Other considerations for taking into account with all the engines:
The connecting rods and their bearing caps are marked with matching identification numbers in addition to the
relevant cylinder number for assembly purposes.
It is necessary to replace the connecting rod bolts either after their third retightening or according to the relevant
maintenance instructions.
The counterweight bolts must be changed at each regrinding of the crankshaft.
The lips of the front and rear seals must be oriented towards the inside of the engine and impregnated with motor
oil on assembly.
The damper is a precision device, the internal parts of which are adjusted to very close tolerances. Any wear of its
external housing can reduce its performance and cause serious damage to the engine crankshaft. It should be
changed, following the relevant instructions for that purpose.
Main bearing caps are marked with figures in ascending order from the flywheel side. These figures are
reproduced on the lower face of the cylinder block.
