20 Engine - initial start-up after overhaul 2 1 With the engine refitted in the vehicle, double-check the engine oil and coolant levels. Make a final check that everything has been reconnected and that there are no tools or rags left in the engine compartment. 2 With the spark plugs removed and the ignition system disabled by earthing the ignition HT coil distributor spark plug (HT) lead with a jumper lead, turn the engine over on the starter until the oil pressure warning lamp goes out. Engine removal and general overhaul procedures 2B•17 3 Refit the spark plugs and connect all the spark plug (HT) leads. 4 Start the engine, noting that this may take a little longer than usual due to the fuel system components being empty. 5 While the engine is idling, check for fuel, coolant and oil leaks. Do not be alarmed if there are some odd smells and smoke from parts getting hot and burning off oil deposits. If the hydraulic tappets have been disturbed, some valve gear noise may be heard at first; this should disappear as the oil circulates fully around the engine and normal pressure is restored in the tappets. 6 Keep the engine idling until hot coolant is 1689 Rover 214 & 414 Updated Version 09/97 felt circulating through the top hose, check the ignition timing and idle speed and mixture (as appropriate), then switch it off. 7 After a few minutes, recheck the oil and coolant levels and top up as necessary. 8 If they were tightened as described, there is no need to re-tighten the cylinder head bolts once the engine has first run after reassembly. 9 If new pistons, rings or crankshaft bearings have been fitted, the engine must be run-in for the first 500 miles (800 km). Do not operate the engine at full throttle or allow it to labour in any gear during this period. It is recommended that the oil and filter be changed at the end of this period. 2B
