FLY WHEEL REMOVAL AND 
INSTALLATION 

 

Removal 

Remove 9 fixing bolts. New bolts shall be used 
for installation. 

Remove the fly wheel to check whether there 
are cracks on the friction surface of the clutch 
plate and there is abrasion and pit corrosion on 
the teeth of the ring gear, etc.   

 

Installation 

The clearance of the ring gear and the fly 
wheel is 0.48-0.86mm. The ring gear shall be 
pressed into the fly wheel after heating. 

The gauge holes of the fly wheel and the 
locating journal are easy fit at a clearance of 
0.012-0.074mm. It

 

shall be gently pushed into 

the journal after alignment. Do not hammer at 
the crank shaft.   

During the assembly process, align the 
installation mark bore and the manufacturing 
bore on the crank shaft. Tighten 9 new bolts 
applied with a coat of glue in advance at a 
moment of 82-92Nm. 

 

 

REAR OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT 

 

Removal 

Remove 4 bolts (as indicated by arrows). 

Take the rear oil seal support assembly out. 

Take the rear oil seal support gasket.

Installation 

Put the support on the vice clamp whose jaw 
has a piece of wood.   

Make the side with the part numbers of the rear 
oil seal outward and align the rear oil seal with 
the rear oil seal support bore. Press the rear oil 
seal into its support with a vice clamp, with the 
clearance between the rear oil seal and oil seal 
support bore to be 0.26—0.50mm. 

 

 

 

 

Install the new rear oil seal support gasket. 

Install the rear oil seal assembly. Before 
assembling, wrap a piece of plastic plate on the 
crank shaft to avoid colliding the oil seal. And 
apply some motor oil on the oil seal edge and 
oil seal journal.   

Measure the out-of-flat of the bottom plane of 
the rear oil seal bracket and the sump flange 
surface of the cylinder block, which shall be 
within the range of  ±0.26mm. 

 

 

 

Tighten the 4 M6 bolts to a moment of 
8.0-11.0Nm.
