from intake valve timing control solenoid valve hole (A). End crank after checking.
 Check engine oil leakage by oil amount adhered to the waste inserted into the oil hole.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belts, idler pulley, and crankshaft pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
 Do not perform cranking without installing right engine mount bracket, right engine mount insu-
lator, and right torque rod.
 Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent the worker from injury from engine oil
and so as to prevent engine oil contamination.
 Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent engine oil from being splashed to
engine and vehicle. Especially, be careful not to apply engine oil to rubber parts of drive belts,
engine mounting insulator, etc. Wipe engine oil off immediately if it is splashed.
7. Perform the following inspection if engine oil does not come out from intake valve timing control solenoid
valve oil hole of the cylinder head.
 Remove oil filter (for intake valve timing control), and then clean it. Refer to EM-186, "
Component".
 Clean oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to LU-11,
"Lubrication Circuit".

 Measure the outer diameters (“d1”, “d2”) at two positions as shown.
 If reduction appears in places other than “B” range, regard it as
“d

 If it exceeds the limit (a large difference in dimensions), replace
main bearing cap bolt with a new one.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT OUTER DIAMETER
 Measure the outer diameter “d” at position as shown.
 If reduction appears in a position other than “d”, regard it as “d”.
 When “d” exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner), replace
connecting rod bolt with a new one.
CLOGGED OR DAMAGED OIL FILTER (FOR INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL)
 Make sure that there is no foreign material on the oil filter and
check it for clogging.
- Clean it if necessary.
 Check the oil filter for damage.
- Replace it if necessary.
FLYWHEEL DEFLECTION (M/T MODELS)
 Measure the deflection of flywheel contact surface to clutch with a
dial indicator (A).
 Measure the deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) diameter.
 If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.
 If a trace of burn or discoloration is found on the surface, repair it
with sandpaper.
CAUTION:
When measuring, keep magnetic fields (such as dial indicator
stand) away from signal plate of the rear end of crankshaft.
MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS)
CAUTION:
Never disassemble double mass flywheel.
Movement Amount of Thrust (Fore-and-Aft) Direction

< PRECAUTION >[K9K]
PRECAUTIONS
The system is very sensitive to contamination. The risks caused by the introduction of contamination are: Damage or destruction of the high pressure injection system and the engine,
 Seizing or leaking of a component.
All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. This means that no impurities (par-
ticles a few microns in size) get into the system during dismantling or into the circuits via the fuel unions.
The cleanliness principle must be applied from the filter to the injectors.
WHAT ARE THE SOURCES OF CONTAMINATION?
Contamination is caused by:
 Metal or plastic chips,
 Paint,
Fibres:
- Boxes,
- Brushes,
- Paper,
- Clothing,
- Cloths,
 Foreign bodies such as hair,
 Ambient air,
Etc.
IMPORTANT: It is not possible to clean the engine using a high pressure washer because of the risk of dam-
aging connections. In addition, moisture may collect in the connectors and create electrical connection mal-
functions.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE ANY WORK IS CARRIED OUT ON THE INJECTION SYS-
TEM
 Ensure that you have the plugs for the unions to be opened (bag of plugs sold at the Parts Stores - Nissan
part No.: 16609 00Q0B, Renault part No.: 77 01 476 857). Plugs are to be used once only. After use, they
must be thrown away (once used they are soiled and cleaning is not sufficient to make them reusable).
Unused plugs must be thrown away.
 Ensure that you have hermetically resealable plastic bags for storing removed parts. Stored parts will there-
fore be less subject to the risk of impurities. The bags must be used only once, and after use they must be
thrown away.
 Lint-free towelettes to be used for high pressure supply pump related service purpose. The use of a normal
cloth or paper for cleaning purposes is forbidden. These are not lint-free and may contaminate the fuel circuit
of the system. Each lint-free cloth should only be used once.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE OPENING THE FUEL CIRCUIT
 For each operation, use new thinner (used thinner contains impurities). Pour it into a clean receptacle.
 For each operation, use a clean brush which is in good condition (the brush must not shed its bristles).
 Use a brush and thinners to clean the connections to be opened.
 Blow compressed air over the cleaned parts (tools, cleaned the same way as the parts, connections and
injection system zone). Check that no bristles remain adhered.
 Wash your hands before and during the operation if necessary.
 When wearing leather protective gloves, cover these with latex gloves.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED DURING THE OPERATION
 As soon as the circuit is open, all openings must be plugged to prevent impurities from entering the system.
The plugs to be used are available from the Parts Stores - Nissan part No.: 16609 00Q0B, Renault part No.:
77 01 476 857. They must not, under any circumstances, be reused.
 Close the hermetically sealed bag, even if it has to be reopened shortly afterwards. Ambient air carries con-
tamination.
 All components of the injection system that are removed must be stored in a hermetically sealed plastic bag
once the plugs have been inserted.
 The use of a brush, thinner, bellows, sponge or normal cloth is strictly forbidden once the circuit has been
opened. These items are likely to allow impurities to enter the system.
 A new component replacing an old one must not be removed from its packaging until it is to be fitted to the
vehicle.

CAUTION:
 Be sure to read “Precautions for Diesel Equipment”. Refer to EM-253, "
Precaution for Diesel Equip-
ment".
 Wait until the fuel temperature drops before carrying out any work.
 Order the special high pressure injection circuit plug kit.
 Never open an injector. If you open an injector by mistake, you will have to change it.
This is because of the manufacturing and installation tolerances and because there is a risk of con-
taminating the inside of the injector.
 The rod filter of the injector must not be removed.
NOTE:
It is possible to replace a single injection tube.
1. Disconnect the battery.
2. Remove the air duct (inlet). Refer to EM-269, "
Exploded View".
3. Remove engine cover. Refer to EM-270, "
