Cold Start System
- With engine cold (not started for at least 3 hours), verify that idle control lever is resting on lever stop. If lever is okay, go to step 2. If lever is not resting on stop, loosen set screw and turn clevis 1/4 turn. See Figure.
- Rotate crankshaft clockwise 2 revolutions, remove screw plug from TDC access hole in cylinder block, and install TDC Rod. See Figure. Move timing control lever to detent position. Ensure clearance between timing control lever and lever stop is .0020 in. (.5mm).
- If necessary, adjust clearance by turning stop lever screw. Insert a .2561 in. (6.5 mm) shim between control lever and lever stop. Insert a .1181 in. (3.0 mm) shim between throttle lever and idle stop screw. Loosen ball joint nut. See Fig 1.
- Slide ball joint nut until it contacts throttle lever, and tighten. Determine proper clearance (shim thickness) between control lever and lever stop, according to temperature of cold start capsule. See COLD START SYSTEM SHIM THICKNESS chart.COLD START SYSTEM SHIM THICKNESS
Capsule Temperature: °F (°C) Shim Thickness: In.

Align clevis and throttle cable stop. Tighten clevis and throttle cable stop so that they both contact timing control lever.
- Tighten throttle cable stop screw. Remove, and reinsert shim, from between control lever and lever stop, to ensure that clearance is correct. Remove shim.
- Start, and run engine until it reaches normal operating temperature. Verify that throttle and timing control levers are against their respective stops, and that these levers are not binding. Perform DYNAMIC TIMING (ENGINE RUNNING) & IDLE SPEED adjustment procedure under INJECTION PUMP TIMING .
