1 :6 Cylinder head removal, servicing and replace-
ment
Description:
The aluminium cylinder head is finned to increase the
cooling surface. Through bolts secure the head and the
two cylinders to the crankcase. The valves are controlled
by a camshaft through tappets, pushrods and rockers. The
connection between the head and the crankcase is via five
sleeves mounted directly between the head and crankcase,
and these accommodate the pushrods, lubricating oil and
passage for the crankcase gases. The cylinder head has
been
modified for the 110 F and later 120 engines as
they now incorporate a heater safety device as described
in Section 4:4.
