Engine Valve Lash - Inspect/Adjust

SMCS - 1102-025

To prevent possible injury, do not use the starter to turn the flywheel.

Hot engine components can cause burns. Allow additional time for the
engine to cool before measuring valve clearance.

This engine uses high voltage to control the fuel injectors.

Disconnect electronic fuel injector enable circuit connector to prevent

personal injury.

Do not come in contact with the fuel injector terminals while the engine
is running.

Note: Valve lash is measured between the rocker arm and the valve bridge. All measurements and
adjustments must be made with the engine stopped and the valves fully closed.

1. Put the number 1 piston at Top Dead Center (TDC) on the compression stroke. Refer to the
Testing and Adjusting, Finding Top Center Position No. 1 Piston.

Note: To check that the number 1 piston is on TDC, both the inlet and exhaust valves on
cylinder number 1 will move freely. If the valves do not move freely, cylinder number 1 is
on TDC of the exhaust stroke. Install the timing pin in the flywheel.

Cylinders 1–2–4 1–3–5

2. Adjust the valve lash using the specifications from Table 1.

a. Lightly tap the rocker arm with a soft mallet.

Note: This ensures that the roller lifter seats against the base circle of the camshaft.

b. Loosen the adjustment locknut for the appropriate valves.

c. Place the feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve bridge.

d. Turn the adjustment screw in a clockwise direction while sliding the feeler gauge
back and forth between the rocker arm and valve bridge. Continue turning the
adjustment screw in a clockwise direction until a slight drag is felt on the feeler
gauge.

e. Tighten the adjustment locknut to 30 ± 7 N·m (22 ± 5 lb ft).

Note: Do not allow the adjustment screw to turn while torquing the locknut.

f. Recheck the valve lash after tightening the adjustment locknut. Remove the feeler
gauge.

3. Follow the steps below to set the mechanical unit injectors on TDC of number 1 piston
compression stroke.

Note: Injectors for cylinders 3, 5, and 6 can be adjusted at TDC of number 1 piston
compression stroke.

a. Loosen the adjustment locknut for the injector.

b. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise until the screw contacts the mechanical
electronic unit injector.

c. Turn the adjustment screw an additional two turns clockwise to push all of the fuel
out of the injector plunger.

Note: The additional turns will ensure the injector pre-load is set accurately.

d. Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise for 2.5 turns.

e. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise until the screw contacts the injector.

f. Turn the screw clockwise an additional 180 degrees or half turn.

g. Tighten the locknut to 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft) while not allowing the adjustment
screw to turn for C13 engines. Tighten the locknut to 100 ± 10 N·m (74 ± 7 lb ft)
while not allowing the adjustment screw to turn for C15 and C18 engines

4. Remove the timing pin and rotate the engine 360 degrees in the direction of engine rotation.
This will put the engine at TDC of number 6 piston. Pin the flywheel with the timing pin.

Note: To check that the number 1 piston is on TDC, both the inlet and exhaust valves on
cylinder number 6 will move freely. If the valves do not move freely, cylinder number 6 is
on TDC of the exhaust stroke. Install the timing pin in the flywheel.

5. Adjust the valve lash using the specifications from Table 2.

a. Lightly tap the rocker arm with a soft mallet.

Note: This ensures that the roller lifter seats against the base circle of the camshaft.

b. Loosen the adjustment locknut for the appropriate valves.

c. Place the feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve bridge.

d. Turn the adjustment screw in a clockwise direction while sliding the feeler gauge
back and forth between the rocker arm and valve bridge. Continue turning the
adjustment screw in a clockwise direction until a slight drag is felt on the feeler
gauge.

e. Tighten the adjustment locknut to 30 ± 7 N·m (22 ± 5 lb ft).

Note: Do not allow the adjustment screw to turn while torquing the locknut.

f. Recheck the valve lash after tightening the adjustment locknut. Remove the feeler
gauge.

6. Follow the steps below to set the mechanical unit injectors on TDC of number 6 piston
compression stroke.

Note: Injectors for cylinders 1, 2, and 4 can be adjusted at TDC of number 6 piston
compression stroke.

a. Loosen the adjustment locknut for the injector.

b. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise until the screw contacts the mechanical
electronic unit injector.

c. Turn the adjustment screw an additional two turns clockwise to push all of the fuel
out of the injector plunger.

Note: The additional turns will ensure the injector pre-load is set accurately.

d. Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise for 2.5 turns.

e. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise until the screw contacts the injector.

f. Turn the screw clockwise an additional 180 degrees or half turn.

g. Tighten the locknut to 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft) while not allowing the adjustment
screw to turn for C13 engines. Tighten the locknut to 100 ± 10 N·m (74 ± 7 lb ft)
while not allowing the adjustment screw to turn for C15 and C18 engines

7. Reinstall the timing pin cover and valve covers. Refer to the Disassembly and Assembly
manual.

1. Adjust the compression brake lash using the specifications from Table 3.

a. Loosen the adjustment screw locknut. Turn the screw clockwise until contact is made
with the exhaust rocker arm.

b. Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise two full turns or until the compression
brake rod is no longer contacting the exhaust rocker arm.

Note: This process will ensure that all of the oil is out of the cylinder for the
compression brake.

c. Install the feeler gauge between the brake piston and the exhaust rocker arm.

d. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise while sliding the feeler gauge back and forth
between the brake piston and rocker arm. Continue turning the adjustment screw in a
clockwise direction until a slight drag is felt on the feeler gauge.

e. Leave the feeler gauge between the brake piston and rocker arm. Tighten the
adjustment locknut to 15 ± 3 N·m (11 ± 2 lb ft).
