Oil pressure check
When assembly operations are completed fill engine with oil and
fuel; connect a 10 bar pressure gauge to the oil filter fitting.
Start the engine and check pressure as a function of the oil
temperature (see below).
Calibrated pipe for lubrication of hydraulic tappets
The pipe is fitted to the hydraulic tappets oil line (see fig. 83, detail
11).
If the calibrated hole is clogged, the tappets are not sufficiently
lubricated, valve clearance is therefore increased and the engine
may be noisier.
If the diameter of the calibrated pipe is larger than the ones given
in picture 93, the pressure exerted by the hydraulic tappets may
cause the valves to remain open even during the compression
phase.
