Triton 4D56 Valve Adjustment Tutorial

Although a massive job, valve clearances must be adjusted according to the manufacturer’s recommendations on this 4D56 Mitsubishi diesel engine. If the clearances are too loose, excessive noise and increased wear on the cams, rockers and valve tips could occur. Too tight could create harder starting, no start, poor idle and the possibility of burnt valves, to name just a few.

Such a variety of stuff I can't begin to understand. But I know you are good at what you do.

[@MiracleMAX]

Much appreciated 😊👍

[@colinreid7305]

Another useful video. Many people have lost the skill/experience adjusting valve clearances.

[@MiracleMAX]

Great point! But adjusting them is probably more crucial due to tighter clearances....

[@nigelwebber1472]

Thx MM. Very thorough.

[@MiracleMAX]

Thanks mate 👍

[@davidplaten2701]

Very helpful video for us diy guys who choose to do our own mechanical work. I found this very useful and will resort back to this when I do the timing belt and major service on my mn triton. Thankyou

[@MiracleMAX]

Great to hear. That's exactly why I did the video. I have quite a few Triton videos that you might find useful. I should do a timing belt video next Triton I get booked in....

👍Hi Max, how did you turn the engine and if it was an automatic transmission did you have it in neutral?
On my 74 alfa I use a socket on the crank pulley.

[@MiracleMAX]

Yes, I used the crank bolt to turn the engine. It's only a manual gearbox that you would have to put it in neutral to turn as the transmission is not directly mechanically connected to the engine with an automatic.

[@mattduncan8304]

Where did you get the adjusting tool from?
