4.
The injector pump internal unit can
now
be loosened and removed. It may
be
necessary to remove
fuel lines from injector nozzles to aid
in
pump removal
5.
There are several shims located just below the pump top plate which will
be
used to adjust the
timing. These shims are
.006
inch thick and are equal to
1-V
2° or approximately 3/16" of distance
on
the circumference of the flywheel. Addition of shims will retard the timing and removing shims
will advance the timing.
6.
If the mark on the flywheel is below the pointer, the fuel is being injected sooner than required and
the fuel timing must
be
retarded. Shims must
be
added until the timing marks are aligned. The op-
posite is true if the flywheel mark is above the pointer. See figure
5.
7.
If at all possible, it
is
better
to
operate the engine with the timing advance rather than retarded.
8.
Replace fuel injector pump, making sure the fuel rack pin aligns with the housing opening and is
properly inserted into the slotted arm. Tighten injector pump cover in place. Reconnect fuel line
from fuel filter
to
pump. Repeat steps 2 thru
12
on engine timing.
9.
If timing is satisfactory, then reassemble.
Be
certain that all plates, covers, fuel lines and connec-
tions are tight and free of leaks so that safe operation may
be
expected when the engine is
started. Clean engine throughly.
10.
Caution:
Be
sure
all
fuel lines and connections are kept clean during adjusting, to prevent fouling
of
nozzles when reassembled.

SHIM PLACEMENT
DECOMPRESSION DEVICE ADJUSTMENT:
(on
models which have decompression)
The decompression device must
be
adjusted every time the rocker arm cover is removed or tightened.
1.
Remove cover over flywheel timing mark inspection hole. (Tool
B).
No decompression lever
on
models
12
and 35.
2.
Turn crankshaft over by hand being careful not to damage the spline
on
end of crankshaft,
until flywheel mark 1-TC is aligned with the pointer
on
the wall of the inspection hole.
3.
Remove decompression covers from top of rocker arm cover over number 1 cylinder. (Tool
A).
4.
With the alignment of the pointer and flywheel mark 1-TC the no. 1 cylinder decompression
adjustment
can
now
be
accomplished.
5.
Pull and hold lever to full decompression position.
