SETTING THE INJECTION ADVANCE

CHECKING AND SETTING THE INJECTION TIMING

1

Install the special maintenance tool SST and the dial gauge.
a) Remove the bolt from the injection pump timing cap plug.
b) Install the special maintenance tool SST (plunger stroke
measurement tool reference: 970312378) and the dial gauge on
the hole for the timing cap plug.

2.

Put the cylinder no. 1 or no. 4 piston between approximately 25

or more before dead top center of the compression stroke.
Turn the crankshaft pulley counter-clockwise so that the notch in the
pulley is at 25 or more from the timing cap indicator.

Release the automatic cold start system.

a) Use a screwdriver to turn the cold start lever counter-clockwise by
approximately 20.
b) Insert a metal plate (thickness 8.5 to 10 mm) between the cold start
relay and the thermal wax plunger.

Check the injection timing.

a) Adjust the dial gauge to 0 mm.
b) Check again that the dial gauge is effectively on 0 mm while slightly
turning the crankshaft pulley clockwise or counter-clockwise.

c) Slowly rotate the crankshaft pulley clockwise until the notch of the
pulley is aligned with the notch of the timing indicator.
d) Measure the plunger stroke.

Plunger stroke:
0.46 mm

If the recorded value is not within the tolerances:

e) Loose the following assembly bolts and nuts.

1) The 4 attachment nuts of the injection pipe coupling on injection
pump side.

2) The bolts securing the injection pump to the injection pump spacer.

3) The 2 attachment nuts securing the injection pump to the timing

gear casing.

f) Adjust the plunger stroke by gradually inclining the injection pump

body. If the plunger stroke is less than the limits stipulated in the
specifications, incline the injection pump towards the engine.
If the plunger stroke is greater than the limits stipulated in the
specifications, incline the injection pump away from the engine.

g) Re-tighten the following assembly bolts and nuts.

1) The 2 attachment nuts securing the injection pump to the timing
gear casing.

Recommended tightening torque:

21 .N.m (210 kgf.cm)

2) The bolts securing the injection pump on the injection pump space.
Recommended tightening torque: 32 N.m (330 kgf.cm)
* Verify the travel of the plunger piston

3) The four attachment nuts of the injection pipe coupling on injection

pump side.
Recommended tightening torque: 15 N.m (150 kgf.cm)
REMOVE THE STEEL PLATE

REMOVE THE SPECIAL MAINTENANCE TOOL SST AND DIAL

GAUGE
a) Remove the special maintenance tool SST and the dial gauge
b) Install a new gasket and the timing head cap bolt.

Recommended tightening torque: 25.5 N.m (260 kgf.cm)

START THE ENGINE AND VERIFY WHETHER THERE ARE ANY

LEAKS

To remove the injection pump it is necessary to use the pulley extractor
