Installation and maintenance

To ensure optimal performance, technicians should inspect the valvetrain during regular maintenance intervals. When performing installation, it is vital to check for any uneven wear on the rocker shaft or bushings. Proper lubrication of moving contact surfaces is essential to reduce friction and prevent premature wear of the new components.
