11. Check hydraulic lashadjusters.
a. Push rocker armathydraulic lashadjuster location, andsee
if rocker armmoves. Ifitmoves atleast 1mm (0.04 in),it
indicates thatthere isair inthe high pressure chamber.
Noise willbeemitted fromhydraulic lashadjuster ifengine
is started without bleeding air.
b. Remove hydraulic lashadjuster anddipinacontainer filled
with engine oil.While pushing plungerasshown infigure,
lightly pushcheck ballusing athin rod. Airiscompletely
bled when plunger nolonger moves.

Air cannot bebled from thistype oflash adjuster byrunning the

• Situate vehicle onaflat and solid surface.
• Place chocks atfront andback ofrear wheels.
• Donot remove engineuntilexhaust systemhascompletely
cooled off.
Otherwise, youmay burn yourself and/orfiremay break out
in fuel line.
• For safety during subsequent steps,thetension ofwires
should beslackened againsttheengine.
• Before disconnecting fuelhose, release fuelpressure from
fuel line.
Refer to"Releasing FuelPressure" inEC section.
• Besure tohoist engine andtransaxle inasafe manner.
• For engines notequipped withengine slingers, attach
proper slingers andbolts described inPARTS CATALOG.
CAUTION:
• When liftingengine, becareful nottostrike adjacent parts,
especially thefollowing: Accelerator wirecasing, brake
lines, andbrake master cylinder.
• Inhoisting theengine, alwaysuseengine slingers inasafe
manner.
