Procedures
6Adjusting valve clearance adjustment
⚠ Risk of injury if auxiliary tool not used
Tools: Turning gear 100 320, Turning gear 100 330, Feeler gauge
- Turn engine until valves of cylinder No. 1 overlap.
- Turn engine further by one complete revolution (360°).
- Adjust valve clearance at respective cylinder with feeler gauge (inlet 0.3 mm, exhaust 0.5 mm).
- Tighten locknut with 20 ± 2 Nm and recheck with feeler gauge.
- Position gasket and fit cylinder head cover; tighten bolts to 9 ± 1 Nm.
Determining shim thickness for Bosch injection pump replacement adjustment
Tools: Measuring device 100 780 / 100 860 / 100 840
- Read off EP code for cylinder from nameplate column 'EP'.
- Take corrected injection pump installation dimension (EK) from table according to EP code.
- Take code for injection pump length (A) from new injection pump.
- Take standard dimension (L0) from table 1.
- Determine theoretical shim thickness Ts = EK - (L0 + A/100).
- Select shim thickness Ss according to table 2.
Checking compression pressure diagnostic
Tools: Compression tester 8005, Torx tool kit 8189, Connector 100 110
- Injectors have been removed, valve clearance checked.
- Insert connector with new special seal.
- Fit clamping pad and tighten bolt.
- Connect compression tester and turn engine with starter.
- Compare readings of all cylinders; if deviation exceeds 15%, dismantle affected cylinder unit.
Testing and adjusting injector opening pressure maintenance
⚠ Beware of injection nozzle fuel jet; fuel penetrates deeply into skin and may cause blood poisoning.
Tools: Nozzle tester 8008, Long socket SW15 8012, Assembly tool 110 110
- Connect injector to nozzle tester.
- Slowly press down lever; the pressure at which gauge pointer stops or drops is opening pressure.
- Unscrew cap nut and remove all parts to adjust pressure.
- Select appropriate shim - thicker shim gives higher opening pressure.
- Tighten cap nut 40 - 50 Nm and recheck on nozzle tester.
Dismantling engine repair
⚠ Drain and catch remaining oil and coolant and dispose of in accordance with anti-pollution regulations.
Tools: Torx tool kit 8189, Engine assembly stand 6067/6066, Extractor for injector 110 030, Filter cartridges 170 050
- Mount angled clamping plate and clamp engine in swivelling assembly stand.
- Drain and catch oil and coolant.
- Remove alternator, loosen fuel pump, remove V-belt.
- Remove coolant pipe, breather pipe, intake hose.
- Remove turbocharger, starter, governor, filters.
- Remove cylinder head cover, injection lines, injectors.
- Remove cylinder head, injection pumps, oil pan, pistons.
- Take out crankshaft, balancing shafts, camshaft, tappets and oil spray nozzles.
Reassembling engine crankshaft bearings repair
Tools: Internal dial gauge
- Insert bearing shells in main bearing caps.
- Place half thrust rings on thrust bearing cap, gauge and record width (dimension b).
- Determine end float = dimension a - dimension b.
- Mark crankshaft and camshaft and introduce crankshaft with marks in line.
- Mount bearing caps per numbering; cap No. 1 at flywheel end.
- Tighten main bearing bolts: initial 30 Nm (1012) / 50 Nm (1013), 60°, 60°.
