The distributor rotor is now adjacent to No. I H.T.
connection in the distributor cap. No. I H.T. lead
should be fitted to this connection and No. I
cylinder spark plug and the other H.T. leads to give
the correct firing order of I, 3, 4, 2. The distributor
rotor rotates in an anti-clockwise direction as seen
when the distributor cap is· removed.
Set the ignition timing by one of the methods
previously described.

turning the engine progressively through two

The correct valve clearances are given In the Data
Section.
To adjust clearance, slacken lock nut and turn
screw with screwdriver until correct clearance Is
obtained. Tighten lock nut and re-check clearance.
Check all valves in this manner, then refit rocker
cover.
ROCKER SHAFT ASSEMBLIES
To remove
Remove rocker cover. Undo union nut and dis
connect oil pipe to rocker shaft.
Remove eight nuts securing the rocker standar�s
to the cylinder head.
Lift out rocker shafts and upper oil feed complete.
To dismantle
Remove spring clip from one end of each assembly
and take off rockers, standard and springs, noting
their correct order for reassembly.
Inspect rockers and shaft and replace if worn or
scored.
To reassemble
Assemble the components on the rocker shaft in
the order shown in Fig. 15, locating the standards
on each shaft to allow the oil feed holes to face
downwards. Note that the rockers are offset.
To refit (See Fig. 15)
Make sure that each rocker shaft assembly is fitted
with its open end towards the oil feed "T" piece,
which is then inserted between the two shafts with
its elbow facing the push rods.
The other ends of the shafts are plugged.
The rocker shafts are grooved and located by the
rocker standard studs nearest to the valves. Upon
reassembly the grooves should be located on the
side nearest the valves.
