Usage:

Remove Valve Lifters

start by:

a) remove piston cooling tubes

b) remove fuel injection pump housing, shutoff control, governor and governor drive as a unit

c) remove valve covers

1. Loosen the adjustment screws for valves to get maximum clearance.

NOTE: Flywheel housing removed for illustration only.

2. Remove the push rods (2).

3. Remove the oil tubes (1) away from the brackets.

4. Put a wire or large rubber band around the lifters (3) to hold them in place in bracket.

5. Remove the bolts and locks that hold bracket assembly to cylinder block. Remove the brackets and lifters (3).

NOTE: If damage has been caused to lifters, inspect the lobes of camshaft. If necessary make a replacement of the camshaft. See REMOVE CAMSHAFT. Clearance between lifter and bracket must be no more than .010 in. (0.25 mm)

Install Valve Lifters

1. Put clean engine oil on lifters. Install lifters in bracket.

2. Put wire or large rubber bands (1) around lifters to hold them in bracket.

3. Put the bracket and lifters in position on dowels. Install the locks and bolts that hold brackets to cylinder block. Remove the wire or rubber band from lifters.

4. Put the oil tubes (2) on the brackets and install locks and bolts.

5. Put the seals between the bracket assemblies.

6. Use installer (A) to put the seals in their respective position.

7. Install the push rods.

8. Make an adjustment of valves to get .015 in. (0.38 mm) clearance (cold) on intake valves; .035 in. (0.89 mm) clearance (cold) on exhaust valves. See VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT in TESTING AND ADJUSTING.
