DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CYLINDER HEAD FLOW
1.Cast-in groove between cylinder head and
camshaft carrier
2.Rocker shaft flow
3.Lash adjuster supply channels (10 off)
4.Non-return valve
5.Chain lubrication jet supply6.Oil return from vacuum pump
7.Oil supply to timing chain tensioner adjuster
8.Oil supply to vacuum pump
9.Oil supply hole to camshaft sprocket and timing
chain
Oil passes to the cylinder head from the cylinder block via a non-return valve which is included to prevent oil
draining away from the lash adjusters when the engine is switched off.
Oil is passed to a cast-in groove between the top of the cylinder head and the camshaft carrier. The part of the
channel on the top left hand side of the cylinder head has ten cross-drillings which supply oil to the hydraulic lash
adjusters and finger followers. Lubrication oil fed to the lash adjusters passes up through the lash adjuster body
and into the socket of the finger followers. The oil exits the finger followers through a small hole to lubricate the
surfaces between the camshaft lobes and rollers.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION An additional tapping is included at the front left hand side of the cylinder head to supply oil to the chain lubrication
jet and a through hole near the front centre of the cylinder head allows a passage of oil through from the cast-in
groove to lubricate the timing chain and camshaft sprocket.
At the centre front of the cylinder head, the cast-in groove channels oil into the rocker shaft via the front rocker
shaft fixing. Oil flow through the rocker shaft and clearance around the rocker shaft fixings provides oil feed to the
camshaft bearings.
A tapping towards the right hand side of the cylinder head diverts oil supply from the cast-in groove down to a stub
pipe which attaches to a feed line to the vacuum pump. An hydraulic tensioner is located below the vacuum stub
pipe which receives oil through a small hole in the side of the tensioner body to force a plunger against a plastic
faced adjuster shoe for timing chain tensioning. Oil from the vacuum pump is returned to the a port in the timing
chain cover via a short hose which connects to stub pipes at both ends using spring clips.

13.Position camshaft in camshaft carrier.
14.Check end-float of camshaft using a DTI.
Camshaft end-float = 0.06 to 0.16 mm (0.002 to
0.006in).
15.Renew components as necessary to achieve
correct end-float.
CAUTION: Cylinder head and camshaft
carrier are machined together as an
assembly. If bearing surfaces in either
component are found to be damaged, complete
assembly must be replaced.
NOTE: The procedure for checking
camshaft bearing clearances is covered in
Td5 Engine Overhaul section - Cylinder
head - overhaul.Refit
16.Using a suitable cleaning solvent, clean mating
faces of cylinder head and camshaft carrier.
17.Blow out all oilways and waterways.
18.Ensure threaded holes in cylinder head and
camshaft carrier are clean and dry.
CAUTION: Support each end of the
cylinder head on blocks of wood. With
camshaft carrier bolted down some valves
and the injector nozzles will protrude from the
face of cylinder head.
19.Fit new adjusting screws fully into rocker arms.
Fit new lock nuts to screws but do tighten.
CAUTION: Ensure screws are correct for
type of rocker arms fitted. Replacement
screws for Engine Serial No. Prefixes 15P
to 19P have a centre punch mark adjacent to the
adjusting screw slot. These screws are not
interchangeable with those fitted to Engine Serial
No. Prefixes 10P to 14P.
20.Lubricate cams and bearing journals on
camshaft, cylinder head and camshaft carrier
with clean engine oil.
21.Position camshaft in cylinder head with the
timing pin hole in the vertical position.
22.Apply an even film of sealant, Part No. STC
4600 to camshaft carrier face as shown and
spread to an even film using a roller.
CAUTION: Ensure sealant does not block
oilways (arrowed) or contaminate
camshaft bearings. Assembly and bolt
tightening must be completed within 20 minutes
of applying sealant.
23.Fit camshaft carrier ensuring that it is correctly
located on dowels.
24.Fit and lightly tighten camshaft carrier bolts.
