Rocker shaft springs

<< < (2/2)

taysidedragon:
The parts manual is definitely wrong. It shows the springs in the same positions on both rocker shafts,but the photo shows the exhaust side springs are positioned differently to the inlet side.

No the parts manual is correct, it's just the way they have laid out the rocker shafts, it's not exactly drawn very well.

If you look at the nut which goes on the outside of the rocker cover, then the shaft, the next thing on would be the spring, then the rocker, then another rocker and finally spring. That's exactly like it is in the photo.

The inlet rocker shafts start with the spring but the exhaust starts with the rocker whereas in the manual all shafts start with a spring, unless im reading it wrong  :-\

Oddjob:
You are correct, I was only looking at the inlet side, I presumed Honda would have done them the same but clearly not.
