To fit a new type 'D' plug
Caution: The baffle plates on the new type 'D' plug must be fitted horizontally and vertically to within ± 5°.
This will ensure the maximum performance of the baffle plates.
1 Ensure that the recess in the cylinder block is clean and free from damage.
2 Apply POWERPART Pipe sealant to the outer edge of the 'D' plug (B2).
3 Place the 'D' plug into its recess. The 'D' plug must be fitted with the baffle plates within ± 5° of the horizontal
and vertical lines (C).
4 Use the tool (D) to fit the 'D' plug into the recess in the cylinder block until it is recessed (D1) to a depth of
3,0 mm (0.12 in). All measurements for the tool are in millimetres.
5 Remove any excess sealant.
6 Fit the push rods and locate under the adjustment screws. From the top of the engine look down into the
tappet chamber to ensure that there is clearance between the push rods and the baffle plates on the 'D' plug.
7 Adjust the tappets, see Operation 3-6 or Operation 3-7.
8 Fit the rocker cover, see Operation 3-2.
