Oil
f
ilter
Clean oil for lubrication
of the engine is
provided
by the
oil Íilter, which is Íitted in
an horizontal
position
between
the
pump
and
the
lubrication
circuit
(see
FIG
1 :16).
The
filter body is made
of light alloy and is Íitted
with
a
cleanable cartridge which
should be cleaned
at each
occasion of draining the
sump.
The
capacity
oÍ the filter
is
approximately
1
pint.
On
later
cars an'Easi-change',
or
Lockheed,
disposable
Íilter
cartridge
is
used. This should
be changed every 6000
miles
(10,000
km).
The
pressure
switch, which
is fitted
onto the f ilter
body,
switches oÍf the

which are normally available in
complete
sets,
and
lubricate
all

lnstall
the flywheel and clutch, then the
oil
pump,
ensuring
correct
meshing
to enable the distributor to
be
timed.
Install
the oil sumo.

in
the normal way,
i.e.
with a
Íeeler
gauge
inserted
between
the valve stem and the
rocker
arm or tappet and
screwing
in or out on the adjusting screw.
The rocker
clearances should be
set at
