Really Basic Engine Assembly Question

Brain-fade has struck.

On a 5 cylinder diesel engine (617-952):
The rocker arms are divided into two groups – a set for 2 cylinders, and a set for 3 cylinders. I forgot which set goes toward the front of the engine, and which goes toward the rear.

It seems as though they would fit in either location, but that’s not right… Plus I want to make sure that the camshaft is running on the same rocker arms as before.

Thanks for the help

You will probably get an answer before I get home and can look at the manual but I will check this evening if you have not gotten an answer and let you know.

The set of rockers for two cylinders (four rocker arms) are for cylinders #1 & 2. The set of rockers for three cylinders (six rocker arms) are for cylinders #3, 4, and 5. Also, the different rocker arm assemblies fit between the cam tower/bearing assemblies and the distance between the cam tower/bearing will prevent mounting the rocker assemblies in the wrong place.

Good Luck!
Tom
