The document discusses procedures for adjusting the valve clearance and unit injectors on an engine, including specifications, tools used, and adjustment processes.

The specifications provided include the valve clearance sizes, tightening torques for adjustment components, and dimensions for the PDE 31 and PDE 32 unit injectors.

The process involves using special tools to measure the distance between the injector piston and its holder, then adjusting the rocker arm screw until the piston is level with the tool's surface.

Adjusting the valve clearance

Note: Check and adjust the valve


clearance and unit injectors with the
engine cold.

- Use tool 99 309 to rotate the engine.


- Check the valve clearance using a feeler gauge
and use the adjusting screw on the rocker arm
to set the correct clearance.
- The intake valves are actuated by the short
rocker arms and the exhaust valves by the long
rocker arms.
- Make sure the valve bridge is resting correctly
against the valves.
- The intake valve clearance should be 0.45 mm
and exhaust valve clearance 0.70 mm.
- See page 15 for the adjusting order.

Adjusting the unit injector


Important! The PDE 31 unit injector is adjusted
using setting tool 99 414 or a digital sliding
caliper.
The PDE32 unit injector is adjusted using
setting tool 99 442 or a digital sliding
caliper.
This adjustment is essential as a fault in the
position of the unit injector can result in
poor performance and possible breakdown.

1. Screw on the rocker arm adjusting screw 1


while measuring the distance between plane a
and the top of the valve spring collar using a
digital sliding caliper. The distance should be
66.9 mm for PDE31 and 69.9 for PDE32. See
measurement B in the figure for identifying A= PDE31: 66.9 +/-0.1 mm
the injector. PDE32: 69.9 +/-0.1 mm
B = PDE31: 36.5 mm
PDE32: 38.8 mm

! WARNING!

Take care when carrying out the


adjustment if the dimension is well
outside the adjustment dimension. The
spring is pre-tensioned and can cause
personal injury if it is released.

PDE31:
2. Position setting tool 99 414 with the metal
plate around the injector spring.
3. Finely adjust dimension A by simultaneously
using a finger to sense that the small piston 2
is level with the flat upper surface of the tool.
It is possible to sense differences of less than
a tenth of a millimetre.
4. If tool 99 414 is not available: Measure the
distance between plane a and the top of the
valve spring collar using a digital sliding cal-
iper. Adjust the position of the rocker arm
with the adjusting screw until the distance is
66.9+/-0.1 mm.
5. Torque tighten the lock nut to 39 Nm.
6. The order in which the injector rockers are to
be checked/adjusted is shown in the table on
page 15.

Piston above or below the flat


surface. Adjustment necessary

Piston level with the flat surface.

PDE32:

plate around the injector spring.

distance between plane a and the top of the
valve spring collar using a digital sliding cali-
per. Adjust the position of the rocker arm
with the adjusting screw until the distance is
69.9+/-0.1 mm.
10. Torque tighten the lock nut to 39 Nm.
11. The order in which the injector rockers are to
be checked/adjusted is shown in the table on
page 15.

Order of adjustment
Rotate the flywheel using tool 99 309 so that the
mark on the flywheel is visible in the bottom
window according to the table below.

Valve Adjust injector Adjust intake Adjust exhaust


Mark on flywheel
change on rocker arm on valve on valve on
(degrees)
cylinder cylinder cylinder cylinder

TDC Down (0°) 6 4 and 5 7 and 8 4 and 5

TDC Up (180°) 7 2 and 6 1 and 5 2 and 6

TDC Down (360°) 1 3 and 7 2 and 4 3 and 7

TDC Up (540°) 4 1 and 8 3 and 6 1 and 8

It is a good idea to mark the rocker arm with a pen


after adjustment to keep track of what has already
been adjusted.
Torque tighten the lock nut on the rocker arm for
the unit injector to 39 Nm and the lock nut for the
valves to 35 Nm after adjusting.
