GENERAL FITTING REMINDERS
7
INFORMATION COTTER PINS
1.Fit new cotter pins throughout when replacing
any unit.
2.Always fit cotter pins where cotter pins were
originally used. Do not substitute spring
washers: there is always a good reason for the
use of a cotter pin.
3.All cotter pins should be fitted as shown unless
otherwise stated.
NUTS
1.When tightening a slotted or castellated nut
never loosen it to insert cotter pin or locking wire
except in those recommended cases where this
forms part of an adjustment. If difficulty is
experienced, alternative washers or nuts should
be selected, or washer thickness reduced.
2.Where self-locking nuts have been removed it is
advisable to replace them with new ones of the
same type.
NOTE: Where bearing pre-load is involved
nuts should be tightened in accordance
with special instructions.
LOCKING WIRE
1.Fit new locking wire of the correct type for all
assemblies incorporating it.
2.Arrange wire so that its tension tends to tighten
the bolt heads, or nuts, to which it is fitted.SCREW THREADS
1.Both UNF and Metric threads to ISO standards
are used. See below for thread identification.
2.Damaged threads must always be discarded.
Cleaning up threads with a die or tap impairs the
strength and closeness of fit of the threads and
is not recommended.
3.Always ensure that replacement bolts are at
least equal in strength to those replaced.
4.Do not allow oil, grease or jointing compound to
enter blind threaded holes. The hydraulic action
on screwing in the bolt or stud could split the
housing.
5.Always tighten a nut or bolt to the recommended
torque value. Damaged or corroded threads can
affect the torque reading.
6.To check or re-tighten a bolt or screw to a
specified torque value first loosen a quarter of a
turn, then re-tighten to the correct value.
7.Oil thread lightly before tightening to ensure a
free running thread, except in the case of
threads treated with sealant/lubricant, and
self-locking nuts.
UNIFIED THREAD IDENTIFICATION
1. Bolts
A circular recess is stamped in the upper surface
of the bolt head.
2. Nuts
A continuous line of circles is indented on one of
the flats of the hexagon, parallel to the axis of
the nut.
3. Studs, Brake Rods, etc.
The component is reduced to the core diameter
for a short length at its extremity.

MAINTENANCE SEATS AND SEAT BELTS
1.Check seat frames are secured to floor and
show no signs of movement.
2.Check operation of seat slide and tilt
mechanisms, ensuring there is no excessive
play between seat cushion and seat back.
3.Check tightness of accessible seat fixings.
4.Fully extract seat belt and allow it to return under
its own recoil mechanism.
5.Check entire length of seat belt webbing for
signs of fraying or damage. Repeat for all belts.
6.Check security of seat belt upper mountings.
7.Check security of seat belt buckle mountings.
8.Connect each belt to the correct buckle, check
seat belt buckle and tongue are secure. Release
seat belt buckle and check for correct operation.
9.Check tightness of accessible seat belt
mountingsLAMPS, HORNS AND WARNING INDICATORS
1.Switch on side, head and tail lights and check
operation.
2.Check headlamp dim/dip operation.
3.Check headlamp levelling operation.
4.Check turn signals and hazard warning lights
operation.
5.Press brake pedal and check operation of brake
lights.
6.Check all exterior lamp lenses for clarity and
condition. Pay particular attention to head lamp
lenses for signs of stone chips or damage.
7.Check horn for loud clear sound.
8.Check operation of all instrument pack warning
and indicator lights.
9.Check for correct operation of interior courtesy
lights.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Connecting rods
1.Small-end oil holes
2.Small-end bushing3.Connecting rod
4.Serrated fracture
The connecting rods are machined, H-section steel forgings which feature a fracture-split at the big-end between
the connecting rod and the bearing cap. The connecting rod features a serrated fracture across the big-end at
right angles to the length of the connecting rod, this forms a unique mating surface between the connecting rod
and the fractured end which is used as the big-end cap. The use of a fracture split in the big-end of the connecting
rod ensures a perfect match for assembly on the crankshaft bearing journals and provides the connecting rod with
strong resistance to lateral movement.
The end-cap fixing bolts are offset to ensure that the cap is fitted to the connecting rod in the correct orientation. If
the end-cap is fitted incorrectly and the end-cap bolts tightened, the connecting rod must be replaced, since the
matching serrations will have been damaged.
The big-end bearing shells are plain split halves without location tags. On EU2 vehicles the two halves of the
bearing shells are of different construction. The upper half bearing shell fitted to the connecting rod is treated
using the sputtering process to improve its resistance to wear. The connecting rod bearing shell can be identified
by having a slighter darker colouration than the big-end bearing cap shell, and the back face of the connecting rod
bearing shell has a shinier finish than the front face.
On EU3 vehicles both bearing shells are of the same construction as the connecting rod bearing shell.
The small-end of the connecting rod has a bushed solid eye which is free to move on the gudgeon pin, the
bushing is a hand push, interference fit. The steel bushing has two slots machined in its upper surface for
providing oil lubrication to the moving surface of the gudgeon pin. The oil slots must be correctly aligned to the oil
slots provided in the small end of the connecting rod. The small-end lubrication is supplied by squirt feed from the
piston lubrication jets.

OVERHAUL Valve springs - Inspection
1.Check free length of valve springs:
Free length =47.0±0.25 mm (1.85±0.011 in)
CAUTION: Valve springs must be replaced
as a set, if springs are to be refitted, keep
them in their fitted order.
Valves and valve guides - Inspection
1.Clean carbon from valves, check valves for
burning, pitting or cracking; replace as
necessary.
2.Clean carbon from valve seat inserts, remove all
loose particles on completion.
3.Check valve seat inserts for pitting and burning.
CAUTION: It is not permissible to recut or
replace valve seat inserts.
4.Remove carbon deposits from valve guides
using toolLRT-12-186.
CAUTION: Tool must be inserted from
combustion chamber face side of cylinder
head, ensure all loose particles of carbon
are removed on completion.
5.Check and record diameter of each valve stem.
Valve stem diameter:
Inlet = 6.907 to 6.923 mm (0.2719 to 0.2725 in)

in)
6.Renew any valve if stem diameter is less than
specified.7.Check and record valve stem to guide clearance
using the following procedures:
8.Insert each valve into its respective guide.
9.Extend valve head 10 mm (0.375 in) out of valve
seat and position a DTI gauge to rear of valve
head.
10.Move valve towards front of cylinder head and
zero DTI gauge ensuring that stylus of gauge
remains in contact with valve head.
11.Move valve towards rear of cylinder head, record
gauge reading to give valve stem to guide
clearance.
Valve stem to guide clearance:
Inlet valve = 0.025 to 0.059 mm (0.0009 to
0.0023 in)
Exhaust valve = 0.035 to 0.069 mm (0.0013 to
0.0027 in)
CAUTION: If stem to guide clearance
exceeds figures given and valve stem
diameters were as specified, cylinder head
assembly must be replaced; it is not possible to
replace valve guides.
12.Repeat above procedures for remaining valves.
CAUTION: Keep valves in their fitted order.
13.Check face angle of each valve, renew any
valve with incorrect face angles, do not attempt
to recut.
