Notes:

• ◆ If when repairing an engine, metal shavings or a large quantity of small metal particles are found, this could indicate that the crankshaft and conrod bearings are damaged. To prevent consequential damage perform the following repairs:
• ‒ Thoroughly clean oil passages
• ‒ Replace oil spray jets
• ‒ Replace oil cooler
• ‒ Replace oil filter
• ◆ The oil level must not be above the max. mark - danger of damage to catalyst!
