Shims of the following thicknesses (mm) are avai-
lable from the Parts Department:
2.80; 2.85; 2.90;
2.95.
Refit the connecting rod shells and tighten the
nuts to a torque value of
4.2 daN.m.
Check:
- the end float of the connecting rods,
- that the assembly is able to rotate properly. Fit the crankshaft and the end float shims.
Lubricate the crankpins and the main bearing
journals with engine oil.
Refit the crankshaft bearing shells.
Apply a thin layer of
RHODORSEAL 5661 on bea-
ring
N°
1 zone (K) and tighten the bolts to
2.5 daN.m , then angle tighten to
43°

± 6°.
Check the end floatof the crankshaft, which
should be between:
-
0.045 and 0.852 mmwith wear,
-
0.045 and 0.252 mmwithout wear.

Fit:
- the oil pump, checking that the centring dowls
are present, and tighten to a torque value of
2.5 daN.m,
- the two sprockets and chain of the oil pump,
and tighten the three bolts mounting the
sprocket to the hub to
1 daN.m,
- the crankshaft end cover, sealing it with
Loctite
518.
The bead (H) should be
0.6 to 1 mm wide and
should be applied as shown in the diagram be-
low. - the crankshaft seal (bearing No.1), using tool
Mot. 1129-01; this tool is designed to ensure an
offset seal bearing surface. Lubricate the lip
and the outside of the seal.

Method of tightening the cylinder head
90775S
Preseating of the gasket:
Initial tightening to
2 daN, followed by angula
r
tightening to
97°
± 2° in the recommended or-
der:
- tighten bolts
1-2,
- tighten bolts
3-4-5-6,
- tighten bolts
7-8-9-10.
Seatin
g of the gasket:
Wait
3 minutes (settling time).
Ti
ghtening:
- Slacken bolts
1-2.
Retighten bolts
1-2 to
2 daN.m, then angle
tighten to
97
° ±
2°.
- Slacken bolts
3-4-5-6.
Retighten bolts
3-4-5-6 to
2 daN.m, then angle
tighten to
97
° ±
2°.
- Slacken bolts
7-8-9-10.
Retighten bolts
7-8-9-10 to
2 daN.m, then angle
tighten to
97
° ±
2°.
There is no cylinder head retightening operation.Refit the rocker shaft, positioning the mark (1) on
the timing side and the bolts (A) at (B).
92063R
NOTE :
There are two sizes of bolts (A) :
M8×
100
and M8×
125.
Refit:
- the rocker shaft mounting bolts (2), tightening
them to a torque of
2.3 daN.m and not forge
t-
ting to lubricate the threads and underneath
the bolt heads with engine oil,
- the cylinder head cover without tightening i
t
in order to facilitate the setting of the timing,
- the crankshaft sprocket.
