Apply clean engine oil:
a. A spot into rotor spindle before fitting rotor
arm.
Apply Omnilube 2 (or equivalent) grease.
b. Auto advance mechanism.
c. Pick-up plate centre bearing.
d. Pre tilt spring and its rubbing area (pick-up
and base plate assembly).
e. Vacuum unit connecting peg (pick-up and
base plate assembly).
f. Connecting peg hole in vacuum unit
connecting rod.
Fitting pick-up and base plate assembly
1.Pick-up leads must be prevented from fouling
rotating reluctor. Both leads should be located in
plastic guide as illustrated. Check during
re-assembly.
Fitting reluctor
2.Slide reluctor as far as it will go on rotor shaft,
rotate reluctor until it engages with coupling ring
beneath pick-up base plate. Distributor shaft,
coupling ring and reluctor are 'keyed' and rotate
together. Fit 'O' ring, flat washer and retaining
circlip.Pick-up air gap adjustment
1.Air gap between pick-up limb and reluctor teeth
must be set within specified limits, using a
non-ferrous feeler gauge.
2.If adjustment is necessary, loosen two barrel
nuts to set the air gap.
See ENGINE TUNING
DATA, Information, Engine 3.9 V8i
NOTE: When original pick-up and base
plate assembly has been refitted, air gap
should be checked, and adjusted if
necessary.
When fitting a new assembly air gap will require
adjusting to within specified limits.
Amplifier module
1.Before fitting module, apply MS4 Silicone grease
or equivalent heat-conducting compound to
amplifier module backplate, seating face on
distributor body and both faces of heatsink
casting.

Inspecting components
1.Measure and record diameter of rocker shaft at
one of the pedestal locations.
2.Measure and record diameter of rocker shaft at
each of the rocker arm locations.
3.Compare measurements obtained and
calculate difference between diameters. If wear
at any rocker shaft location exceeds 0.025 mm,
a new rocker shaft must be fitted.
4.Check rocker arm pads for signs of wear,
replace rocker arms as necessary.
5.Check threads and ball ends of each tappet
adjusting screw for wear. Pay particular
attention to ball ends, replace any showing
signs of flattening on the ball or damage to
threads.
6.Check that each nut runs freely on adjusting
screw threads.
7.Check each push rod for signs of wear and for
straightness, replace as necessary.
8.Check valve caps for signs of wear, replace as
necessary.
9.Check rocker arm bushes for scoring and
wear.
10.Assemble each rocker arm to its fitted location
on rocker shaft and check clearance of bush to
shaft does not exceed 0.12 mm.
11.If clearance exceeds figure given, bushes must
be replaced.Rocker arm bushes - replace
1.Support rocker arm on bed of hand press.
2.Using a suitable piloted mandrel, press bush
out of rocker arm.
3.Lubricate replacement bush with engine oil and
press into rocker arm ensuring that lubrication
holes in bush and arm are aligned.
4.Check that lubrication holes in each rocker arm
are clear.
5.Check that lubrication holes in rocker shaft are
clear.
6.Check spacers and washers for wear, replace
as necessary.

6.Remove spring cup, valve spring and spring
seat. Keep components in their fitted order.
7.Remove and discard valve stem oil seal.
8.Remove valve, and retain in fitted order.
9.Repeat above procedures for remaining
valves.Cylinder head - inspection
1.Decarbonise cylinder head.
2.Examine cylinder head for cracks, pay
particular attention to area between inlet and
exhaust valve seats. Cracks indicate engine
has overheated and cylinder head must be
replaced.
3.Check core plugs for signs of corrosion and
leakage, replace as necessary.4.Check cylinder head for warping using a
straight edge and feeler gauges.
Maximum warping = 0.08 mm
CAUTION: Cylinder head must not be
refaced, if warping exceeds figure given,
head must be replaced.
5.Check valve seat inserts for burning, pitting or
damage, replace inserts if pitting cannot be
removed by valve lapping-in or refacing.

Valve springs - inspection
1.Check free length of each spring = 46.28 mm
2.Check that end coils of each spring are square
to body of spring.Valves and guides - inspection
1.Remove carbon from valves.
2.Examine head of each valve for cracks and
burning and valve seat for pitting or burning,
replace valves as necessary.
3.Check valve seating faces for pitting, if light
pitting cannot be removed during valve
grinding operations, valves may be refaced.
CAUTION: If refacing results in valve head
stand down being exceeded, valves must
be replaced.
4.Check valve seating face angles.
Inlet = 60°00' to 60°30' - included angle =120
°
Exhaust = 45°00' to 45°30' - included angle =
90°
5.Reface or replace valves as necessary.
