checking

(M42

al¡
6-cylinder
engines)
The
M42
engine
and
al¡
6-cylinder
engines
use
self-adjust-
ing
hydraulic
cam
followers
to
keep
the
valveclearances
with-
ina
limited
working
range
.
The
cam
followers
are
sealed
units
and
require
no
maintenance
.
See
Fig
.
14
.
.
Under
some
circumstances,
suchasa
cold
start,
the
cam
followers
may
become
noisy
.
Hydraulic
cam
follower
noise
is
usually
a
high-pitched
tapping
or
chattering
noise
.
In
most
in-
stances,
this
is
considered
normalas
long
as
the
noise
goes
away
in
a
fewminutes
(maximum
20
minutes)
.
lf
the
noise
does
not
go
away,
either
the
follower
is
faulty
or
the
oil
pres-
sure
to
the
follower
is
low
.
Hydraulic
cam

ment
requires
that
the

NOTE-
Before
