GENERAL DATA

Scheme 172

Scheme 172: ENGINE MANUFACTURE NUMBER, ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER AND TYPE

The engine serial number and type are stamped on the left side of the cylinder block at the top of the mounting for the water pump.

There is also a decal on the timing casing with the engine type, manufacturing number, and serial number.

Scheme 173

Scheme 173: CLASSIFICATION OF MAIN BEARINGS

The marking is stamped into the engine block and crankshaft. The classification marking is in the engine block above the oil cooler and crankshaft. The classification shall be read from the digit 1 to 6. The first letter after the digit 1 corresponds to the classification of main bearing 1. The bearing positions are numbered starting at the engine's leading edge.
