4. Checking and adjusting
4.1 Checking compression pressure
of cylinder
NOTE
• Check the
compression pressure with the
specified valve clearance.
• Always use a fully charged battery for you do
this test.
• Variances in cylinder compression values must
be less than 10%.
Tools required
• Compression tester
• Injector adapter
1. Warm-up the engine.
2. Remove the air cleaner and muf
fler.
3. Remove the glow lead and glow plugs.
4. Disconnect the injector connectors.

4.2 Adjusting valve clearance
IMPORTANT
• You
must check and adjust the valve clearance
when the engine is cold.
Tools required
• Feeler gauge
1. Remove the air cleaner and muffler.
2. Remove the cylinder head cover
