ENGINE DISMANTLING

NOTE: On pages 100 / 101 the Assembly drawings of the most important parts of the engine are
shown.
For disassemble of the engine follow these steps:
– Remove the front cover from the timing belts
– Place the engine in the TDC position for the left
cylinder detonation phase.
The TDC position can be found by referring to the
engine flywheel Fig. 11-01 or, more precisely, by
inserting a feeler gauge in contact with the piston
head using the appropriate tool cod. 30 94 82 00
inserted in the spark plug hole.
– Check the timing references as indicated in
Fig. 11-02; if the marks on the pulleys, on the
hubs and on the shafts are not clearly visible or are
missing, it is necessary to restore these assembly
reference marks with indelible paint, according to
the lines No.1, 2 and 3 indicated in the drawing.
– The above applies for subsequent reassembly, if it
is not necessary to replace any of the timing
system parts or only the belts need replacing for
periodic maintenance. If the belts already fitted on
the engine are to be used again, when they are
being removed they should be given reference
marks with paint which must be observed during
reassembly.
