Hydraulic Lash Adjuster (HLA)
Note
Tappet noise may occur if the engine is not
operated for an extended period of time. The
noise should stop after the engine has
reached normal operating temperature.
1. Check for tappet noise. If noise exists, check the
following points.
(1) Engine oil condition and level
(2) Engine oil pressure (Refer to Section 2A)
2. If the noise does not stop, check for movement of
each HLA by pushing it during disassembly.
3. If the HLA moves, replace the HLA. (Refer to page
1B—60.)
Ignition Timing
1. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
2. Turn all electric loads OFF.
3. Connect a timing light tester.
4. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the vacuum
control, and plug the hose.
5. Check that the ignition timing mark (yellow) on the
crankshaft pulley and the timing mark on the tim-
ing belt cover are aligned.
Ignition timing: 12° ± 1° BTDC
(at idle speed)
