      HINT: 

      By not using the camshaft lobe to push up the pump lifter surface, it is easier to install the fuel pump and No. 3 fuel pipe later.

    2. Pour 30 cm3 (1.8 cu. in.) of engine oil through the cylinder head cover's fuel pump attachment hole into the cylinder head oil collector.
    3. Apply a coat of engine oil to the pump activation cam and pump lifter.
