ENGINE
When p a r t s are properly in-
stalled, the valve clearance de-
pressions in all piston heads and
the oil spurt notches in all con-
necting rods will be toward the
camshaft. The rib on edge of rod
cap will be on same side as the
conical boss on web of rod, and
these marks will be toward the
other connecting rod on the same
crankpin.
15. Check end clearance between
connecting rods on each crankpin
using feeler gauges. Clearance
should be .005"-.012".
16. Install cylinder heads (par.
2-15, d) oil pump (par. 2-25)
and oil pan.
IMPORTANT: After installation of
new pistons and rings, care should
be used in starting the engine and
in running it for the first hour.
Avoid high speeds until the parts
have had a reasonable amount of
break-in so that scuffing will not
occur.
