SPARK PLUG CABLES
The cable contains a synthetic conductor which is easily
damaged. Never stretch or kink the cable. Disconnect
the cable from spark plug and the ignition coil.
The original equipment cables and the ignition coil are
marked to show correct location of the cables. If spark
plug cables or the ignition coil are replaced previously,
before cables are removed from the ignition coil, mark
the cables and the coil so they can be reconnected in
the same position.
Inspection
NOTE: Never puncture the spark plug cable’s insulation
with a needle or the pointed end of a probe into the
cable. An increase in resistance would be created which
would cause the cable to become defective.
1. If the cable has broken or cracked insulation, it must be replaced.
2. If the terminals are corroded or loose, the cable must be replaced.
3. Check that the cable resistance does not exceed specified value.

1.4 Engine Construction
Cylinder Block
The cylinder block (1) is constructed from aluminium alloy
with cast-in-place iron cylinder bore liners.
Each of the four copper-infiltrated sintered steel main
bearing caps are attached to the cylinder block by six bolts.
Along with two outer and two inner bolts, two side bolts are
used in the deep skirt block for increased block stiffness.
The crankshaft thrust bearing is mounted in the third main
bearing cap.
To prevent aeration, oil return from the valve train and
cylinder heads is channelled away from the reciprocating
components through oil drain back passages incorporated
into the cylinder heads and engine block. Pressure
actuated piston oil cooling jets are mounted between
opposing cylinders.
Figure 6A1 – 14
Cylinder Heads
The cylinder heads (1) are semi-permanent mould cast
aluminium with powdered metal valve seat inserts and
valve guides.
Figure 6A1 – 15
Each cylinder head contains four valves per cylinder. The
valves (1) are actuated by the rocker arms (2) that pivot on
stationary hydraulic lash adjusters (3), which are oil-fed to
maintain valve / rocker lash.

The separate exhaust and intake camshafts are supported
by four bearings machined into the cylinder head. The front
camshaft bearing cap is used as a thrust control surface for
each camshaft.

A tube (4) is pressed into each cylinder head in three
places that shields each spark plug. An ignition coil
assembly is mounted directly on each spark plug, through
each spark plug tube.

secondary ignition circuit is grounded out during
diagnosis.
A light rattle/tapping noise may indicate a valve train/upper engine concern, while a low rumble/knocking may indicate a
crankshaft, piston or lower engine concern.
Cause Correction
Oil filter anti-drain back valve faulty. Replace the oil filter adaptor, refer to 3.3 Oil Filter
Adaptor.
Incorrect oil viscosity. Drain the engine oil and replace with the correct viscosity
oil, refer to 3.1 Engine Oil.
High camshaft stationary hydraulic lash adjuster (SHLA)
leak down rate. Replace the SHLA as required, refer to 3.21 Stationary
Hydraulic Lash Adjuster.
W orn crankshaft thrust bearing. Inspect and replace the crankshaft and/or bearings as
required, refer to 4.6 Crankshaft and Main Bearings.
Damaged or faulty oil filter by-pass valve. 1 Inspect the oil filter by-pass valve for correct
operation.
2 Repair or replace the oil filter adaptor/by-pass valve as required.
