@ Stop the engine.
@ Set the engine so that cylinder
No. 1 IS positioned at
the top dead centre of the compression.
@ Press the rocker arm at the area indicated by the+
arrow mark to check whether the rocker arm is lowered
or not.
@ Slowly turn the crankshaft 360 degrees clockwise.
@ ln the same procedure as Step 0, check the rocker
arm at the area indicated by the
4 arrow mark.
@ If the rocker arm lowers easily when the part directly above the rocker arm lash adjuster is pressed, the lash
adjuster is defective and must be replaced. When re- placing the lash adjuster, bleed the air from all adjus-
ters and then assemble them. Then inspect with proce- dures
@I to 0, and confirm that there are no abnormal-
ities.
NOTE
lThe lash adjuster can be accurately checked for de-
fects with the leak down test.
l Refer to the engine service manual for the leak
down test and lash adjuster air bleeding procedure.
If the rocker arm is extremely hard when pressed
down, the lash adjuster is normal, so look for a different
cause of abnormal sound.
