No. 1 piston is on exhaust stroke if intake and exhaust valves are
open and rocker arms cannot be moved by hand.
6.
Rotate crankshaft clockwise 360 degrees to next stroke position until timing bolt engages non-
threaded hole in flywheel.
7.
Repeat step 4 to check valve clearance.
8.
If adjustment is not required, perform Fuel Injector Timing Adjustment (WP 0322 00).
ADJUSTMENT

Before performing intake and exhaust valve adjustment, ensure
No. 1 piston is at top center (TC) and correct stroke is identified.
Refer to table 1, Crankshaft Positions for Valve Clearance Setting.
1.
Using soft hammer, tap adjusting screw (5) of rocker arm (4).
2.
Loosen jamnut (6) and insert feeler gauge between rocker arm (4) and valve (3).
3.
