Removing and installing sender wheel
–  The sender wheel and securing bolts must be renewed if the bolts are loosened.
–  Clean the contact surface of crankshaft/sender wheel; it must be free of oil and grease.
–  Thinly coat the contact surface of crankshaft/sender wheel with locking fluid; for locking fluid refer to → Electronic parts catalogue.
Installation position:
l  The marking “VR6”-Item 2- must be positioned at the bore of the bolt which secures the crankshaft conrod journal -3- (dotted line shows outline of crankshaft -1-).
l  The gap -arrow- in the starter gear ring is positioned opposite the "VR6" marking.
l  Ignore the second “VR6” marking -Item 4-.
–  First tighten the new bolts only finger-tight.
–  Then tighten bolt -3-.
–  Tighten the two other bolts last.
