ST2 498457100 ENGINE STAND ADAPTER LH
ST3 499817000 ENGINE STAND
2) All parts should be thoroughly cleaned, paying special
attention to the engine oil passages, pistons and bearings.
3) Rotating parts and sliding parts such as piston, bearing
and gear should be coated with oil prior to assembly.
4) Be careful not to let oil, grease or coolant contact the
timing belt, clutch disc and flywheel.
5) All removed parts, if to be reused, should be reinstalled
in the original positions and directions.
6) Gaskets and lock washers must be replaced with new
ones. Liquid gasket should be used where specified to
prevent leakage.
7) Bolts, nuts and washers should be replaced with new
ones as required.
8) Even if necessary inspections have been made in
advance, proceed with assembly work while making
rechecks.

3) Bleed air from hydraulic lash adjuster as described
below:
(1) While dipping hydraulic lash adjuster in engine oil,
as shown in Figure, push check ball in usinga2mm
(0.08 in) diameter round bar.
(2) With check ball pushed in, manually move plunger
up and down at one second intervals until air bubbles
disappear.
(3) After air bubbles disappear, remove round bar and
quickly push plunger in to ensure it is locked. If plunger
does not lock properly, replace hydraulic lash adjuster.
CAUTION:
Leave hydraulic lash adjuster (after air is bled) in
engine oil until it is ready for installation.

4) Using ST;
(1) Insert lash adjuster into ST, and fill ST with engine
oil. Usinga2mm(0.08 in) diameter rod, push check
ball in.

(2) With check ball pushed in, push plunger at an inter-
val of one second.
(3) Move plunger up and down until air bubbles are no
longer emitted from lash adjuster.
NOTE:
Hold hydraulic lash adjusters vertically during air bleeding.
5) Remove the rod. Push plunger to ensure that air is
completely bled out.
CAUTION:
If plunger does not properly lock (when pushed),
replace lash adjuster with a new one.

6) Fill rocker arm’s oil reservoir with engine oil and install
lash adjuster.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate lash adjuster during installation.
Be careful not to scratch the oil seal.
B2M0414
CAUTION:
When removing valve rocker assembly, keep the
assembly soaked in engine oil, or position it with air
bleeding orifice on rocker arm facing upward as
shown. This prevents oil leakage from and air entering
into the hydraulic lash adjuster. Failure to do so may
cause air to enter the hydraulic lash adjuster, causing
loss in performance.
