Refit:
- the oil pump onto the engine and tighten it to
a torque of 0.9 daN.m,
- the new seal onto the crankshaft output wi-
thout damaging it when passing the timing
sprocket drive groove.
Position it with the aid of tool Mot. 1355..

Refit the strainer with a new O-ring.
Clean the sealing surfaces (cylinder block, sump).
Refit the sump.
Tighten the bolts to a torque of 1 daN.m.
Refit:
- the timing belt (see method described in
section 11 "Timing belt"),
- the new alternator and power assisted stee-
ring pump belts (see tension values in section
07 "Accessories belt tension"). D7F engine

REFITTING
Line up the markings of the timing belt with
those of the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets.

PROCEDURE FOR TENSIONING TIMING BELT
Remove pin Mot. 1054.
Fit the spacer (1) of tool Mot. 1386 and tighten
the crankshaft sprocket bolt.
10881R
a)Fit tool Mot. 1273 and, using tool
Mot. 1135-01, turn the tension wheel anti-
clockwise until the value of 20 US is obtained
(turn the sensor wheel until it is tight, as indi-
cated by three clicks).
10479R1
IMPORTANT: The camshaft sprocket bears five
markings, of which only the rectangular one on
the surface of one of the teeth represents TDC;
the other markings are intended as an aid for ad-
justing the valve rockers.

Tighten the tension wheel nut.
Turn the engine at least twice (never in the op-
posite direction to normal operation).
Insert the pin in the engine at TDC, then remove
the pin .
Check that the timing is correct on the crankshaft
and camshaft side.
Slacken the tension wheel nut and turn it slightly
clockwise using tool Mot. 1135-01 until the two
holes of the tension wheel are lined up
horizontally.
Retighten the tension wheel nut.
b)Turn the engine at least twice (never in the
opposite direction to normal operation).
Insert the pin in the engine at
TDC then re-
move the pin.
Using tool Mot. 1386, apply a pretensioning
torque of 1 daN.m between the crankshaft
sprocket and the water pump.
Fit tool Mot. 1273 and note the tension measure-
ment, which should be 20±
3 US (fitting tension),
or simply adjust by varying the position of the
tension wheel using Mot. 1135-01 and repeat the
tensioning process in (b).
Tighten the tension wheel nut to a torque of
5 daN.m.
IMPORTANT
Following each variation of the tension wheel
position, turn the engine at least twice before
proceeding to measure the tension .
Apply the pretensioning of 1 daN.m which allows
all belt play to be eliminated.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Fit the suspended engine mounting .

Cylinder head gasket

92076S
CLEANING
It is very important not to scratch the gasket faces
of the aluminium components.
Use the Décapjoint product to dissolve any part of
the gasket which remains attached.
Apply the product to the parts to be cleaned; wait
about ten minutes, then remove it using a
wooden spatula.
Wear gloves whilst carrying out this operation.
Care must be taken whilst carrying out this ope-
ration in order to avoid any foreign bodies ente-
ring the oilways supplying oil under pressure to
the camshaft (oilways are located both in the cy-
linder block and the cylinder head).
Failure to follow to this advice could lead to the
blocking of the jets and thus cause rapid deterio-
ration of the cams and tappets.
CHECKING THE GASKET FACE
Check for gasket face bow using a straight edge
and a set of shims .
Maximum deformation : 0.05 mm.
No regrinding of the cylinder head is permitted.
REFITTING
The cylinder head is centred by two dowels at the
rear of the engine.
REMINDER: in order to obtain the correct tighte-
ning of the bolts, use a syringe to remove any oil
which may have entered the cylinder head moun-
ting bolt holes .
Grease the threads and under the bolt heads with
engine oil.
Adjustment of the valve rockers and tightening
of the cylinder head should be carried out when
the engine is cold. D7F Engine

ADJUSTMENT OF VALVE ROCKERS (IF
NECESSARY)
Partly refit the suspended engine mounting ti-
ming cover on the engine using two bolts.
Bring the engine to TDC , cylinder n. 1 in ignition
phase .
Turn the crankshaft clockwise (viewed from the
timing side ) to reach the first reference mark.

Remove the tool retaining the engine on the sub-
frame, Mot. 1379.
NOTE : tightening the inlet manifold :
- progressively hand tighten the six nuts until
the inlet manifold comes into contact with the
cylinder head, then tighten them to a torque
of 1.5 daN.m,
- fit the upper bolts and tighten them to a tor-
que of 0.9 daN.m.
Fill and bleed the cooling circuit.
Adjust the accelerator cable.
