This Chapter brings together repair procedures that
are common to all engines. Instructions for fitting the
various engine parts are accompanied by charts that
conveniently list the tolerances for all engines. This
eliminates searching through the book for specifications.
For added convenience, a complete list of specifications
is included in the back of the book.
Engine removal and installation procedures are pre-
sented first with respect to the body style and then are
subdivided according to the engine. This eliminates repe-
tition of preliminary operation procedures and quickly
(luides the reader to the procedure for any combination
of body style and engine.
