.
e. Perform the same step as step c for rocker arms
indicated by arrow B.
f. Push the part of the rocker arm which contacts the
top of the lash adjuster. If the rocker arm can be
easily moved down to the bottom, the lash adjuster
is defective, requiring replacement.
When the lash adjuster is replaced, be sure first to
bleed the lash adjuster of air before installation. Then,
perform steps a through e to ensure that no abnormal
symptoms are noted.
NOTE
(1) The leak-down test is an effective means to
accurately determine if the lash adjuster is
operational or not.
(2) For the leak-down test and bleeding procedures,
refer to ENGINE WORKSHOP MANUAL.
If the rocker arm is felt binding and cannot be
pushed downward as you push it, the lash adjuster
is operational. Check for other possible causes
for the noise.
(4) Lash adjuster replacement
Caution
From the cylinder from which the lash adjuster is
to be removed, turn the crankshaft to lower the piston,
as the valve contacts the piston when pushed down.
A rocker arm cannot be removed if it is lifted by the
cam. If this is the case, turn the crankshaft so that
the arm is not lifted.
a. Using the special tool, push the valve downward to
remove the roller rocker arm.
b. Remove the lash adjuster from the cylinder head.
c. Mount a brandnew lash adjuster which has been bled
of air in the cylinder head.
d. Using the special tool, lower the valve and install
the roller rocker arm.
NOTE
To mount the roller rocker arm, first place the pivot
side of the rocker arm on the lash adjuster, then push
down the valve; next, place the slipper side of the
rocker arm on the valve system side.
