VALVETRAIN ASSEMBLY OVERVIEW

CAUTIONRisk of damaging valves and piston heads after working on valvetrain. The motor must not be started for about 30 minutes after installing camshafts because the hydraulic equalization elements must seat themselves. To ensure valves do not strike pistons when starting, carefully rotate engine at least 2 full revolutions.

Note. Cylinder heads with cracks between the valve seats, or between the valve seat and the spark plug threads, can continue to be used without reducing the service life, as long as the cracks have a width of max. 0.3 mm, or only the first 4 threads of the spark plug threads are cracked.

Note. Cylinder head for cylinder bank 2 (left) is shown in illustration.

WARNINGRisk of injury if exhaust valves with sodium filling are disposed of improperly. Cut exhaust valve with sodium filling into 2 parts with a metal saw between shaft center and valve plate. While doing this, do not come into contact with water. Throw at the most 10 such sawed exhaust valves in a bucket filled with water and step back immediately. When there is contact with water, a sudden chemical reaction occurs which burns the sodium filling. The treated parts may then be discarded through conventional disposal channels.

CAUTIONThe sealing surfaces could be damaged. Carefully remove sealant residue from cylinder head and cylinder block. Make sure that no long scrapes or scratches result. Risk of damaging cylinder block. There must be no oil or coolant in the blind holes for the cylinder head bolts in the cylinder block. Risk of cylinder head seal leaking. Carefully remove all grinding and sanding residue. Only unpack new cylinder head gasket immediately prior to installation. To prevent cylinder head seal silicone layer and recessed area from being damaged, always handle seal extremely carefully. Risk of damaging open valves. If a replacement cylinder is installed, only remove plastic base right before cylinder head is installed to protect open valves. Risk of damaging valves and piston heads after working on valvetrain. To ensure valves do not strike pistons when starting, carefully rotate engine at least 2 full revolutions.

Note. Replace bolts which have been tightened to specifications. Replace self-locking nuts, sealing rings, seals and O-rings. Note different sealant for cylinder head sealing surfaces and bolts. If a replacement cylinder is installed, the contact surfaces between the hydraulic adjusting elements, roller rocker levers and cam running surfaces must be lubricated before installing the cylinder head cover. Secure all hose connections with hose clamps appropriate for the model. The engine oil and coolant must be changed if the cylinder head or cylinder head seal are replaced.
