July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Oil Jet Bolt Inspection

  1. Remove the oil jet bolt (see OIL JET REPLACEMENT ).
  2. Inspect the oil jet bolt as follows.
    • Make sure that a 0.6 mm (0.02 in.) diameter drill will go through the oil intake (0.7 mm (0.03 in.) diameter). Make sure the check ball (A) moves smoothly and has a stroke of about 4.0 mm (0.16 in.)
    • Check the oil jet bolt operation with an air nozzle. It should take at least 120 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm, 17 psi) to unseat the check ball.
