VALVE SYSTEM Tappet Adjustment The engine is equipped with adjustable valve tappets. A properly functioning valve system is essential for good The valve tappet clearance should be checked and engine performance.All engines utilize an L-head type adjustedasspecified in the PeriodicMaintenance valve design as shown in Figure 1. Access to the valve Schedule (located in the Operator’s Manual).
Warpage occurs chiefly in the upper stem due to its exposure to intense heat. Out-of-round wear follows when the seatis pounded bya valve whose headis not If a valve faceis burned in line with the stem and guide. or warped, orif the stem is worn, install a new valve. Drivlng out old guides can damage thee guide or tappet bores. Be careful not tostrike guide bores with driveror allow guide to strike tappet bores during removal.
Valve Spring: Check valve springs for cracks, worn Valve Seat Removal: Remove carbon and combustion ends, distortion, and tension.If spring ends are worn, depositsfromvalve seat Selectproperpullersize check valve spring retainer for wear. Check for spring determined by inside diameter of valve seat On some distortion by placing spring on a flat surface next to a pullers use a new seat as a guide to adjust puller depth square. Measure height of spring and rotateit against (Figure 4).
TAPPETS Very little wear takes place on tappet diameters orin tappet bores. If the clearance between tappet and bore in cylinder block exceeds specifications, replace the tappet. Inspect the tappet faces which contact camshaft lobes for roughness, scuffing, or concave wear. Replace any worn tappets. If tappets are worn, inspect camshaft for wear. VALVE FACE AND SEAT GRINDING Before installingnew valves or previously used valves, If used inspect valve seats for proper valve seating.

CRANKSHAFT Clean crankshaft thoroughly and inspect journals for scoring, chipping, cracking, or signsof overheating. If crankshaft has overheated, is scored, or excessively worn, reconditioning or replacement will be required. Examine bearing journals for cracks if overheating has occurred. Measure crankshaft main bearing and connecting rod to check for journals at several places on their diameter roundness and taper.
In the rear bearing plate, install the bearing flush to 1/ 6 4 inch (0.40 mm) below theend of the bore. Be sure to align the oil holes in the bearing with the oil holes in the bearing bore (Figure 21). The oil passage must be at least halfopen. Lubricate bearing after installation. If head of lockpin isdamaged, use side cutters or Easy Out tool to remove and install new pin. Oil grooves in thrust washers must face the crankshaft, and washers each washer must be flat (not bent).
CHECKING CONNECTINGROD BEARING CLEARANCE WITH PLASTIGAUGE 1. Make certain that all parts are marked or identified so they are installed in their original positions. Using a clean dry cloth, thoroughly clean all oil from rod. If connecting crankshaft journal and connecting rod bearing inserts are being replaced (P224 only), install them in rod and cap. 2. Place a piece of correct size Plastigauge in the bearing cap the full width of the journal surface and about 1/4 inch (6.35mm) off center (Figure24). 3.
