VALVE
ADJUSTMENT

Proper
valve adjustment is important to prevent
burning
of valves and poor
engine
performance.

This
adjustment consists of obtaining a specified

lash
in the valve mechanism. The exhaust valve
tappets and the intake valve rocker arms should be adjusted to the proper clearance with the
engine

cold (at room temperature). Valve clearance can
be properly adjusted only when the tappet is on the
heel or low portion of the cam.

TIMING
D-108. Valve Adjustment Procedure

The
exhaust valve tappets are adjusted by turning
the adjusting screw in or out of the tappet as neces­
sary
to obtain the proper clearance. Where special
wrenches can be obtained, they should be used to facilitate the adjustment. The proper clearance is .016" [0,406 mm.]
between
the end of the adjusting
screw and the
bottom
of the exhaust valve.

Crank
the
engine
over to
close
a valve and check
the clearance with a feeler
gauge.
To adjust, hold
the tappet with one wrench and
turn
the adjusting

screw,
with the other.
Check
and adjust each of
the tappets in proper sequence.

Adjust
each intake valve by adjusting the rocker
arm
screw at the push rod to obtain .018" [0,457 mm.] clearance
between
the rocker arm and the
valve stem with tappet on the heel of the cam.
D-109.
Check
Valve
Timing

To
check the valve timing, carefully set the intake
valve rocker arm adjustment for No. 1 cylinder to .026"
[0,6604
mm.]
between
the rocker arm and the
valve stem. Rotate the crankshaft clockwise until
the piston in No. 1 cylinder is ready for the intake stroke. The intake valve
opens
9° before top center
(BTC).
Note
the distance
between
the
"TC"
and
"5°"
marks on the indicator on the timing gear
cover and estimate the 9° before top center position.
See
Fig.
D-43.
With
the crankshaft in this position, timing is correct if the rocker arm is just tight
against the intake valve stem. Do not overlook resetting the rocker arm adjustment to the correct

running
clearance.
D-110. Positive
Crankcase
Ventilation

Be
sure there are no air leaks at the tube connec­
tions
between
the air cleaner and the oil filler tube,

and
that the oil filler tube cap gasket is in
good

condition. Always keep the cap locked securely in
place. When tuning the
engine
or grinding valves, remove the control valve and clean it thoroughly.
If
the valve is blocked with carbon, the ventilating
system
will
not operate and, should the valve

fail
to seat, it
will
be impossible to make the
engine

idle satisfactorily. Refer to Par. C-6 for servicing.
D-111. Oil
Filter

The
engine
is equipped with a throw-away type

oil
filter.
This
oil filter must be serviced periodi­
cally

The
engine
is pressure lubricated. The oil pump
is located on the timing chain cover and discharges
oil
through an oil filter
into
main oil galleries in
the crankcase to deliver oil to all crankshaft and
camshaft bearings. Piston pins are lubricated by- splash. The timing chain is lubricated by splash
of an oil stream from which oil is directed to the
distributor drive gear from the fuel pump eccentric
on the camshaft. Rocker arms are lubricated from
the oil galleries in the cylinder block through pas- 78

in the block and cylinder head.

The
water cooled system is pressurized to provide efficient
engine
cooling. It consists of a centrifugal-
type water pump, mounted on the timing chain cover, and is driven by the
engine
fan pulley. The
pump provides coolant flow equally to both
cylin­
der banks under control of a thermostat. Coolant
flow is around the cylinders and through the
cylinder
head to dispel the heat of combustion in
the engine.

Dl-3.
Engine Mounts

The
engine-transmission unit is mounted to the chassis at three points by rubber pads. The two
front mounts are bolted to the
engine
cylinder
block and the frame members. These mounts sup­ port most of the
engine
weight, and absorb
vibra­

tion which would otherwise be caused by changes
in
engine
output torque. The single
rear
mount is
placed
between
the transmission and the trans­ mission support. It supports part of the engine'

and
transmission weight, and locates the
rear
of
the
engine
with respect to the centerline of the
vehicle.

ENGINE DISASSEMBLY

Engine
disassembly is presented in the sequence to be followed when the
engine
is to be completely
overhauled after removal from the vehicle. Some of the operations of the procedure are also appli­cable separately with the
engine
in the vehicle,
provided that wherever necessary the part of the
engine
to be worked on is first made accessible by removal of
engine
accessories or other parts.

When
the disassembly operations are performed
with
the
engine
out of the vehicle, it is assumed,
in
this procedure, that all of the accessories have
been removed
prior
to starting the disassembly and
the oil has been drained.

Dl

DAUNTLESS
V-6
ENGINE
In
addition to the instructions covering operations
for disassembling the
engine
out of the vehicle, special instructions are given to cover different
operations required when disassembly is
done
with
the
engine
installed.

During
disassembly operations, the
engine
should be mounted in a suitable
engine
repair stand.

Where
practicable, modify or adapt an existing re­

pair
stand as necessary to accommodate the
engine.
If
an
engine
repair stand is not used, take care to

perform
disassembly operations in a manner that
will
protect personnel against an accident and the
engine
and its parts against damage.

Dl-6.
Mounting Engine
On
Engine Stand

Refer
to Fig. Dl-4.
a.
With
the
engine
supported by a hoist, remove
the clutch housing and clutch. Match
mark
the flywheel and the clutch cover before disassembly to assure proper reassembly.
b. Position the
engine
on the
engine
stand.
c. Release
some
tension of the hoist cables and secure
engine
to stand.

d.
Make sure the position lock on the
engine
stand
is tight to prevent the
engine
from accidentally
inverting.

e.
Release the hoist cables.

E-1. GENERAL
The
fuel system of the Jeep Universal vehicle,
whether equipped with a Hurricane F4 or Daunt­

less
V-6 Engine,
consists
of the fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel pump, carburetor and
air
cleaner.
Fig. E-1, E-2.
Vehicles equipped with a
Fuel
Evaporative
Emis­

sion Control System
also
include a
non-vent

pressure and vacuum
sensitive
gas cap, a liquid
expansion and vapor separator tank, a carbon filled vapor
storage
canister, and a vapor purge line. Service information pertaining to the
Fuel
Evap­

orative Emission Control System is outlined in

Par.
E-2 through
E-9.
Refer to Figs. E-3 and E-4.
The
most
important
attention
necessary to the fuel
system is to
keep
it clean and free from water. It should be periodically inspected for leaks.

CAUTION—Whenever
a vehicle is to be stored for

an
extended
period, the fuel system should be com­

pletely
drained, the
engine
started and allowed to
run
until the carburetor is emptied.
This
will
avoid
oxidization of the fuel, resulting in the formation of

gum in the units of the fuel system. Gum formation
is similar to hard varnish and may cause the fuel
pump valves or the carburetor
float
valve to be­
come
stuck or the filter screen blocked. Acetone or commercial fuel system cleaners
will
dissolve

gum formation. In
extreme
cases
it
will
be necessary
to dissassemble and clean the fuel system. In
most

cases, however, a
good
commercial fuel system sol­
vent
used in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions or one pint [0,6 ltr.] of
acetone
placed
in
the fuel tank with
about
one gallon [4,5 ltr.]
of
gasoline
will
dissolve
any
deposits
as it
passes

through the system with the
gasoline.
