1. Check the engine oil, and if required, refuel or replace
it.
NOTE
l If the amount of the engine oil is insufficient, air will
be sucked in from the oil strainer and mix the oil
passage.
l
If the amount of the engine oil is more than the speci-
fied amount, it will be stirred by the crankshaft to
make a lot of air in the
l If the oil is deteriorated, it will not easily
from air and the amount of air’ mixed in the oil will ,
increase.
If the air which has mixed in the oil due to the above
causes enters the high pressure chamber in the lash
adjusters, the air in the high pressure chamber will be
pressurized during opening of the valve, which causes
the lash adjusters to shrink excessively, and an abnormal
noise will be generated when the valve is closed. This
is the same phenomenon as the one when the valve
clearance has been excessively adjusted by mistake.
In this case, if the air which has entered the lash adjusters
is bled, things will be normalized.
