How to solve the pinking problems...

[ocsike74]

Last winter I heard some pinking from my 86' GL Coupe 4WD. Now in spring I planned to solve this problem. First I bought two rockers, to have the necessary spare parts at hand. Then started with desmounting to the timing belts.

Then started to desmount the outer walve cower, 5piece of 12mm bolts. After that wery carefully to not moisture anytying had to take out the 12 mm screws 8 pieces, than took out the axle. then rocker out, but first took the walvepushers out, and clean them.

Dismantling the rocker what I diagnosed by pushing it and feeling not so hard then the others, I cleaned it from dirty oil mud.

Then everything was remounted in the reverse order.

Wery much attention was added to the mountig with Gasket-sealant silicone to avoid oil leaking. The surfaces was cleaned with Loctite metal cleaner to permit a good aderence to silicone.

I take a big attention to the O-rings to be in good conditions to stop leaking.

All the job take 10 ours. That's all.
