Scheme 122

Scheme 122: DESCRIPTION

The engine block (1) is made from cast iron. The crankshaft is supported by five main bearings. The thrust bearings are attached to the center upper main bearing. The cylinder block has four piston cooling jets located under the main bearing shells. The cylinders are formed directly into the engine block and are divided into three size categories. Special channels formed in the crankcase walls allow the passage of coolant and lubrication oil. A knock sensor is located on the left side of the block.

The bedplate (2) is made from die-cast aluminum alloy and has cast iron cast-in bearing caps. The supports and main bearing caps are machined while assembled together with the engine block. Bolts and locating dowels are used to assure precision assembly of the bedplate and engine block. There is a bead of sealant between the bedplate and engine block to prevent oil leaks.

The function of the bedplate is to

  1. form the load carrying structure with the engine block
  2. support the crankshaft
  3. allow return of the engine lubrication oil to the pan
  4. support the engine oil pan

Scheme 124

Scheme 124

Scheme 125

Scheme 125
  1. Remove the oil film from surface to be checked. Plastigage is soluble in oil.
  2. Place a piece of Plastigage (1) across the entire width of the journal (In addition, suspected areas can be checked by placing the Plastigage in the suspected area). Plastigage must not crumble in use. If brittle, obtain fresh stock.
  3. Torque the bearing cap bolts of the bearing being checked to the proper specification. Refer to «TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-646215-S01818345202014072800000) . NOTE: DO NOT rotate the crankshaft. Plastigage will smear, causing inaccurate results. NOTE: Typical connecting rod cap shown in illustration.
  4. Remove the bearing cap and compare the width of the flattened Plastigage (2) with the scale provided on the package (1). Locate the band closest to the same width. This band shows the amount of clearance. Differences in readings between the ends indicate the amount of taper present or the possibility of foreign material trapped under the bearing insert.
  5. Record all readings taken. Compare clearance measurements to. Refer to «ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-646215-S03916579012014072800000) . NOTE: Typical connecting rod journal shown in illustration. NOTE: Plastigage is available in a variety of clearance ranges. Use the most appropriate range for the specifications you are checking. Plastigage generally is accompanied by two scales. One scale is in inches, the other is a metric scale.
  6. Install the proper bearings to achieve the specified bearing clearances.
  7. Repeat the Plastigage measurement to verify your bearing selection prior to final assembly.

Scheme 126: CYLINDER BORE DEGLAZING

Before deglazing, mask the crankcase area to keep abrasive materials from entering the engine lower end. Tape off the water jacket and any openings to the oil circuit to prevent abrasive material from entering the coolant and oil circuits.

CAUTIONDO NOT use rigid type hones to remove cylinder wall glaze.
  1. Select an appropriate size flexible ball hone.
  2. Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done if the cylinder bore is straight and round. About 20-60 strokes, depending on the condition of the cylinder bore, will be sufficient to provide a satisfactory surface. Use a light honing oil, available from major oil distributors. CAUTION: DO NOT use engine or transmission oil, mineral spirits, or kerosene.
  3. Deglazing should be done by moving the hone up and down fast enough to get a crosshatch pattern. The hone marks should intersect at 30° to 60° inclusive angle for proper seating of rings.
  4. A controlled hone motor speed between 200 and 300 RPM is necessary to obtain the proper crosshatch angle (1). The number of up and down strokes per minute can be regulated to get the desired 30° to 60° inclusive angle (2). Faster up and down strokes increase the crosshatch angle.
  5. After deglazing, it is necessary that the block be cleaned to remove all traces of abrasive. Use a brush to wash parts with a solution of hot water and detergent. Dry parts thoroughly. Use a clean, white, lint-free cloth to check that the bore is clean. Oil the bores after cleaning to prevent rusting. Upon completion, perform a visual inspection of the cylinder block passages to inspect for abrasive debris. If any debris is found, repeat the cleaning process. NOTE: Cylinder bore diameter should not increase more than 20 microns during deglazing process from original nominal bore diameter, if the maximum of 20 microns is exceeded, the cylinder block must be replaced. If deglazing the cylinder bore cannot remove the light scratches and scuffs the cylinder block should be replaced.

  10. Measure the inside diameter of the cylinder bore at three levels below the top of the bore (4). Start at the top of the bore, perpendicular (across or at 90 degrees) to the axis of the crankshaft at point A (1).
  11. Repeat the measurement near the middle of the bore, then repeat the measurement near the bottom of the bore.
  12. Determine taper by subtracting the smaller diameter from the larger diameter.
  13. Rotate measuring device 90° to point B (1) and repeat the three measurements. Verify that the maximum taper is within specifications. Refer to «ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-646215-S03916579012014072800000) .
  14. Determine out-of-roundness by comparing the difference between A and B at each of the three levels. Verify that the maximum out of round is within specifications. Refer to «ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-646215-S03916579012014072800000) .
  15. If cylinder bore taper and out-of-roundness are within specification, the cylinder bore can be honed. Refer to «ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-646215-S03916579012014072800000) . If the cylinder bore taper or out-of-round condition exceeds the maximum limits, the cylinder block must be replaced.

Scheme 145

Scheme 145: DESCRIPTION
CAUTIONDo not use a metal stamp to mark connecting rods as damage may result, instead use ink or a scratch awl.

The pistons are a lightweight design with low tension piston rings for improved fuel economy. The pistons are made of a high strength silicon aluminum alloy and the piston skirt has a Moly® coating. The piston pin is a press fit into the rod. The connecting rod is forged steel with a bolted cracked cap design. The connecting rod bolts are not reusable. Pistons are available in three different diameters with grade markings for each bore indicated on the side of the cylinder block. The piston rings have a dot or a mark that must face the top of the piston. The pistons have an arrow stamped on the crown for assembly. Piston, pins and rods are only available as an assembly.

Scheme 146

Scheme 146: PISTON FITTING

The pistons are "select fit" to achieve proper oil clearance. Engine block cylinder bore diameter grade markings are stamped into the right side of the engine block. These marks are read from front to rear, corresponding with cylinder number 1, 2, 3, 4.

Engine block cylinder bore diameter grade markings correspond to specific cylinder bore diameters. The chart below identifies the three engine block grade markings and their associated cylinder bore diameters.

Engine Block MarkingCylinder Bore Size mm (in.)

Scheme 148

Scheme 148

Note. Typical coated piston shown in illustration.

The coated pistons are serviced with the piston pin and connecting rod pre-assembled. The coating material (1 and 2) is applied to the piston after the final piston machining process. Piston installation into the cylinder bore requires slightly more pressure than that required for non-coated pistons. The bonded coating on the piston will give the appearance of a line-to-line fit with the cylinder bore.

Scheme 163

Scheme 163: OPERATION

Oil flows from the oil pump housing through the oil pump/oil filter housing interface (1) and into the oil filter housing. Within the oil filter housing the oil first travels through the oil cooler and then through the oil filter. After the oil is filtered and cooled it travels back to the oil pump housing through the oil pump/oil filter housing interface (1) and to the main engine oil gallery. Removing the oil filter cap from the housing allows oil to drain from the oil filter cavity into to the crankcase (3).

Engine coolant flows from the thermostat housing into the oil filter housing (4) and into the oil cooler. The coolant flows through the oil cooler and exits the housing (2) where it is returned to the water pump inlet.

Scheme 174: DESCRIPTION

The gerotor type engine oil pump is mounted to the front of the engine as part of the oil pump housing. The oil pump is directly coupled to the crankshaft.

The oil pump housing provides mounting points for the following components

  1. Oil pick-up tube
  2. Front crankshaft oil seal
  3. Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor
  4. Oil pressure switch

The oil pump housing is also coupled to the oil filter housing where the pressurized oil is filtered and cooled.

Scheme 175

Scheme 175: OPERATION

Note. Pump cover removed for clarity.

The gerotor type engine oil pump is part of the oil pump housing. The oil pump is directly coupled to the crankshaft.

Engine oil is drawn up from the sump through the oil pick-up tube (1). An internal mechanical plunger (2) and spring type pressure relief valve diverts excess oil from the pump outlet back to the pump inlet. The pressure controlled oil flows through the oil pump/oil filter housing interface (3) and into the oil filter housing. After the oil is filtered and cooled it travels back to the oil pump housing through the oil pump/oil filter housing interface (4) where it is routed to the main engine oil gallery (5).

The gerotor pump is not to be disassembled. The gerotor pump is a non-serviceable component of the oil pump housing and is replaced as a complete assembly. The pressure relief valve is serviceable and can be removed and inspected.
