ROCKER ARMS AND CAMSHAFT






Removal
Follow removal steps outlined in illustration.

Removal Service Point





[A] Rocker Arms And Rocker Arm Shafts Removal.
Before removing rocker arms and shafts assembly, install the special tool as illustrated to prevent adjuster from dropping.

Installation
Installation in reverse order as removal.

Installation Service Points





]A[ Lash Adjuster Installation.
1. Immerse the lash adjuster in clean diesel fuel.
2. Using a special tool, move the plunger up and down 4 or 5 times while pushing down lightly on the check ball in order to bleed out the air.





3. Insert the lash adjuster to rocker arm, being careful not to spill the diesel fuel. Then use the special tool to prevent adjuster from falling while installing it.





]B[ Rocker Shaft Spring/Rocker Arms And Rocker Arm Shaft Installation.
1. Temporarily tighten the rocker shaft with the bolt so that all rocker arms on the inlet valve side do not push the valves.
2. Fit the rocker shaft spring from the above and position it so that it is right angles to the plug guide.

NOTE: Install the rocker shaft spring before installing the exhaust side rocker arms and rocker arm shaft.





3. Remove the special tool for securing the lash adjuster.
4. Make sure that the notch in the rocker arm shaft is in the direction as illustrated.





]C[ Camshaft Oil Seal Installation.

Inspection





Camshaft
1. Measure the cam height.

Standard Value:
Intake 37.39 mm (1.4720 inch)
Exhaust 37.47 mm (1.4752 inch)


Limit:
Intake 36.89 mm (1.4524 inch)
Exhaust 36.97 mm (1.4555 inch)


NOTE: The camshaft identification mark is stamped on the opposite end of the camshaft sprocket side.





Rocker Arm
1. Check the roller surface. If any dents, damage or seizure is evident, replace the rocker arm.
2. Check rotation of the roller. If it does not rotate smoothly or if looseness is evident, replace the rocker arm.
3. Check the inside diameter. If damage or seizure is evident, replace the rocker arm.

Lash Adjuster Leak-down Test

CAUTION:
1. The lash adjuster is a precision part. Keep it free from dust and other foreign matter.
2. Do not disassemble lash adjuster.
3. When cleaning lash adjuster, use clean diesel fuel only.





1. Immerse the lash adjuster in clean diesel fuel.
2. While lightly pushing down inner steel ball using the specie. tool, move the plunger up and down four or five times to bleed air.
Use of the special tool helps facilitate the air bleeding of the rocker arm mounted type lash adjuster.
3. Remove the special tool and press the plunger. If the plunger is hard to push in, the lash adjuster is normal. If the plunger can be readily pushed in all the way, bleed the lash adjuster again and test again. If the plunger is still loose, replace the lash adjuster.

CAUTION: Upon completion of air bleeding, hold lash adjuster upright to prevent inside diesel fuel from spilling.





4. After air bleeding, set lash adjuster on the special tool (Leak down tester).
5. After plunger has gone down somewhat (0.2 - 0.5 mm) , measure time taken for it to go down 1 mm. Replaced if measured time is out of specification.

Standard Value: 4 - 20 seconds /1 mm (0.04 inch)
[Diesel fuel at 15 - 20°C (59 - 68°F)]


CYLINDER HEAD AND VALVES






Removal
Follow removal steps outlined in illustration.

Removal Service Points
Precaution For Removed Parts
Keep removed parts in order according to the cylinder number and intake/exhaust.





[A] Cylinder Head Bolts Removal.
Using the special tool, loosen the cylinder head bolts. Loosen evenly, little by little.





[B] Retainer Lock Removal.
Store removed valves, springs and other parts, tagged to indicate their cylinder No. and location for reassembly.





[C] Valve Stem Seal Removal.
Do not reuse valve stem seal.

Installation
Installation in reverse order as removal.

Installation Service Points





]A[ Valve Stem Seal Installation.
1. Install the valve spring seat.
2. The special tool must be used to install the valve stem seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaking past the valve guide.

CAUTION: Do not reuse the valve stem seal.





]B[ Valve Springs Installation.
Direct the valve spring end with identification color end toward the spring retainer.





]C[ Retainer Lock Installation.
The valve spring, if excessively compressed, causes the bottom end of retainer to be in contact with, and damage, the stem seal.





]D[ Cylinder Head Gasket Identification.
Identification mark: 64





]E[ Cylinder Head Bolt Installation.
1. When installing the cylinder head bolts, check that the shank length of each bolt meets the limit. If the limit is exceeded, replace the bolt.

Limit: Max. 99.4 mm (3.91 inch)

2. Apply engine oil to the threaded portions of bolts and to the washers.





3. According to the tightening sequence, tighten the bolts to the specified torque 78 Nm (58 ft. lbs.) using the special tool (MB991654).
4. Loosen bolts completely.
5. Retighten the loosened bolts to 20 Nm (14.5 ft. lbs.) in the specified tightening sequence.
6. Make a paint mark across each bolt head and cylinder head.
7. Give a 90° turn to the bolts in the specified tightening sequence.
8. Give another 90° turn to the bolts and make sure that the paint mark on the head of each bolt and that on the cylinder head are on the same straight line.

CAUTION:
1. If the bolt is turned less than 90°, proper fastening performance may not be expected. When tightening the bolt, therefore, be careful to give a sufficient turn to it.

2. If the bolt is overtightened, loosen the bolt completely and then retighten it by repeating the tightening procedure from step (1).
