Checking Valve Clearance
• Valve clearance must be checked and adjusted when
engine is cold.
1. Remove the high pressure pipes, glow lead, glow plugs and the
cylinder head cover.
2. Align the 1TC mark of flywheel and the convex of flywheel
housing timing windows so that the first piston (front cover side)
comes to the compression top dead center.
3. Before adjusting the valve clearance, adjust the bridge evenly to
the valve stem.
4. Loosen the lock nut (2) and adjust with screw (1).
5. Slightly push the rocker arm with your fingers and screw in the
adjusting screw slowly until you feel the screw touch the top of
valve stem, then tighten the lock nut.
6. Loosen the lock nut (4) of adjusting screw (3) (push rod side)
and insert the feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the
bridge head. Set the adjusting screw to the specified value, then
tighten the lock nut.
• After adjusting, tighten the lock nut (4) securely.
