NOTE
lIf the amount of the engine oil is insufficient, ai r will
be sucked in from the oil strainer and mix

passage.
lIf the amount of the engine oil is more than the sp eci-
fied amount, it will be stirred by the crankshaft to

increase.
If the air which has mixed in the oil due to the ab ove
causes enters the high pressure chamber in the lash
adjusters, the air in the high pressure chamber wil l be
pressurized during opening of the valve, which caus es
the lash adjusters to shrink excessively, and an abnormal
noise will be generated when the valve is closed. T his
is the same phenomenon as the one when the valve
clearance has been excessively adjusted by mistake.
In this case, if the air which has entered the lash adjusters
is bled, things will be normalized.
