Inspection and Troubleshooting

After removing, wash all parts with gasoline, wipe and dry.

Inspect the camshaft. If there are scuffs, deep scratches, shells, chips, cracks on the necks, cams and gear of the oil pump drive, replace the camshaft.

Measure the diameters of the camshaft journals, the nominal diameters of the journals are indicated in the table.

Inspect the push rods. Replace bent rods.

If there are signs of wear, scuffing, shells on the tips of the rods, also replace the rods.

It should be noted that the length of the engine rod mod. 402 is 283 mm, and the engine mod. 4021 - 287 mm.

Inspect the pushers. If there are signs of wear, pitting, scuffing, etc. on the working surfaces, replace the pushers.

If the camshaft gear is damaged or cracked, it must be replaced.

Measure the camshaft end play.

To do this, assemble the shaft with a gear wheel, put a spacer ring and a thrust flange on the front end of the camshaft, then press the gear wheel and tighten the gear wheel mounting bolt with a washer.

Tighten the bolt to 55–60 Nm (5.5–6.0 kgf m).

Measure the gap between the thrust flange of the camshaft and the hub of the gear wheel with a feeler gauge, it should be within 0.1–0.2 mm.

Install the camshaft in the reverse order of removal.

Before installing, lubricate the camshaft journals and cams, tappets and pushrods with engine oil.

After installation, adjust the clearances in the valve drive.
