ENGINE
The car has a
four
cylinder, in-line, liquid cooled engine
with overhead camshaft.
The

45
° to the right and the
cylinder
head
is
of
a cross-flow type; i.e., with inlet ports
on one side and exhaust ports on the
other
. The
crank-
shaft has five main bearings. The engine has a separate
idler
shaft that drives the oil pump, water
pump
and
distributor
through
gears.
The engine has
fully
enclosed crankcase ventilation.
The clutch

Engine oil
Check the oil level at regular intervals, after the engine
has been stopped
for
at least one minute. Do
not
permit the
level to fall below the lower mark on the
dipstick,
but
do
not fill beyond the upper mark; this will cause exces-
sive
oil consumption. The distance between the upper
and
lower marks corresponds to a volume
of
approx. 1
US
quart
(approx. 1 liter).
Top
up
with
oil
of
recommended
grade
as
necessary. (See section
"K").
NOTE! Do
not
confuse the engine and transmission
drain
plugs. See Page 30
for
location
of
plug.
