the old ball and use

a
new one when reassembling the valve lifter,
k.
Examine check valve spring for wear or damage.

Replace
spring if it is distorted or shows evidence
of wear.

I.
Replace a check valve retainer if cracked or if

it
has heavily pounded area
between
the two holes.

A
small bright
spot
where the ball contacts the

retainer
is the normal condition.

m.
Replace the plunger spring only if it is distorted

or
damaged. Tests have shown the plunger springs
seldom break down in service.

Inspection

a.
With
a
wire brush and suitable cleaning solvent,

clean
any
sludge
or
dirt
from hollow core
and

oil
ports
of the
rocker
arm
shaft, from bores
of
shaft supports, and from
oil
passage
in
each rocker

arm.
Dry
these
parts with compressed
air.
Clean
all
other parts with cleaning solvent and dry with
compressed
air.

b.
Inspect
the
rocker
arm
shaft
for
scoring
or

abrasion
at the
rocker arm bearing areas and, with

a
surface plate, check
for
bent
or
distorted condi­
tion. Inspect
the
rocker arms
for
excessive wear,

scoring,
or
abrasion
of
bearing surfaces.
Check
for

loose
or
damaged valve stem
or
push
rod
inserts.
Inspect
the
spacer springs
for
breaks, deformity,

and
loss
of
tension. Replace
any
visibly worn
or

damaged parts. Inspect
the
mounting
bolts
for

damage.
Repair
damaged threads
or
replace
as
necessary.

c.
Measure rocker
arm
shaft diameter
and
bore
diameters
of
rocker arms.
This
clearance should be .0017"
to
.0032"
[0,0432
a
0,0812
mm.]. If
necessary, replace worn rocker arms, shaft,
or
both.

Dl-60.
Rocker
Arm Assembly

Note:
All three shaft supports
of
each rocker arm
assembly are identical and interchangeable. In
the

description
to
follow, "center"
and
"outer" refer only
to
their position
on the
shaft.

Caution:
There
are two
different
types
of
rocker

arms,
three
of
each type,
in
each rocker arm shaft
assembly. They
are not
interchangeable. One face
of each rocker arm
has a
notch; when installed
on

the shaft, this notched face must touch
a
shaft support.
92

'Jeep'
UNIVERSAL
SERIES SERVICE
MANUAL

Dl Caution:
Oil ports of the rocker arm shaft must
coincide with oil return passages of the rocker

arms.
If they do not,
engine
oil has no return path

from
the cylinder head to the crankcase; in that
case,
engine
oil flows down the valve
stems
and

burns
in the cylinders.
There
is a notch at one end of each rocker arm shaft. When rocker arms
are
properly installed on the shaft, this notch
will

be at front of right rocker arm shaft and at
rear
of left rocker arm shaft. Refer to
Figs.
Dl-25 and

Dl-26.

a.
Position center support on rocker arm shaft;

insert
one shaft assembly attaching bolt through
support and shaft to hold support in position.

Valve Removal

a.
Place cylinder head on clean, smooth surface.

b.
Remove each valve assembly from cylinder
head as follows. Using suitable spring compressor, compress valve spring and remove two valve re­

tainers
from valve stem. Release spring compressor,

and
remove spring retainer and valve spring from
valve stem. Refer to Fig. Dl-27.

Note:
Valve retainers are copper-colored for identi­
fication purposes only.

c.
Withdraw valve from
bottom
of cylinder head.
Valves
should be identified so they can be installed

in
original location.

D1-62.
Cylinder
Head and Valve Cleaning
and
Inspection

a.
Remove carbon from combustion chamber of
cylinder
heads, using care to avoid scratching the head of valve seat surfaces. A
soft
wire brush is
suitable for this purpose.

b.
Clean
carbon and gum
deposits
from valve guide
bores with a standard-size valve guide reamer.

Refer
to Fig. Dl-28.

c.
Clean

d.
Measure clearance of each valve stem in cor­
responding valve guide. For intake valves, this
clearance
should be .0012" to .0032" [0,0305 a

0,0813
mm.]. For exhaust valves, this clearance should be .0015" to .0035"
[0,0381
a
0,0889
mm.]
at top of guide and .002" to .004"
[0,051
a 0,102 mm.] at bottom of guide. If this clearance is exces­
sive, valve guides must be reamed with .004" [0,102 mm.] oversized reamer J-5830-1 and valves

replaced
by new valves with oversize stems.

Dl-63.
Cylinder
Head
and Valve
Repair
a.
If a valve stem has excessive clearance in its
guide, the guide must be reamed .004" [0,102 mm.]
oversize. Valves are available with oversize stems
to fit this valve guide diameter.

b.
Grind
valve faces or replace valves if necessary.

Valve
faces must be ground at an angle of 45 degrees. If a valve head must be ground to a
knife
edge
to obtain a true face, the valve should
be replaced.

c.
If necessary, grind valve seats at an angle of 45 degrees.
Grinding
a valve seat decreases valve
spring
pressure and increases the width of the seat.

The
nominal width of the valve seat is
[
1,59
mm.].
If a valve seat is wider than %" [1,98 mm.]
after grinding, it should be narrowed to specified

width
by the use of 20-degree and 70-degree stones.
Improper
operation of a hydraulic valve lifter may

result
if valve and seat are refinished to the extent
that the valve stem is raised more than .050" [1,27 mm.] above normal height. In this case, it
is necessary to grind off the end of the valve stetti or replace parts.

Note:
The normal height of the valve stem above
the valve spring seat surface of the head is
1.925"
[4,889 cm.].

d.
Lightly
lap the valves into seats with fine grind­
ing compound. The refacing and reseating should
leave the refinished surfaces smooth and true so that a minimum of lapping
will
be required. Ex­
cessive lapping
will
groove the valve face and pre­
vent
good
valve seating.
e. Test valve seats for concentricity with guides,
and
for proper valve seating. Coat a small segment
of the valve face lightly with Prussian blue pig­ ment.. Insert the valve stem into its guide and

turn
the valve face against the seat. If the valve seat is concentric with the valve guide, a
mark

will
be made all around the seat. If the seat is not concentric with the guide, a
mark
will
be made
on only one side of the seat.

Clean
all pigment from both valve and seat. .Next,
coat a small segment of the valve seat lightly with

Prussian
blue pigment. Again insert the valve stem into its guide and rotate the valve face against the
seat. If the valve face is concentric with the valve
stem, and if the valve is seating all the way around,
pigment
will
coat the valve face with a uniform
band
around its entire perimeter. Both of
these

tests
are necessary to prove that proper valve seat­
ing is obtained.
f. Inspect the valve springs visually for corrosion,

breaks,
and distortion.
With
a valve spring tester
check
each valve spring for proper tension. When

a
valve spring is compressed to a length of
1.640"
[4,166 cm.] (closed-valve condition), it should
have a tension of 64 lb. [29,03 kg.]. When a valve
spring
is compressed to a length of
1.260"
[3,200
cm.] (open-valve condition), it should have ten­ sion of 168 lb. [76,205 kg.]. Replace any valve
spring
which is visibly damaged or
does
not
meet

tension specifications.

Dl-64.
Valve Installation

Lubricate
valve stems with engine oil.
Install
valves, valve springs, spring retainers, and valve

retainers
on the cylinder head. Use the same equipment and reverse procedure used for removal.

Cylinder
Block
and Crankshaft
Rear
Oil Seals

Braided
fabric seals are pressed into
grooves
of
cylinder
block and
rear
main bearing cap, to
rear

of the oil collecting groove, to seal against oil leak­ age at the crankshaft. Refer to Fig. Dl-32.

FIG.
Dl-32—INSTALLING
CRANKSHAFT REAR
OIL
SEAL

1—Neoprene
Seal
2—Fabric
Seal

A
neoprene composition (stick) seal is installed in
grooves
in the sides of the
rear
main bearing cap
to seal against leakage in the joints
between
the
cap and cylinder block. The neoprene composition
expands in the presence of oil and heat.
This
seal
is undersize when newly installed. Refer to Fig.

Dl-32.

a.
The braided fabric seal can be installed in the

cylinder
block only when the crankshaft is re­ moved; however, the seal in the cap can be replaced
whenever the cap is removed. Remove oil seal and place new seal in groove, with both ends projecting
above parting surface of cap. Force seal into
groove

by rubbing down with hammer handle or smooth
stick
until seal projects above the
groove
not more

than
[1,59 mm.]. Cut ends off flush with
sur­

face of cap, using sharp knife or razor blade.
Lubricate
the seal with heavy
engine
oil just before
installation.

Caution:
The
engine
must be operated at slow
speed when first started after new braided seal
has been installed.
b. The neoprene composition seal is slightly longer

than
the
grooves
in the bearing cap. The seal must
not be cut to length. The seals are installed after the bearing cap is installed in the block and torqued
firmly
in place. Dip the neoprene seals in kerosene
approximately IV2 minutes, then install seals into
bearing cap grooves. The protruding ends of the seals are, again, squirted with kerosene, wiped off,

and
peaned over with a hammer to be sure of a
seal
at the upper parting line
between
the cap and

cylinder
block.

Dl-73.
Main
Bearing and Crankshaft
Installation

Refer
to Fig. Dl-6.

This
procedure assumes that crankshaft main bear­
ings have been inspected and proven satisfactory,

or
that new crankshaft main bearings of appropriate size have been selected. If necessary, check or select
main
bearings as described in Par. Dl-41 and
Pars.

Dl-42 and Dl-43.

a.
Install
four upper main bearing halves in
seats

of cylinder block so that prong of each bearing half
fits into corresponding notch of seat. Flanged thrust
bearing must be installed in the second seat from
front of engine.
Install
a new upper crankshaft
rear
oil seal in the cylinder block as described in

Par.
Dl-72.

Caution:
Upper main bearing halves have an oil groove, while lower halves are plain. They must
not be interchanged.
b. Apply
engine
oil to upper bearing surfaces.

Install
the crankshaft so that its four journals rest

in
the upper bearing halves.
c. Seat all four lower main bearing halves in cor­
responding bearing caps.
Install
a new lower
crank­

shaft
rear
oil seal and cylinder block
rear
oil seal
described in
Par.
Dl-72, a and b.
Lubricate
all lower

main
bearing surfaces with
engine
oil. Position bear­ ing caps to cylinder block and crankcase journals.

Install
two cap bolts,
loosely,
at each cap.

d.
It is necessary to align thrust surfaces of the
second main bearing whenever it has been removed

from
the engine. To do this, pry the crankshaft

back
and forth several times, throughout its entire end travel, with cap
bolts
of second main bearing
only finger tight.
e. Tighten alternate cap
bolts
of each main bearing

cap,
a little at a time, until they have been tight­ ened to 80 to 110 lb-ft. [11,1 a 15,2 kg-m.] torque.
D1-74. Crankshaft End Play Check

To
measure crankshaft end play, mount a dial
indicator
on the cylinder block and index its plung­

er
to either a front or
rear
face of one crankshaft
counterweight. Pry the crankshaft to one limit
of its end travel and adjust the dial indicator to
zero. Pry the crankshaft to its
opposite
end travel

limit
and
note
end play as indicated by the dial

indicator.
Crankshaft end play tolerances are .004"
to .008" [0,102 a
0,204
mm.]. If end play is too great, it can be corrected only by replacement of
the second main (thrust) bearing.

Dl-75.
Piston and Connecting Rod
Installation

This
procedure assumes that connecting rod bear­ ings have been inspected and proven satisfactory,

or
that new connecting rod bearings of appropriate 96

'Jeep'
UNIVERSAL
SERIES SERVICE
MANUAL

Dl
size have
been
selected. If necessary, check or
select

connecting rod bearings as described in Par. Dl-49.

Note:
When a piston and connecting rod assembly
is properly installed, the oil spurt
hole
in the con­ necting rod
will
face the camshaft. The rib on the

edge
of the bearing cap
will
be on the same side
as the conical
boss
on the connecting rod web;
these
marks (rib and boss)
will
be toward the other
connecting rod on the same crankpin. The notch
on the piston
will
face the front of the
engine.

a.
Be certain that cylinder bores, pistons, connect­
ing rod bearings and crankshaft journals are absolutely clean. Coat all bearing surfaces with

engine
oil.
b. Before installing a piston and connecting rod as­
sembly into its bore, rotate the crankshaft so that
the corresponding crankpin is moved downward, away from the cylinder bore.
c. Remove bearing cap from connecting rod. With
upper bearing half seated in connecting rod, install connecting rod guides. These
guides
hold the upper
bearing half in place and prevent damage to the

crankshaft
crankpin during installation of the con­
necting rod and piston assembly.

d.
Be certain that the gap in the oil ring rails faces

upward,
toward center of
engine.
Gaps of the com­
pression rings shall not be aligned with each other

or
with the oil ring
rails.

e. Lubricate the piston and rings. Compress the
rings with a suitable piston ring compressor; install
the piston and connecting rod assembly from top of cylinder bore. Refer to Fig. Dl-33.

f.
Install
bearing cap, with lower bearing half, on connecting rod. Torque bolt nuts to 30 to 40 lb-ft. [4,1 a 5,5 kg-m.].
