I pull the glow plugs so it is easy to turn over. Turn it by hand with the fan. Fireing order is 153624. Watch the valves on #6 & when the ex closes & in starts to open , # 1 is on compression. Set the valves on # 1. Turn until #2 is rocking & set #5 continue until done. 1&6 ,, 2&5, and 3&4 are running mates. Understand or do I have you confused by now? I don't know the specs as my books are in the shop.

It can be all be done at @1 TDC (on the compression stroke) and then one full turn later, at #6 TDC.

One other point.... when the book says "adjust valves warm" it means.... Warm = stabilized at room temperature above 50 degrees F.
