MAINTENANCE - RECOMMENDED OIL - FUELS AND LUBRICANTS The engine could be damaged if allowed to operate with insufficient oil. It is also dangerous to add too much oil as its combustion could sharply increase the rotation speed. Use a suitable oil in order to protect the engine. The lubrication oil influences the performances and life of the engine in an incredible way.

If the general condition is good, reset the face track P in the seat with a grinding of: 90' exhaust - 90' intake for engine LGA 280 OHC 90' exhaust - 121' intake for engine LGA 340 OHC Check the guides, valves, seats after assembly.
DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY VIII Valves and valve-guides gap NOMINAL LIMIT C - A 0.028 - 0.070 0.14 D - B 0.045 - 0.080 0.14 VALVE GUIDES Check that the valve guides are not scored, show signs of seizing or carbon deposits. Cheeking of the valve guides wear (fig. 10) can be carried out using a plug go-no-go gauge with pitch code 1460.103 on page 42.
88° exhaust- 120° intake for engine LGA 340 OHC N.B.: Valve seats with angles of 90° (exhaust) and 120° (intake) will be used in the LGA 280 OHC too. Please check technical informative sheet for introdution date. Following prolonged engine operation, the hammering of the valves on the seats, at high temperatures, hardens the track P (fig.8) making manual grinding impossible.
DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY VIII VALVE SPRINGS Check the general conditions of the valve springs, replacing them if they are damaged or their original characteristics are compromised. Check that the lengths under load corresponds to the values indicated in fig. lf these values are not achieved, change the spring. TAPPETS Check the general conditions, if the side surfaces of the cylinders are scored, replace the tappets...

DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY VIII DRIVE SHAFT Check that the main journal and crank pin are not scored and show no signs of seizing. Slight scores or notches can be taken up using a fine file and finished with the same type of emery cloth. Check that the cones, keys and end threads are not deformed and free of notches.
DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY VIII BALANCING SHAFT (optional) (fig. 27b) This shaft is monted on two ball bearings, one in the crankcase, the other in the timing cover. For assembling the balancing shaft, position the crankshaft as in fig 27a in order that he reference marks of the balancing shaft gear are in corrispondence with the ones of the crankshaft gear.
DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY VIII RECOIL STARTER This is a manual starting device that, with the use of a spring, rewinds the rope on a disk after starting. The starter components are listed below: 1) Dogs guide housing 5) Rope return spring 2) Spring 6) Rope 3) Starter dogs 7) Handle...
DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY VIII OIL WATCH DEVICE (optional) This is a protection system that activates by switching off the engine when the oil drops below the required level during operation. The OIL WATCH device activates in the following cases: 1) insufficient oil; 2) low oil level.
VIII DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY SPEED GOVERNOR Fit the governor gear on the pin attached to the timing cover and lock it in position with the circlip, then fit the cap and the counter weight. The two counter weights are fixed to the governor gear by means of two holed rivets;...

The starter motor is of the SYCE PN1 12 v - 0.15 KW type. BATTERY The battery (not supplied by LOMBARDINI) must provide a voltage of 12 V and a capacity of not less than 30 Ah. N.B.: The battery capacity functions according to ambient temperature, therefore batteries with greater capacities are required for particularly low temperatures.
ADJUSTMENTS ENGINE ASSEMBLY BREATHER VALVE: clean the breather valve with petrol and check the condition; before assembly check that the rubber gasket is not damaged. FAN COWL AND COOLING AIR DUCTS: check that are not dam- aged and tighten the screws at a torque of: 9.8 Nm - 1 Kgm. INTAKE MANIFOLD AND CARBURETOR: fit the intake manifold on the engine and, after having positioned the gaskets, fit the carburetor.
ADJUSTMENTS STARTING WITH THE RECOIL STARTER After having carried out the operations noted above, pull the rope sharply (fig. 57) and allow the engine to turn over for a few seconds before opening the starter. ELECTRIC STARTING Before turning the starter key, make sure that all connections are in order, especially the rectifier and the battery ground connections.
STORAGE STORAGE TEMPORARY INACTIVITY lf the engine has to remain temporarily unused, it is advised to carry out the following operations: - allow the engine to turn over for ten minutes, drain off the oil from the crankcase when the engine is hot (fig 60); - replace the oil drain plug and fill up with new oil (fig.61) of the type described on page 15;...
