Where valve PN 944 107 035 01 is to be installed, use special tool 9262/1 (this tool replaces special tool 9262).
Where valve PN 944 107 035 11 is to be installed, use special tool 9215.
NOTE:
Special tool 9215 is only used in engines having a steel sleeve installed in the oil pressure relief valve passage (1983-1986). It is important that the
sleeve (arrow B) be firmly installed in the crankcase. If loose, the oil cooler housing must be removed and the sleeve secured with loctite 648 or 638.
Drive the sleeve to stop with special tool 9215. Consult the 944 Workshop Manual Vol. 1, page 17-22 for additional instruction.
