AXIAL CAMSHAFT BEARING
NOTE
The
spacer is a little thicker than the camshaft
thrust plate. The difference in measurement corre-
sponds to the axial play in the camshaft. To indi-
cate the size group, the spacers have red or blue
markings. When fitting new parts, choose a spacer
giving the correct axial play. A red spacer gives a
small clearance and a blue one a larger clearance.
Axial play 000098—0003 in. (0025—0076 mm).
Locate the key in the crankshaft. Secure the gear
on the shaft with a bolt and washer, tightening to
a torque of 49 Nm (36 ft.Ib., 5.0 kpm).
Avoid tapping the gear, as this may damage the
axial bearings of the crankshaft.
20. Apply a thin coat of sealing compound to the
mounting surface of the intermediate plate on the
front of the block and to the block. Position the
gasket on the block and install the plate loosely
with the two retaining bolts. Temporarily install
the two lower bolts as guide dowels and tighten
the two retaining bolts. Also make sure that the
lower edge of the plate is in line with the level of
the pan. Then remove the guide bolts.
