Lash Adjusters: Service and Repair
CAUTION:
-
In the cylinder which are being removed, the valves will touch the pistons when the valves are pushed down, so the crankshaft should be turn to
lower the piston positions.
-
In addition, places where the rocker arms are lifted by the cams cannot be removed. In these cases, the crankshaft should be turned so that the
rocker arms are not lifted.
1. Use the valve lifter set tool No. MD998782, or equivalent, to push down the valve, and remove the roller rocker arm.
2. Remove the lash adjuster from the cylinder head.
3. Install a new lash adjuster from which the air has been bled to the cylinder head.
4. Use the valve lifter tool to push down the valve, and install the roller rocker arm.
NOTE: When installing the roller rocker arm, first set the pivot side of the rocker arm onto the top of the lash adjuster, and then after pushing down the
valve, set the slipper side of the rocker arm on top of the end of the valve stem.
