Before inspecting a component for wear or per
forming a dimensional check,
ensure that it is absolutely clean; a slight smear
of grease can conceal an incipient failure. When a component is to be checked dimensionally against figures quoted for it,
use the correct equipment (surface plates, micrometers, dial gauges etc.) in serviceable condition. The use of makeshift
equipment can be dangerous. Reject a component if its dimensio ns are outside the limits quoted, or if damage is apparent.
A part may be refitted if its critical di mension is exactly to the limit size and it is otherwise satisfactory. Use Plastigauge 12
Type PG-1 for checking bearing surface clearance, e.g. big end bearing shell to crank jour nal. Instructions for the use of
Plastigauge and a scale giving bearing clearances in steps of 0.0025 mm (0.0001 in) are supplied with the package.

Precautions
• WAR
NINGS:
WORKING ON THE FUEL SYSTEM RESULTS IN FUEL AND FUEL VAPOUR BEING PRESENT IN THE ATMOSPHERE. FUEL
VAPOUR IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE, HENCE GREAT CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHILST WORKING ON THE FUEL SYSTEM.
ADHERE STRICTLY TO THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:
DO
NOT SMOKE IN THE WORK AREA.
DISP
LAY 'NO SMOKING' SIGNS AROUND THE AREA.
DISCONNECT TH
E BATTERY BEFORE WORKING ON THE FUEL SYSTEM.
DO NOT CONNEC
T/DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS
, USE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT OR OTHER TOOLS OR
ENGAGE IN WORKING PRACTICES WHICH IN ANY WAY MAY RESULT IN THE PRODUCTION OF SPARKS.
ENS
URE THAT A CO2 FIRE EXTINGUISHER IS CLOSE AT HAND.
ENS
URE THAT DRY SAND IS AVAILABLE TO SOAK UP ANY FUEL SPILLAGE.
EMP
TY FUEL USING SUITABLE FIRE PROOF EQUIPMENT IN
TO AN AUTHORIZED EXPLOSION PROOF CONTAINER.
DO NOT EMP
TY FUEL WHILE WORKING IN A WORKSHOP OR A PIT.
ENS
URE THAT WORKING AREA IS WELL VENTILATED.
ENS
URE THAT ANY WORK ON THE FUEL SYSTEM IS ON
LY CARRIED OUT BY EXPERIENCED AND WELL QUALIFIED
MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL.
ENS
URE THAT FUME EXTRACTION EQUIPMENT IS USED WHERE APPROPRIATE.
FUME EXTRACTION EQUIPMENT MUST BE IN OPERATION WHEN SOLVENTS ARE USED E.G. TRICHLOROETHANE,
WHITE SPIRIT, SBP3, METHYLENE CHLORIDE, PERCHLORETHY LENE. DO NOT SMOKE IN THE VICINITY OF VOLATILE
DEGREASING AGENTS.
General workshop practices:
Disc
onnect the grounded termin
al of the vehicle battery.
D
o not apply heat in an attempt to free seized nuts or fitt
ings; as well as causing damage to protective coatings,
there is a risk of damage from stray heat to electronic equipment and brake lines.
Keep oils and solven
ts away from naked flames and other sour
ces of ignition.
Adhere str
ictly to handling and safety inst
ructions given on containers and labels.
E
nsure that a suitab
le form of fire extinguisher is conveniently located.
Wh
en using electrical tools and equipment, inspect the power
lead for damage and check that it is properly earthed.
D
o not leave tools, equipment, spilt oil etc. around the work area.
Working beneath a vehicle:
Wh
enever possible, use a ramp or
pit in preference to jacking.
Posit
ion chocks at the wheels as we
ll as applying the parking brake.
N
ever rely on a jack alone to support a
vehicle; use axle stands, or blocks care fully placed at the jacking points, to
provide a rigid location.
Ch
eck that any lifting equipment used has adeq
uate capacity and is fully serviceable.
Working on air conditioning systems:
D
o not disconnect any pipes of the refrigeration system
unless you are trained and instructed to do so; a refrigerant
is used which can cause blindness if allowed to come into contact with the eyes.
Health Protection
P
rolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness,

iagnosis and Testing
General Not
es
1.
1. Factory in
stalled tires and wheels are designed to provide optimum ride and ha
ndling characteristics when inflated
to the recommended inflation pressures, with vehicle loads not exceeding the full-rated load capacity.
2. 2. Correct tire pressures and driv ing technique have an important influence on tire life. Heavy cornering, excessively
rapid acceleration and unnecessary sharp braking increase tire wear.
3. 3. Replacement tires should follow the recommended:
Size
.
Speed
rating.
Load range. Radial c
onstruction type.
4. 4. The use of any other size or type of wheel / tire may seriously affect:
Safety. Ri
de.
Handlin
g.
Speed
ometer / odometer calibration.
Vehi
cle ground clearance.
Ti
re clearance between
body and chassis.
Wh
eel bearing life.

ng.
5. 5. Wheels must be renewed when:
Impact damaged. Heavil
y corroded.
Porous W
heel stud holes or se
ats become damaged.
They h
ave excessive radial or lateral runout.
Safety Notes
• WAR
NINGS:
DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT TYPES OF TIRES ON THE SAM E VEHICLE, HANDLING MAY BE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED
RESULTING IN LOSS OF CONTROL.
DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT TYPES OF TIRES ON THE SAM E VEHICLE, HANDLING MAY BE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED
RESULTING IN LOSS OF CONTROL.
A TIRE AND WHEEL MUST ALWAYS BE CORRECTLY MATCHED. WIDER OR NARROWER TIRES THAN RECOMMENDED
COULD CAUSE DANGER THROUGH SUDDEN DEFLATION.
WHEN USING THE TEMPORARY SPARE WHEEL, SPEED MUST NOT EXCEED 80 KM/H (50 MPH). DRIVE WITH CAUTION
AND REPLACE WITH THE SPECIFIED WHEEL / TIRE ASSEMBLY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
TRACTION CONTROL (IF AVAILABLE) MUST NOT BE ENGAGED WITH THE TEMPORARY SPARE WHEEL FITTED.

6. Use a rag to wipe up as much oil as possible from the tappet
wells.
7. Valve adjustment involves considerable repetition. A SUMMARY
OF THE PROCEDURE follows:
1. Fit the adjusting tool base plate to one cylinder head.
2. Rotate the crankshaft to position four valves ready for
adjustment.
3. Use the attachment part of the special tool to adjust two valve clearances. Transfer the attachment and

has been measured, along with its relevant clearance.
7. Rotate the crankshaft a small am ount so that the next four
valves are 'off the cam'. Measure and note the clearances.
Re
peat this step
a further six times, until all valve
clearances have been measured and noted.
8. Refit the cam covers and associated components. Refer to
Operations 12.29.43 and 12.29.44.
9. Refit the engine covers.
10. Move the engine compartment cover from the service position
and connect the gas struts.
11. Remove the paint protection sheets and close the cover.
12. Connect the battery and fit the battery cover.
