Check
Fan
Belt
The
fan belt drives the fan, alternator, and water
pump.
See Fig. C-27.
Inspect
the fan belt for serviceability and proper
tension. The tension should be checked with the
Belt
Tension Gauge, W-283. The correct tension on a used belt is 70 to 80 pounds [31,7 a 36,2 kg.]
and
on a new belt 110 to 120 pounds [49,8 a 54,5 kg.]. When preparing for delivery of new car,
the belt strand tension should be 80 to 110 pounds [36,2 a 49,8 kg.]. When installing a new belt, adjust
the strand tension 110 to 120 pounds [49,8 a 54,5 kg.].
Adjust
the fan belt tension by loosening the clamp
bolt on the alternator brace and swinging the alter
nator
away from the engine until proper belt ten
sion is obtained.
Then
tighten the clamp bolt.
Note:
If no
gauge
is available approximate correct
tension is obtained when the thumb pressure mid

ROAD TEST VEHICLE
After
completing the tune-up, road
test
the vehicle for power and overall performance. Make neces
sary
adjustments.
Note:
Engine run on or "dieseling" is a condition
in
which combustion continues to take place after
the normal ignition
spark
from the distributor has
been shut off by turning off the ignition switch. It is generally caused by excessive engine idle speed
in
combination with retarded ignition timing, en gine heat soak or the use of low octane fuel.
Should
engine dieseling (engine running after igni
tion key is turned off) be experienced on V-6 engine equipped vehicles, installation of Idle Stop
Valve

brackets. The
rear
of the engine-transmission
assembly is supported by a rubber insulator
mounting under the
rear
of the transmission on
the frame center cross member.
This
cross member
is bolted to the frame side
rails
so that it can be
dropped when removing the transmission or engine-

assembly. The rubber insulators allow
free side and vertical oscillation to effectively
neutralize
engine
vibration at the source.
The
rubber
insulator mountings should be inspected
for separation and deterioration by jacking the
power plant away from the frame, near the sup
ports. Vibration cannot be effectively absorbed by
separated or worn insulators. They should be re placed if faulty.

D-6. ENGINE DISASSEMBLY
Engine
disassembly is presented in the sequence to be followed when the
engine
is to be completely
overhauled after removal from the vehicle. Some
of the operations of the procedure are also ap
plicable
separately with the
engine
in the vehicle,
provided
that wherever necessary the part of the
engine
to be worked on is first made accessible by
removal
of
engine
accessories or other parts.
When
the disassembly operations are performed
with
the
engine
out of the vehicle, it is assumed,
in
this procedure, that all of the accessories have been removed
prior
to starting the disassembly
and
the oil has been drained.
In
addition to the instructions covering operations
for disassembling the
engine
out of the vehicle,
special
instructions are given to cover different
operations required when disassembly is
done
with the
engine
installed.
During
disassembly operations, the
engine
should
be mounted in a suitable
engine
repair
stand. Where
practicable,
modify or adapt an existing repair
stand
as necessary to accommodate the engine. If
an
engine
repair stand is not used, take care to
perform
disassembly operations in a manner that
will
protect personnel against an accident and the
engine
and its parts against damage.
NOTE:
If the
engine
is being disassembled because
of possible valve failure, check the valve tappet
clearance
before disassembly. Improper valve
clearance
could be the possible cause of valve
failure,
indicating a need for more frequent valve
checks and adjustments. 41

an
adapter
ring
which
correctly positions the guides. See Fig. D-23. Start a new exhaust valve guide, blunt (nontapered)
end
first,
into
the valve guide bore in the top of the cylinder block. When properly positioned, the
top end of the guide is exactly
1
"
[25,4 mm.] below
the level of the top of the block as shown in Fig.
D-24.
Start
a new intake valve guide, tapered end
first, into position from the
bottom
of the cylinder
head.
When properly positioned, the end of the
guide is just flush with the end of the valve guide
bore in the cylinder head as shown in Fig. D-24.
Run
a reamer (Tool
C-3 8)
through the new
guides
after they have been correctly positioned.
D-62. Tappets
and
Cover
The
valve tappets are lubricated through oil troughs cast in the crankcase. The troughs are
filled by oil sprayed from the connecting rod ends
and
passages are drilled through the tappet
guides
to
carry
the oil to the tappets. A
groove
around the center of the tappet shank carries the oil up and down the guide.
Check
the threads and fit of the exhaust valve ad
justing
screw in the exhaust valve tappets. The fit of a screw should be such that a wrench is required to
turn
it into or out of the tappet as
these
are of
the self-locking type. Replace the worn part, either
the screw or the tappet, or both, if there is
loose
ness
between
the parts.
D-63.
Crankshaft Rear Bearing Seal
Oil
leakage through the
rear
main bearing is pre vented by a metal supported neoprene lip type
seal
which can readily be installed without remov
ing the crankshaft.
Should
trouble be experienced with oil leaking
from
the
rear
main bearing there are several points
which
should be checked.
a.
Be sure that the identifying paint daub on the
bearing
cap is the same as that appearing on the
center bearing web.
b.
The bearing to crankshaft clearance must not
exceed .0029"
[0,0736
mm.].
c.
Place sealer on the faces of the
rear
bearing cap
from
the
rear
oil
groove
to the oil seal grooves.
d-
Be sure the rubber oil seals extend about 34" [6 mm.] below the
bottom
face of the cap.
e.
Be sure the oil pan gasket is not leaking.
f.
Check
to be sure the oil leak is not at the cam
shaft
rear
bearing expansion plug or from the
crankcase.
D-64.
Floating Oil
Intake •
Refer to Fig. D-25 and D-26.
The
floating oil intake is attached to the
bottom
of the crankcase with two screws. The float and
screen causes it to ride, raise and lower with the
amount of oil in the pan.
This
prevents water or
dirt,
which
may have accumulated in the
bottom
of the oil pan, from circulating through the
engine
because the oil is drawn horizontally from the top
surface.
Whenever removed, the float, screen, and
tube should be cleaned thoroughly to remove any
accumulation
of
dirt.
Also clean the oil pan.
Fluctuating
oil pressure can usually be traced to
an
air leak
between
the oil float support and the
crankcase.
Be
sure the float support flange is flat.
Clean
both
the flange and the crankcase surfaces thoroughly
before installing a new gasket. Be sure the retaining
screws are tight.
D-65. Oil
Pump
The
oil pump is located externally on the left side
of the engine. In operation oil is drawn from the
crankcase
through the floating oil intake then passes through a drilled passage in the crankcase
to the pump from which it is forced through
drilled
passages to the crankshaft and camshaft
bearings. When it is necessary to remove an oil
pump,
first remove the distributor cover and
note
the position of the distributor rotor so that the pump may be reinstalled without disturbing the
ignition timing. To install the pump without dis
turbing
the timing, the pump gear must be cor
rectly
meshed with the camshaft driving gear to
allow
engagement
of the key on the distributor shaft with the pump shaft slot, without changing the position of the distributor rotor. Distributor
can
be installed only in one position as the slot and
driving
key are machined off-center.
The
oil pump consists of an inner and outer rotor
within
the pump body. An oil relief valve is mounted in the pump body which controls the oil
pressure.
To disassemble the pump, Fig. D-27, first remove the gear which is retained by straight
pin.
It
will
be necessary to file off one end of the
pin
before driving it out with a small drift. By re
moving the cover the outer rotor and the inner
rotor
and shaft may be removed through the cover opening.
Failure
of the pump to operate at
full
efficiency may usually be traced to excessive
end float of the rotors or excessive clearance be tween the rotors. The clearance
between
the outer
rotor
and the pump body should also be checked.
Match
the rotors
together
with one
lobe
of the inner
rotor
pushed as far as possible into the notch of the outer rotor. Measure the clearance
between
the
lobes
of the rotors as shown in
Fig.
D-28.
This
clear ance should be .010"
[0,254
mm.] or less.
If
more, replace both rotors. Measure the clearance
between
the outer rotor and the pump body as
shown in Fig. D-29. Should this clearance exceed .012" [0,305 mm.] the fault is probably in the
pump body and it should be replaced. End float
of the rotors is controlled by the thickness of the cover gasket which is made of special material that
can
be only slightly compressed. Never use other
than
a standard factory gasket.
Check
the cover
to be sure the inner surface is not rough or scored
and
that it is flat within .001" [0,025 mm.]
tested
with
feeler
gauges,
Fig. D-30. Measure thickness of
the rotors which must be within .001" [0,025 mm.]
of each other. Assemble the rotors in the pump body and install the cover without the gasket.
When
the cover screws are tightened to normal
tension, there should be interference
between
the
rotors and the cover making it impossible to
turn
the pump shaft by hand. Remove the cover and re- 57

VALVE
ADJUSTMENT
Proper
valve adjustment is important to prevent
burning
of valves and poor
engine
performance.
This
adjustment consists of obtaining a specified
lash
in the valve mechanism. The exhaust valve
tappets and the intake valve rocker arms should be adjusted to the proper clearance with the
engine
cold (at room temperature). Valve clearance can
be properly adjusted only when the tappet is on the
heel or low portion of the cam.

TIMING
D-108. Valve Adjustment Procedure
The
exhaust valve tappets are adjusted by turning
the adjusting screw in or out of the tappet as neces
sary
to obtain the proper clearance. Where special
wrenches can be obtained, they should be used to facilitate the adjustment. The proper clearance is .016" [0,406 mm.]
between
the end of the adjusting
screw and the
bottom
of the exhaust valve.
Crank
the
engine
over to
close
a valve and check
the clearance with a feeler
gauge.
To adjust, hold
the tappet with one wrench and
turn
the adjusting
screw,
with the other.
Check
and adjust each of
the tappets in proper sequence.
Adjust
each intake valve by adjusting the rocker
arm
screw at the push rod to obtain .018" [0,457 mm.] clearance
between
the rocker arm and the
valve stem with tappet on the heel of the cam.
D-109.
Check
Valve
Timing
To
check the valve timing, carefully set the intake
valve rocker arm adjustment for No. 1 cylinder to .026"
[0,6604
mm.]
between
the rocker arm and the
valve stem. Rotate the crankshaft clockwise until
the piston in No. 1 cylinder is ready for the intake stroke. The intake valve
opens
9° before top center
(BTC).
Note
the distance
between
the
"TC"
and
"5°"
marks on the indicator on the timing gear
cover and estimate the 9° before top center position.
See
Fig.
D-43.
With
the crankshaft in this position, timing is correct if the rocker arm is just tight
against the intake valve stem. Do not overlook resetting the rocker arm adjustment to the correct
running
clearance.
D-110. Positive
Crankcase
Ventilation
Be
sure there are no air leaks at the tube connec
tions
between
the air cleaner and the oil filler tube,
and
that the oil filler tube cap gasket is in
good
condition. Always keep the cap locked securely in
place. When tuning the
engine
or grinding valves, remove the control valve and clean it thoroughly.
If
the valve is blocked with carbon, the ventilating
system
will
not operate and, should the valve
fail
to seat, it
will
be impossible to make the
engine
idle satisfactorily. Refer to Par. C-6 for servicing.
D-111. Oil
Filter
The
engine
is equipped with a throw-away type
oil
filter.
This
oil filter must be serviced periodi
cally
as outlined in the
Lubrication
Section. 69
