Lifter / Lash Adjuster, Valve







- Press lifter down with wooden or plastic wedge, far enough to insert a 0.2 mm feeler gauge between lobe and lifter, If excess play is present, replace lifter.

NOTE: After installing new lifters the engine must not be started for approx. 30 minutes. Hydraulic compensation elements must settle (otherwise valves will strike pistons).
