CAUTION!
Part numbers are listed for reference only. Always check with your
Parts department for the latest information.
Note:
Short blocks are supplied without a bushing in the crankshaft. For
vehicles with automatic transmission, tap the bushing into place before
installing the drive plate. - Mark bolt hole pattern of drive plate and washers -1- and -2- relative to
crankshaft. Mark position of shim in front and shim behind drive plate.
- Install drive plate with 3.0 mm shim -1- (Part no. 054 105 301) or 4.0
mm shim -1- (Part no. 054 105 202), and spacer -2- (Part no. 035 105
303A).

Note:
Before installing the engine, make sure that the engine-to-transmission
dowel sleeves are installed in the cylinder block flange. - Check clearance -a- between drive plate and cylinder block in three
places and calculate average value.
Dimension -a-:
Transmission 01V: 18.1-19.7 mm (0.713-0.776 in.)
- If necessary, install other shims to achieve correct clearance
dimension.
Tightening torque: 60 Nm (44 ft lb) plus 1/4-turn (90 )

Crankshaft axial and radial clearance,
checking
Orientation of crankshaft bearing caps
CAUTION!
Bearing shells must be reinstalled in their original location and
orientation. Always label the bearing shells according to their
installed position before removing. NEVER interchange used bearing
shells.
Checking axial clearance
Main bearing cap -1- is at the oil pump end (front).Main bearing cap -4- is at the flywheel end (rear).
- Install dial indicator with holder VW 387 on oil pump and set indicator
against crankshaft counterweight.
- Press crankshaft against dial indicator by hand.
- Set dial gauge to zero.
- Press crankshaft away from dial indicator and read gauge.
Specifications:
New: 0.07-0.23 mm (0.0027-0.0091 in.)
Wear limit: 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.)

Checking radial clearance
Note:
Radial clearance is measured using Plastigage
.
Plastigage type
Color
Measuring range
PG-1 Green 0.025 - 0.076 mm
PR-1 Red 0.050 - 0.150 mm
- Remove crankshaft bearing cap.
- Clean bearing shell and crankshaft journal.
CAUTION!
Do NOT turn the crankshaft or allow it to rotate during the
measurement with Plastigage in place. -
Place Plastigage on crankshaft journal over entire width of bearing,
or in bearing shell (arrow). - Install crankshaft bearing cap with bearing shell and new bolts.
-
Tighten to 60 Nm (44 ft lb) plus1/2-turn 180 .
