This Technical Information Bulletin is a supplement to TI-C-43, group J-287, dated February 1997

 

Subject:

 

Altered Assembly Sequence for Oil Pump

 

Vehicles:

 

Vectra-B, Calibra, Omega-B and Sintra with V6 DOHC Petrol Engine (X 25 XE and X 30 XE).

 

Condition:

 

Following publication of the above Technical Bulletin, the assembly sequence for the oil pump was extended once again.

 

In order to ensure that, after replacement of the oil pump gasket, the fastening bolts for the oil pump do not loosen and cause leaks, proceed as described below.

 

In addition, during Model Year ´97, design modifications have been made to the oil pump and the rear toothed belt cover.

 

 

 

 

Remedy:

 

Comparison of individual components.

 

The hatched surfaces show the alterations:

 

1     Old oil pump

2     New oil pump (design modifield and stator enlarged)

3     New fastening bolt (M6 x 25)

4     Old rear toothed belt cover

5     New read toothed belt cover (with bore for oil pump fastening bolt)

 

These modifications mean that there are now two different assembly sequences for the oil pump.

As previously described in TI - C - 43, J - 287, the oil pump gasket may only be coated lightly on the pump fastening bolts in the prescribed order (1 - 6) to a tightening torque of 8 Nm/6 lbf. ft.

 

Assembly Sequence 1:

 

Version without additional bore in rear toothed belt cover (old version)

 

Install lower toothed belt guide roller (7) and alternator (8) - tightening torque 40 Nm/29.5.lbf.ft.

 

Allow the oil pump sealing compound to cure for approx. 10 min.

 

Do not attach the rear toothed belt cover yet.

 

Now retighten oil pump fastening bolts to a tightening torque of 10 Nm / 7 lbf. ft.

 

Remove toothed belt guide roller again and attach rear toothed belt cover.

 

Follow the standard assembly procedure from this point on.
