HLA Installation Note

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Mazda CX-30. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Perform HLA air bleeding using the following procedure.
    1. Put the HLA in a container filled with engine oil.
      CAUTION:
      • Do not insert the round bar firmly because the check ball spring force is extremely weak.
    2. While lightly pressing the check ball using a round bar (approx. 1.0 mm {0.039 in} diameter), bleed air by moving the plunger up and down.

    3. Press the end of the plunger in the oil and verify that there is no rebounding feel.
      • If rebounding feel cannot be eliminated, replace the HLA.
  2. Visually inspect the HLA surface where it contacts the rocker arm for wear or damage.
    • If there is any malfunction, replace the HLA.
