Truck Repair - valve & Inj. setting/n-14 plus cumming


Expert: Waheed Shittu - 10/19/2009

Question
Do I have to move the timing letters a, b,and c 360 degrees for each valve setting? Making a total of 6 moves.

Answer
No Felix. you need only two revolutions to complete the setting of the six cylinders.
If you start from A 1-6 vs you will adjust the corresponding injector and valve. Then move to B 2-5 vs and do the same, then to C 3-4 vs as well. you would have completed adjust on 3 injectors and three set of valves. You will move to A 1-6 vs on the second revolution to complete the remaining 3 cylinders of injector/valve setting.

You cannot adjust on TC (Top Dead center) mark, only on the vs marks.
If you still need further clarifications, pls. let me know.

Cheers.
