8. Attach a DTI to front of cylinder block, move crankshaft rearwards, position stylus of gauge on end of crankshaft and zero gauge.
9. Move crankshaft forwards, measure and record end-float obtained.
^
Crankshaft end-float = 0.08 to 0.26 mm (0.003 to 0.01 in).
10. Lubricate plain bearing shells with clean engine oil and fit to main bearing caps.
11. Fit main bearing caps 1 to 4 only at this stage, ensuring that they are the correct way round and in their fitted order.
12. Lightly lubricate threads of main bearing cap bolts with clean engine oil.
13. Fit main bearing cap bolts but do not tighten at this stage. Do not fit side bolts at this stage.
14. Fit side seals to rear main bearing cap, ensuring that seals protrude approximately 1.5 mm (0.06 in) above bearing cap face.
15. Apply a 3 mm (0.12 in) wide bead of Hylomar PL32 jointing compound to bearing cap rear mating faces on cylinder block.
CAUTION: Ensure sealant does not enter bolt holes.
16. Carefully fit rear main bearing cap assembly, fit but do not tighten bolts.
CAUTION: Ensure engine oil does not enter the side bolt holes in the bearing cap.
17. Lubricate 'Dowty' washers with engine oil and fit to side bolts.
18. Fit but do not tighten side bolts. Rear side bolts are Allen headed.
19. Using the sequence shown, tighten main bearing cap bolts as follows:
^
Initial torque - all main bearing cap bolts and side bolts - 13.5 Nm (10 ft. lbs.).
^
Final torque - main bearing cap side bolts 11 to 15 - 45 Nm (34 ft. lbs.).
^
Final torque - main bearing cap bolts 1 to 8 - 72 Nm (54 ft. lbs.).
^
Final torque - main bearing cap bolts 9 and 10 - 92 Nm (68 ft. lbs.).
^
Final torque - main bearing cap side bolts 16 to 20 - 45 Nm (34 ft. lbs.).
20. Trim off excess material from rear main bearing cap side seals.
21. Fit connecting rod bearings.
22. Clean timing chain and gears.
