- the distributor with the wiring loom,
- the fuel pump (if fitted) with new seals,
- the thermostat support, making it tight 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 seal, using mounting bush
Mot. 1127-01;
this tool is designed to obtain an offset seat fo
r
the seal,

Lubricate the camshaft.
Refit the camshaft and its flange.
Check:
- the end play which should be between
0.06 and
0.015 mm; if this is not the case, the flange o
r
the camshaft are to blame,
92102-1R
- the camshaft sprocket, immobilising it with tool
Mot. 799-01, and tighten the bolt to a torque
value of
4.5 daN.m (lubricate the thread an
d
underneath the bolt head).

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.
92314S MOUNTING THE BEARING SHELLS
The connecting rod bearing shells are identical.
The crankshaft bearing shells are grooved on the
cylinder block side.
92315R
The upper shell of bearing
No. 5 is a special one
and is also grooved.

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.

the bearin
g surface.

Refit the sump and tighten to a torque value of
1 daN.m.
NOTE : A tight seal for the sump can only be ob-
tained using the special seal supplied by the afte
r-
sales service, except for engine
E7J 764 in which a
tight seal is achieved by using
RHODOR-SEAL
5661. Bead (D) should be
3 mm wide.
Do not forget to replace the two "half-moon"
seals at (A) with new ones.
Coat the flywheel bearing surface on the cranks-
haft with
AUTOFORM Loctite.
Fit the flywheel or the converter plate and immo-
bilise it with the toothed segment
Mot. 582-01.
Apply a drop of
FRENETANCH Loctite to the
bolts and tighten them to
5 - 5.5 daN.m.
Centre the clutch disc and secure the mechanism.
92068R
Refit the water pump, 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 below.
REFITTING THE CYLINDER HEAD
Remove the liner tool
Mot. 588.
Clean the gasket surfaces of the cylinder bloc
k
and the cylinder head.
Refit the cylinder head centring dowl.
The new cylinder head gasket.
The cylinder head (lubricate the threads and
underneath the bolt heads).
All the cylinder head bolts must be replaced
systematically after any removal.

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.
