Engine Description The overhead valve engine has its four cylinders vertically in line and cast integral with the crankcase. The detachable cylinder head is of cast iron and carries the push rod operated valve gear. Large area water circulating passages and full length water jackets enable the engine to be adequately cooled even under the most arduous operation conditions. Copper-lead plated bearings are utilised in the connecting-rod big end assemblies, thus necessitating complete and clean lubrication at all times, This is ensured by a rotor type oil pump and the provision of a full flow filter. The choice of oils is of great importance and those recommended at the end of this manual have been tested under various running conditions and should be used in accordance with the schedule of regular attentions.
