Note: Replace the O-ring seal when the bolt toward the rear of the engine is installed in the rocker shaft support.
Apply 6V-4876 Lubricant on the threads of six bolts (4) except for the bolt that passes through the rear rocker shaft support (bolt (6) in Illustration 3). Install six bolts (4) in the rocker shaft assembly.
Refer to Illustration 3. Tighten six bolts (4) for the rocker shaft, as follows:
Tighten all the bolts in the numerical sequence to a torque of 155 N m (115 lb ft).
Tighten all the bolts in the numerical sequence to a torque of 250 17 N m (185 13 lb ft).
Tighten all the bolts again in the numerical sequence to a final torque of 250 17 N m (185 13 lb ft).
The assembled length of the springs at both ends of the rocker shaft must be 1.50 0.25 mm (.059 .010 inch). Remove the washers or install the washers behind the springs to change the assembled length of the springs.
Adjust the inlet valve lash to 0.38 0.08 mm (.015 .003 inch) and adjust the exhaust valve lash to 0.64 0.08 mm (.025 .003 inch). Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Air Inlet and Exhaust System" for more information on setting the valve lash. Tighten the locknuts for the adjusting screws (3) to a torque of 29 7 N m (21 5 lb ft). Refer to Specifications, "Valve Rocker Arms and Lifters".End By:
