10 Unscrew the auxiliary shaft sprocket bolt
while holding the sprocket stationary with a
screwdriver inserted through one of the holes.
11 Remove the auxiliary shaft sprocket using
a puller if necessary (see illustration).
12 Unscrew the camshaft sprocket bolt while
holding the sprocket stationary with a
screwdriver engaged in one of the grooves.
Alternatively remove the rocker cover and use
a spanner on the camshaft lug.
13 Remove the camshaft sprocket using a
puller if necessary, then remove the backplate.
Note that the oil seal can be removed using a
special removal tool or by using self-tapping
screws and a pair of grips.
1 Remove the timing belt and the auxiliary
shaft sprocket (only) (Section 13).
2 Remove the distributor.
3 Remove the fuel pump and pushrod (not
applicable to models with an electric pump).
4 Unscrew the bolts and remove the auxiliary
shaft front cover (see illustration).
5 Unscrew the cross-head screws, using an
impact screwdriver if necessary, remove the
thrust plate and withdraw the auxiliary shaft
from the block (see illustrations).
6 Cut the front cover gasket along the top of
the crankshaft front oil seal housing and
scrape off the gasket.
1 If the engine is still in the vehicle, remove
the clutch or automatic transmission.
2 Prevent the flywheel or driveplate rotating
by jamming the ring gear teeth, or by bolting a
strap to it.
3 Remove the securing bolts and withdraw
the flywheel or driveplate. Do not drop it, it is
heavy.
4 The engine adapter plate (backplate) may
now be withdrawn from the dowels if required
(see illustration).
1 If the engine is out of the vehicle, start at
paragraph 11. If possible, remove the sump
without inverting the engine, so that any
sludge in the bottom of the sump stays there.
2 Disconnect the battery negative lead.
3 Raise and support the front of the vehicle.
4 Remove the splash guard, if fitted, and drain
the engine oil.
5 Remove the starter motor.
6 Remove the two nuts which secure the
engine bearers to the engine mountings.
7 Release the steering shaft universal joint
strap bolt to allow for subsequent movement.
8 Free the brake hydraulic pipes from the
clips on the front crossmember.
9 Support the engine, either with conventional
lifting tackle or with a bar positioned across
the engine bay and resting on two wooden
blocks drilled to fit securely on the suspension
turrets. Make sure the support arrangements
are satisfactory, as you will be working
underneath the suspended engine.
10 Take the weight of the engine. Place a jack
under the front crossmember, remove the
crossmember mounting bolts and carefully
lower the jack. Only lower the crossmember
far enough to permit removal of the sump.
11 Remove the 23 bolts retaining the sump.
12 Remove the sump from the cylinder block
(see illustration). If it is stuck, hit it with a soft-
faced mallet, or prise it sideways (not between
the mating faces) with a large screwdriver or
bar.
13 Recover the gaskets and sealing strips.
