Tightening torque

For tightening torques not in the text, see Tightening torque .

Cleaning

Ensure that the all components are completely clean.

Blow clean the oil ducts in the block, intermediate section and oil pan.

Classification of main bearings

Wipe clean the bearing recesses in the block and the intermediate section.

Check that the components are clean and undamaged.

Check the classification of the block and crankshaft.

The classification marking is at the rear edge of the block and the crankshaft. The classification is read from digits 1 to 7. The first letter after digit 1 is the classification of main bearing 1. The bearing positions are numbered starting at the front of the engine.

C largeRed thinRed thinRed thinYellow mediumYellow mediumYellow medium

Install the main bearings in the cylinder block and the intermediate section. See the table.

The axial bearing is positioned at bearing recess 5.

For example: The marking on the block at bearing recess 1 is B. The marking on the crankshaft at the corresponding bearing recess is C.

Therefore the bearing in the block is marked red and the bearing in the intermediate section is marked yellow.

Note. The thickest of the bearing caps must always be installed in the intermediate section. This is keep the center line as straight as possible.

The intermediate section

Wipe the surfaces dry.

Apply liquid gasket 11 61 059 to the intermediate section. The surface must be completely covered without any excess. Use roller 9512767

Thoroughly lubricate all the bearing shells and the surface of the axial bearing.

Note. Use new M10 screws.

Tighten the screws in the following order

1. All M10 screws 20 Nm
2. All M10 screws 45 Nm
3. All M8 screws 24 Nm
4. All M7 screws 17 Nm
5. Angle-tighten all M10 screws 90°

Scheme 433

Scheme 433

Use piston ring pliers.

Turn the piston rings so that the openings are offset as shown in the illustration.

A = Compression ring. The text on the piston ring must be upwards.

B = Scraper ring. Chamfered edge must face downwards.

C = Oil ring. Three sections, identical on all sides.

CAUTIONEnsure that the piston rings can be turned easily.

Note. Incorrect positioning increases oil consumption.

Assembling pistons and connecting rods

Scheme 434

Scheme 434

Install both the snap rings on the piston pin. Check that the snap rings are positioned correctly in the piston.

Wipe clean around the bearing recess in the connecting rod and the cap.

Install the bearing shells.

If new bearing shells are used, these must be checked for color coding.

Note. The bearing shell with a black color coding on the side must be installed in the connecting rod.

CAUTIONIf reusing the bearing shells, they must be installed in the same position as before.

Installing the pistons in the cylinder bores

Use a cylinder ring compressor.

Lubricate the cylinder bore, the pistons and the bearing shells.

Turn the crankshaft so that the connecting rod pin is at bottom dead center (BDC) for the cylinder the piston is to be inserted in.

Ensure that the engine is in a position where the cylinder bore forms as vertical a line as possible.

Note. The arrow on top of the piston must point forwards. Ensure that the classifications correspond

Carefully press or tap the piston down (using the shaft of a hammer or similar).

When the piston has released from the piston ring compressor, remove it and press the piston down until the connecting rod reaches the connecting rod pin.

Tightening the connecting rod cover

Turn the engine 180° in the stand.

Install the cover. Check that any markings correspond.

Lubricate and install new seals. Tighten in two stages

1. 20 Nm .

2. Angle-tighten 90° .
