ENGINE REASSEMBLY
General
To reassemble, reverse the disassembly procedure. Any special instructions concerning reassembly
are expressly highlighted in the text. Always replace gaskets, oil seals, metal retainers, sealing washers made from
deformable material (copper, aluminium, fibre, etc.) and self-locking nuts after removal. Bearing specifications and dimensions have
been calculated for a certain life. We recommend replacing the bearings - especially those exposed to heavy loading - also considering
that checking them for wear is not an easy procedure. These recommendations are in addition to the dimensional checks of individual
components specified in the relevant section (see Section G "ENGINE OVERHAUL"). Cleaning all components thoroughly is critical to
reliability; bearings and any wear parts must be lubricated with engine oil before assembly. Screws, nuts and bolts must be tightened
to the specified torque (see pages H.4-H.15 and Section X "TIGHTENING TORQUE FIGURES").
