ROCKER ARMS
DESCRIPTION
The rocker arms are made of stamped steel (Fig.
29).
OPERATION
The rocker arms are used as a link between the
camshaft and valves. As the camshaft rotates the
lobes of the camshafts apply downward pressure on
the rocker arms. This pressure is then transmitted to
the valves which causes the valves to open.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable.

DESCRIPTION
The 2.5L Common Rail Diesel engine is equipped
with two nodular cast iron balance shafts in a cast
aluminum carrier. The balance shaft assembly is
mounted to the engine block (Fig. 88).
OPERATION
The balance shaft is driven by the crankshaft. The
balance shafts are connected by heelical gears. The
dual-counter rotating shafts decrease second order
vertical shaking forces caused by component move-
ment.
