. LITRE DIESEL ENGINE .. ... ... 3 . Locate the crankshaft in position on the upper bearing halves in the crankcase and wipe any oil i n oil. Place a piece of ‘Plastigauge’ across the lower Fit the cap and tighten to the correct torque. Remove the cap and bearing and using the scale supplied with t h e ‘Plastigauge’ measure the i t s widest point. The graduation that most closely corresponds with width of the ‘Plastigauge’ indicates the bearing correct clearance with new or overhauled components is included in “General specification data” section. If new bearings are being fitted use from the journals or bearings. , Adjust crankshaft end-float 5. Place the crankshaft in position in the crankcase and mount a dial test indicator to read-off the end of the crankshaft. A feeler gauge used instead of an indicator. 6. Determine the end-float by moving the crankshaft away from t h e indicator and zero the dial. Move the crankshaft i n the opposite direction and note the indicator reading. Alternatively measure the clearance with a feeler gauge. The end-float should be to (0.002 to 0.006 in). 7. If adjustment is required substitute with oversize thrust washers. Variation of thrust washer of crankshaft journal must not exceed (0.003 in) to ensure t h a t the crankshaft remains centralised. 5 4. the crankshaft and standard size engine oil and fit the appropriate bearing caps and lower shells to the crankcase with the exception of thrust both sides of centre main saddle with grooves towards the number five main bearing. Ensure that the caps o v e r dowels. Using new and washers evenly tighten to the correct torque rear main hearing cap 9. Ensure that number five main bearing cap is and free from old cork seal material. 270304 to the crankcase, as illustrated, and that they are 75 |
