The document provides instructions for servicing engines, including checking camshaft timing and lift. It outlines the procedure for using a dial indicator to ensure proper timing between the camshaft and crankshaft.

You remove the valve cover and rocker arm assembly from a cylinder. Then use a rod through the spark plug hole and a dial indicator on the piston to mark timing lines on the vibration damper corresponding to top dead center.

You use a dial indicator extension on the piston, then on the intake cam follower roller, to check the lift at top dead center. The reading is compared to a specified range in the tables provided.

25. Check the dial indicator reading and compare the reading with the values
listed in Table 1-10 to determine the correct indicator reading.

26. If the camshaft lift is incorrect, re-time the engine. Refer to section 1.22.2.1.
27. Refer to section 11.8 for verification of proper camshaft and camshaft bearing installation.

1.24 CAMSHAFT AND CAMSHAFT BEARING

1.24.6.2 Testing of Camshaft Timing for Natural Gas Engines

Check the camshaft timing as follows:

NOTICE:
The camshaft must be in time with the crankshaft. An engine
which is "out of time" may result in pre-ignition, uneven running
or a loss of power.

1. Remove the valve cover. Refer to section 1.6.2 for one-piece rocker cover.
Refer to section 1.6.3 for two-piece rocker cover. Refer to section 1.6.5 for three-piece
rocker cover.
2. Select any cylinder for the timing check.
3. Remove the rocker arm assembly for the cylinder selected. Refer to section 1.3.2.
4. Remove the spark plug for that cylinder.
5. Carefully slide a rod, approximately 304.8 mm (12 in.) long, through the spark plug hole
until the end of the rod rests on top of the piston.
6. Using the 3/4 in. square drive hole in the center of the crankshaft pulley and a 3/4 in. drive
breaker bar, turn the crankshaft slowly in the direction of engine rotation. See Figure 1-407.
Stop when the rod reaches the end of its upward travel.

Figure 1-407 Barring Engine Over

NOTE:
The cylinder selected must be on the compression stroke when performing this check.

7. Remove the rod and turn the crankshaft, opposite the direction of rotation, between 1/16
and 1/8 of a turn.
8. Select a dial indicator with 0.0254 mm (0.001 in.) graduations and a spindle movement of
at least 25.4 mm (1 in.). Provide an extension for the indicator spindle. The extension must
be long enough to contact the piston just before it reaches the end of its upward stroke.
9. Install a magnetic dial indicator base in a suitable place on the cylinder head and position
the dial indicator over the spark plug hole.
10. Attach a suitable pointer to the gear case cover. The outer end of the pointer should
extend over the vibration damper.
11. Turn the crankshaft slowly in the direction of engine rotation until the indicator hand
just stops moving. Continue turning the crankshaft until the indicator hand starts to
move again.
12. Reset the dial to zero.
13. Turn the crankshaft until the indicator reading is 0.254 mm (0.010 in.).
14. Scribe a line on the vibration damper in line with the end of the pointer.
15. Slowly turn the crankshaft opposite the direction of engine rotation until the indicator
hand just stops moving. Continue turning the crankshaft until the indicator hand starts to
move again.
16. Reset the dial to zero. Then turn the crankshaft in the same direction until the indicator
reading is 0.254 mm (0.010 in.).
17. Scribe a second line on the vibration damper in line with the end of the pointer.
18. Scribe a third line half way between the first two lines. This is top dead center for the
cylinder selected when the pointer is lined up with it.
19. Remove the dial indicator and base from the engine.
20. Install the spark plug that was removed.
21. Install the rocker arm assemblies. Refer to section 1.3.3.
22. Turn the crankshaft opposite the direction of engine rotation while watching the intake
rocker arm cam follower for the cylinder selected. Turn the crankshaft until the cam
follower is on the base circle of that intake lobe of the cam.
23. Install a magnetic dial indicator base on the cylinder head. Install a dial indicator so that
the spindle rests directly on the intake cam follower roller for the cylinder selected.

NOTE:
The spindle should be on the center line of the intake cam follower roller pin in order to
get an accurate measurement of cam lift.

24. Turn the crankshaft slowly, in the direction of engine rotation, until the center mark on the
vibration damper lines up with the pointer.
25. Check the dial indicator reading:
