7 Carefully turn the gear counter-clockwise, by hand
(A1), to remove the backlash between the idler gear
and the fuel pump gear. Do not rotate the crankshaft
or the fuel pump shaft. Tighten the setscrews for the
fuel pump gear to 28 Nm (20 lbf ft) 2,8 kgf m.
8 Remove the timing pin.
9 Fit the gear cover to the cover of the timing case.
For gear driven coolant pumps: Fit the coolant pump,
see operation 21-3.
Caution: Do not tighten the union nuts of the high-
A
pressure pipes more than the recommended torque
A 0 37 4/1
tension. If there is a leakage from the union nut,
ensure that the pipe is correctly aligned with the
atomiser inlet. Do not tighten the atomiser union nut
more, as this can cause a restriction at the end of the
pipe. This can affect the fuel delivery.
10 Fit all the pipes. Connect the control rod of the fuel
injection pump. Fit the cables and connection for the
cold start device and electrical stop solenoid to the
pump. Ensure that a spanner is used to prevent
movement of the pump outlets when the high-
pressure pipes are fitted and tighten the union nuts to
22 Nm (16 lbf ft) 2,2 kgf m.
11 Eliminate air from the fuel system, see operation
20-15.
12 Fit the cylinder head rocker cover.
13 Operate the engine and check for leakage. With
the engine at the normal temperature of operation,
check that the idle speed and the maximum no-load
speed are correct, see operation 20-14.
