VALVE
CLEARANCES

Adjusting

Incorrect
valve
clearance
will
affect
the

performance
of

the

engine
and

may
damage
the
valves
and
valve
seats
Insuf

ficient
valve
clearance
will
result
in
loss
of

power
and

may

prevent
the
valve
from

seating
properly
Excessive
clearance

causes
the
valve
to
seat
and
reduces
the
amount
of

valve
lift

This
will
result
in

noisy
operation
with

damage
to
the
valves

and
seats

Adjustment
is
made
with
the

engine
switched
off

and
should
be
carried
out

initially
with
the

engine
cold
to

allow
the

engine
to
run
Final

adjustments
are
made
after

wanning

up
the

engine
to

its
Donnal

operating
temperature
The

engine
can
be
rotated

by
removing
the

sparking
plugs
to
release

the

cylinder
compressions
then

selecting

top
gear
and

pushing

the
vehicle
backwards
and
forwards

The
cold
valve
clearances
should
be
set
to
0
20
mm

0
0079
in
for
the
inlet
valves
and
0
25
mm
0
0098
in
for

the
exhaust
valves
Check
the
clearance
between
the
valve
and

rocker

using
a
feeler

gauge
as
shown
in

Fig
A
40
Slacken
the

locknut
and
turn
the
adjusting
screw
until
the

specified
clearance

is
obtained
then

tighten
the
locknut
and
recheck
the
clearance

The
feeler

gauge
should

just
be
free
to
move
between
the
rocker

and
valve
When
the
cold
valve
clearances
have
been
set
run
the

engine
until
it
reaches
its
normal

operating
temperature
then

switch
off
and

adjust
the
valve
clearances
with
the

engine
warm

to

0
25
mm
0
0098
in
for
the
inlet
valves
and
0
30
mm

0
0118
in
for
the
exhaust
valves

OIL
PUMP
Removal
and

Dismantling

The
rotor

type
oil

pump
is
mounted
at
the
bottom
of
the

front

timing
cover
and
driven

by
the
distributor
drive
shaft

assembly

Overhaul
of
the

pump
will

require
careful
measurement

of

the
various
clearances
to
determine
the
amount

of
wear

which

has
taken

place
If

any
part
is
found
to
be
worn
it

may
be
neces

sary
to

replace
the
entire
oil

pump
assembly
To
remove
the
oil

pump
from
the

engine
proceed
as
follows

1
Remove
the
distributor

assembly
as
described
in
the

section
IGNITION
SYSTEM
Remove
the
oil

sump
drain

plug
and
drain
off
the

engine
oil
See
under
the
heading

CHANGING
THE
ENGINE
OIL

2
Remove
the
front
stabiliser
and
the
splash
shield
board

3
Withdraw
the

securing
bolts
and
detach
the
oil

pump

body
together
with
the
drive

gear
spindle

Take
out
the
bolts
securing
the

pump
cover
to
the

pump
body

and
withdraw
the
rotors
and
drive
shaft
See
Fig
A
42

The
pin
securing
the
driven
shaft
and
inner
rotor
must
not

00
taken
out
as
the
shaft
is

press
fitted
to
the
rotor
and
the

pin

is
caulked

Unscrew
the
threaded

plug
and
withdraw
the
regulator

valve
and

spring
Oean
each

part
thoroughly
and
examine
for

signs
of

damage
or
wear
Use
a
feeler

gauge
to
check

the
side

clearances
between
the
outer

and
inner
rotors
the
clearances

at
the

tips
of
the
rotors
and
the
clearance
between
the
outer

rotor
and
the

pump
body
See
Technical
Data
for
the
relevant

clearances
The
clearances
can

be
checked

using
a

straight
edge

as

shown

OIL
PUMP

Assembly
and
Installation

Assembly
is
a
reversal
of
the

dismantling
procedure
Before

installing
the
oil

pump
in
the

engine
it
will
be

necessary
to

rotate

the

engine
until
the
No
1

piston
is
at

T
D
C
on

its

compression
stroke

Fill
the

pump
housing
with

engine
oil
and

align
the

punch

mark
on
the

spindle
with
the
hole
in
the
oil

pump
as
shown

in

Fig
A
44

Install
the

pump
with
a
new

gasket
and

tighten

OIL
FILTER

The

oil
filter
can
be
removed
with
the

special
tool
ST

or
a
suitable
filter
remover
Interior

cleaning
is
not

necessary
but
the
ftIter

body
and
element
must

be

repiaced
every
10
000
km
6000
miles
Be
care
ul
not
to

overtighten
the
filter
when

replacing
or

oil
leakage

may
occur

CHANGING
THE
ENGINE
OIL

After
the
fIrst
oil

change
which
should
take

place
at
1000

km
600
miles
the
oil
should
be

changed
regularly
at
5000
km

3000
miles
intervals

Draining
is
more

easily
accomplished
after
a

lengthy
run

when
the
oil

being
thoroughly
warm
will
flow

quite
freely

Stand
the
vehicle
on
level

ground
and

place
a
suitable

container
under
the
drain

plug
Remove
the
drain

plug
carefully

as
the
hot
oil

may
spurt
out
with
considerable
force
When

refIlling
the

engine
make
sure

that
the
oil
is
to
the
H
mark
on

the

dipstick
