3. Engine

1049 cc engine - general
1 This engine is of overhead camshaft design,
using shims for valve clearance adjustment. The
crankshaft is supported in five main bearings,
the centre one incorporating the thrust washers
which control crankshaft endfloat.
2 An auxiliary shaft, driven by the toothed
camshaft belt, is used to drive the distributor and
the fuel pump. 3 Most major engine components
can be removed while the engine is in the car,
but operations on the crankshaft, main bearings
and flywheel can only be carried out after the
engine has been removed.
4 Engine removal and subsequent dismantling
follows closely the information given for the
overhead valve engine in Chapter 1, but the
following sequence for complete engine
dismantling is recommended:
(a) Engine ancillaries (alternator, fuel pump, distributor)
(b) Timing belt cover
(c) Water pump
(d) Timing belt tensioner and belt
(e) Manifolds
(f) Cylinder head complete with camshaft
(g) Crankshaft pulley
(h) Auxiliary shaft sprocket
(i) Sump
(j) Oil pump and auxiliary shaft
(k) Connecting rods and pistons
(l) Flywheel and crankshaft oil seal carriers
(m) Crankshaft and main bearings

5 If the cylinder head is to be dismantled, before

withdrawing the camshaft, have a suitably divided
container ready so that the valve clearance
adjusting shims can be extracted and kept in strict
originally installed order together with their
appropriate valves, springs etc.
6 All engine parts must be thoroughly cleaned
and examined as explained in Chapter 1. Where
required, all defective parts should be renewed
before reassembly starts.
Crankshaft – refitting
7 Fit the main bearing shells to their seats in the
crankcase after making sure that both shells and
seats are spotlessly clean and dry (photos).
8 With a light smear of grease, fit the two half
thrust washers each side of the centre bearing
with the oil grooves in each washer facing away
from the bearing shell (photo).
9 Using clean engine oil lubricate the bearing
shells and crankshaft main bearing journals
(photo).
10 Carefully lower the crankshaft into its bearings
in the crankcase after making sure that it is the
right way round. Spin the shaft to distribute the o il
(photo).
11 Fit the clean and dry bearing shells to the main
bearing caps. Oil the bearing face and fit the
bearing caps to the crankcase. Make sure that
each cap is fitted to its own location by checking
the groove marks in the base, and that each cap
is the right way round. This is achieved when the
axial locating tags in each half bearing shell butt
on the same side (photos).



3.7A Thoroughly clean the bearing shells and seats
before
assembly 3.7B Note that central bearing shell has no oil gro ove but all
shell are axially located by an offset tag
