CAUTION: Camshaft timing belts must be
stored and handled with care. Always store
a camshaft timing belt on its edge with a
bend radius greater than 50 mm (2.0 in). Do
not use a camshaft timing belt that has been
twisted or bent double as this will damage
the reinforcing fibres. Do not use a
camshaft timing belt if debris other than belt
dust is found in timing belt covers. Do not
use a camshaft timing belt if partial engine
seizure has occurred. Do not use a
camshaft timing belt if mileage exceeds
72,000 km (45,000 miles). Do not use an oil
or coolant contaminated timing belt, cause
of contamination must be rectified.

Petrol.Reassembly
1.Clean cylinder liners and liner recess in cylinder
block.
2.Lubricate cylinder liner bores, pistons and rings
with clean engine oil, ensure ring gaps are
correctly spaced.
3.Clean bearing shell recesses in connecting
rods and bearing caps.
4.Fit piston ring clamp, LRT-12-204 to each
piston in turn and fit piston to its respective
cylinder liner ensuring that when fitted, arrow
on piston crown will be towards front of engine.
CAUTION: Do not push pistons fully down
bores at this stage.
5.Remove piston ring clamp.
6.Apply a 2.00 mm (0.1 in) thick continuous bead
of sealant, Part No. RTC 3347, around
shoulder of each cylinder liner as shown.
7.Keeping cylinder liner 'square' to cylinder block,
push each liner fully down until shoulder of liner
seats against cylinder block ensuring that the
arrow on the piston is towards front of engine.
8.To prevent cylinder liners from being displaced,
position LRT-12-144 cylinder liner clamps and
secure to cylinder block with cylinder head
bolts. Ensure that feet of clamps do not
protrude over liner bores.
