to ensure correct amount of oil has filled crankcase. Check oil level
while pre-oiling.
If pressure oiler is not available, disconnect ignition
system. Remove oil pressure sending unit and replace with oil pressure
test gauge. Using starter motor, rotate engine starter until gauge
shows normal oil pressure for several seconds. DO NOT crank engine
for more than 30 seconds to avoid starter motor damage.
Ensure oil pressure has reached the most distant point from
the oil pump. Reinstall oil pressure sending unit. Reconnect ignition
system.
INITIAL START-UP
Start the engine and operate engine at low speed while
checking for coolant, fuel and oil leaks. Stop engine. Recheck coolant
and oil level. Adjust if necessary.
CAMSHAFT
Break-in procedure is required when a new or reground
camshaft has been installed. Operate and maintain engine speed between
1500-2500 RPM for approximately 30 minutes. Procedure may vary due to
manufacturers recommendations.
PISTON RINGS
Piston rings require a break-in procedure to ensure seating
of rings to cylinder walls. Serious damage may occur to rings if
correct procedures are not followed.
Extremely high piston ring temperatures are produced obtained
during break-in process. If rings are exposed to excessively high RPM
or high cylinder pressures, ring damage can occur. Follow piston ring
manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure.
FINAL ADJUSTMENTS
Check or adjust ignition timing and dwell (if applicable).
Adjust valves (if necessary). Adjust carburetion or injection idle
speed and mixture. Retighten cylinder heads (if required). If
cylinder head or block is aluminum, retighten bolts when engine is
cold. Follow the engine manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure
and maintenance schedule for new engines.
NOTE: Some manufacturer's require that head bolts be retightened
after specified amount of operation. This must be done to
prevent head gasket failure.

TIMING BELT INTERFERENCE VERIFICATION INFORMATION
TIMING BELT INTERFERENCE CAUTION
NOTE: CAMSHAFT DRIVE BELTS OR TIMING BELTS - The condition of
camshaft drive belts should always be checked on vehicles
which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A
camshaft drive belt failure may cause extensive damage to
internal engine components on most engines, although some
designs do not allow piston-to-valve contact. These designs
are often called "Free Wheeling". Many manufacturers changed
their maintenance and warranty schedules in the mid-1980's to
reflect timing belt inspection and/or replacement at
50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules shown in
this section reflect these changes. Belts or components
should be inspected and replaced if any of the following
conditions exist:
* Crack Or Tears In Belt Surface
* Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
* Oil Contamination
* Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
* Incorrect Tension Adjustment
