3.1 Description and Operation of Camshaft and Rocker Shaft/Engine


Brake Assembly and Related Parts

The engine uses a dual overhead camshaft and rocker shaft design. The intake and exhaust camshafts are
timed to each other, through a geartrain, to the crankshaft. The camshaft housing houses the camshafts
and valve train. It has internal oil passages to supply oil from the block to the camshaft and rocker
bearings along with pressurized oil to the engine brake rockers via the engine brake solenoids through
the exhaust shaft. The camshaft housing is made of aluminum material.

3.2 Description and Operation of Engine Braking

The engine uses an integral engine brake. Engine braking is controlled electronically by the engine
control system with an electric solenoid. When activated, the solenoid allows oil pressure to activate a
piston on the exhaust rocker arm. Engine braking is accomplished with a single exhaust valve in each
cylinder. The exhaust camshaft uses a separate engine brake-only lobe that allows for double valve
activation for high efficiency braking. The exhaust valve is first operated toward the completion of the
intake stroke, closed during the compression stroke and opened a second time when the compression
stroke is completed. The engine brake system is enabled using the following components:

EPA07 Engines

• Engine brake solenoid valve in front of engine applies low engine braking.
• Engine brake solenoid valve in rear of engine applies medium engine braking.
• For high, both front and rear solenoids are activated.
• Six exhaust rocker arms with actuator pistons.
• Six brake rocker arms which are actuated by the brake camshaft lobes.
• Exhaust camshaft has one brake cam lobe per cylinder.

For EPA07 engines, the exhaust rocker arm shaft lubricating oil passages direct pressurized oil to the
rocker arms. The exhaust rocker arm has two additional oil passages to operate the engine brakes. Oil
for cylinders 1 and 2 are supplied by the front engine brake solenoid valve. Oil for cylinders 3 through 6
are supplied by the rear engine brake solenoid valve.

• For high engine braking, both front and rear solenoids are activated, along with EGR.
• Six exhaust rocker arms with actuator pistons.
• Six brake rocker arms which are actuated by the brake camshaft lobes.
• Exhaust camshaft has one brake cam lobe per cylinder.

For EPA10 engines, the exhaust rocker arm shaft lubricating oil passages direct pressurized oil to the
rocker arms. The exhaust rocker arm has two additional oil passages to operate the engine brakes. Oil
for cylinders 1 through 3 is supplied by the front engine brake solenoid valve (11). Oil for cylinders 4
through 6 are supplied by the rear engine brake solenoid valve (12).

Power Service Literature Page 2 of 3

14. B. Level B
15. C. Level C
16. X. To Front of Engine

The gear train on the DD Platform engines is located at the rear of the engine and has three levels. Level
A consists of the outermost gears (closest to the flywheel), Level B consists of the middle gears, and
Level C consists of the innermost gears (closest to the block). The gears in the gear train are both
directly and indirectly driven by the crankshaft gear.

• Level A: The outermost gears include the crankshaft gear which drives the outer idler gear No. 1
and the oil pump gear. Idler gear No. 4 is on the crankshaft gear and the Axial Power Turbine
(APT) drives the idler gear No. 4 when the APT is creating power. The APT can add additional
torque to the crankshaft through idler gear No. 4 up to 260 N m (192 lb ft). These gears are all
helical-cut.
Note: On the DD13, there is no Axial Power Turbine (APT) and no Idler gear No. 4. The
position of the idler gear No. 4 is covered by a plate, and sealed with an O-ring.
• Level B: The middle gears include idler gear No. 1, which drives the air compressor gear and the
idler gear No. 2. Idler gear No. 2 drives the high pressure fuel pump and idler gear No. 3. These
gears are all straight-cut.
• Level C: The innermost gears include inner idler gear No. 3 which drives idler gear No. 5. Idler
gear No. 5 drives both intake and exhaust camshafts. These gears are all straight-cut.

Gear train noise is an indication of excessive gear lash, chipped or burred gear teeth. A rattling noise
usually indicates excessive gear lash. A whining noise indicates too little gear lash. Therefore, when
noise develops in a gear train, the gear train needs to be inspected.

8.1 Description and Operation of DD13 Exhaust Gas Recirculation


Cooler W ater Manifold Assembly

The primary purpose of the EGR cooler is to cool the engine exhaust gases prior to entering the intake
manifold. Exhaust gas cooling is accomplished by the flow of exhaust gases through the EGR cooler
tubes. The EGR cooler core then transfers the heat removed from the exhaust gases to the engine
coolant. The cooled exhaust gases are then mixed with incoming air from the Charge Air Cooler (CAC)
before being sent to the intake manifold.

11.1 Description and Operation of the DD13 Turbocharger and Related


Parts

Compression of air in the turbocharger causes an air mass to flow into the combustion chamber. The
turbocharger consists of a turbine and a compressor which are attached to a shaft. The exhaust gas flows
to the turbine wheel and causes it to turn. This turning motion is transmitted to the shaft and the
compressor impeller. The intake air from the air filter is compressed by the compressor impeller and
flows over a charge air pipe to the charge air cooler. The compressed air is cooled in the charge air
cooler, permitting a more dense charge of air to be delivered to the engine, and therefore, engine output
is increased. The charge air then passes from the charge air cooler into the intake manifold. The
turbocharger is mounted on the exhaust outlet flange of the engine exhaust manifold.

11.2 Removal of the DD13 Turbocharger

Cleaning the turbocharger is necessary before removal.

^ ^ W A R N IN G :

PERSONAL INJURY

To avoid injury from hot surfaces, wear protective gloves, or allow engine to cool before
removing any component.

^ ^ W A R N IN G :

PERSONAL INJURY

To avoid injury from contact with rotating parts when an engine is operating with the air
inlet piping removed, install an air inlet screen shield over the turbocharger air inlet. The
shield prevents contact with rotating parts.

Prior to removal, visually check for:

• Missing or loose nuts and bolts


• Loose or damaged intake and exhaust ducting
• Damaged oil drain lines
• Cracked or deteriorating turbocharger housing
• External oil leakage or exhaust leaks

Replace damaged parts with new parts.

Remove as follows:

NOTICE:
Do not attempt to remove carbon or dirt buildup on the compressor or turbine wheels without
removing the turbocharger from the engine. If chunks of carbon are left on the blades, an
unbalanced condition will exist and subsequent failure of the bearings will result if the
turbocharger is operated. However, it is not necessary to disassemble the turbocharger to remove
dirt or dust buildup.

1. Remove the turbocharger heat shields.


2. Disconnect the turbocharger ducting.
3. Disconnect and remove the Charge Air Cooler (CAC) ducting at the compressor housing. Remove
the compressor outlet elbow and inlet elbow.

13.1 Description and Operation of the DD15 - DD16 Turbocharger and


Related Parts

Compression of air in the turbocharger causes an air mass to flow into the combustion chamber. The
turbocharger consists of a turbine and a compressor which are attached to a shaft. The exhaust gas flows
to the turbine wheel and causes it to turn. This turning motion is transmitted to the shaft and the
compressor impeller. The intake air from the air filter is compressed by the compressor impeller and
flows over a charge air pipe to the charge air cooler. The compressed air is cooled in the charge air
cooler, permitting a more dense charge of air to be delivered to the engine, and therefore, engine output
is increased. The charge air then passes from charge air cooler into the intake manifold. The
turbocharger is mounted on the exhaust outlet flange of the engine exhaust manifold. The turbocharger
is mounted on the exhaust outlet flange of the engine exhaust manifold.

14.1 Description and Operation of the DD15 and DD16 Axial Power
Turbine and Related Parts

The Axial Power Turbine (APT) increases the efficiency and the economy of the engine by converting
the thermal energy in the exhaust flow from the turbocharger into mechanical energy, delivering the
resulting torque to the crankshaft. The rated speed of the turbine wheel of the APT device is about
50,000 rpm. The turbine wheel generates a torque in this range of about 10 N m (7 lb ft), which is
increased through various gear ratios up to 260 N m (192 lb ft). The exhaust gas flows to the turbine
wheel of the APT and drives the wheel. The rotational movement created is transmitted to the shaft of
the small output gear, and from there, to the large output gear of the hydrodynamic clutch. The rotational
speed is reduced because of the gear ratio between the output gear and drive gear; this gear ratio also
multiplies torque output. The hydrodynamic clutch impeller is a part of the hydrodynamic clutch
housing. The vanes on the impeller generate an oil flow in the hydrodynamic clutch which sets the
turbine wheel of the hydrodynamic clutch into rotation and the output gear is driven over a shaft. The
generated torque is transferred through the idler gear No. 4 to the crankshaft gear. It is also possible to
ensure, via the hydrodynamic clutch, that matching rotational speed takes place between the crankshaft
and the axial power turbine-drive.

The APT is connected to the engine oil circuit. The gears and the bearing are lubricated and cooled by
the engine oil. The hydrodynamic clutch is supplied with engine oil by the hollow bearing shaft. One
special aspect is the seal between the shaft and the exhaust turbine housing. The seal between these two
components is formed by using two metal sealing rings which are pressed into their seat by compressed
air. The pressure is regulated either by an air sealed pressure regulator or from the turbo charger
compressor.

16.1 Description and Operation of the Cylinder Head and Related Parts

This section explains the description(s) and operation(s) of the following systems within the cylinder
head:

• Cylinder Head
• Valve Springs and related components
• Intake and Exhaust Valves

Cylinder Head

The cylinder head has been designed with a compacted graphic iron material. There are two intake and
two exhaust valves per cylinder. To ensure the correct bolts are used when installing the cylinder head,
the bolt thread size 16 is stamped on the head of the bolt. All bolts must be tightened in the correct
sequence. The valve train assembly needs to be removed in order to access the cylinder head bolts.

The cylinder head has a split coolant jacket; the coolant flows around the cylinder to the inlet side of the
head and then to the exhaust side. The coolant flows in the lower level of the cylinder head around the
injectors and the valve seat rings. The coolant then flows around in the upper level of the cylinder head
and cools the valve guides. The advantage of this design is a very even and highly effective cooling
system.

Intake and Exhaust Valves

There are four valves per cylinder; two intake valves and two exhaust valves. Valves are made o f heat-
treated alloys, with precision-ground heads and stems. Stem ends are hardened to minimize wear in
contact with the valve rocker buttons. All valves are retained by valve spring caps and two-piece tapered
valve locks. Valve stem oil seals are installed on both intake and exhaust valves to provide controlled
valve stem lubrication while limiting oil consumption. The exhaust valves use a nickel-based alloy and
are identified by a smaller dimple on the combustion face. The intake valves are an iron based alloy and
are identified from the exhaust valve by a larger dimple on the combustion face.

19.2 Removal of the Cylinder Liner

Remove as follows:

NOTICE:
The proper method must be followed when removing the cylinder liner. Damage to the liners and
cylinder block may occur if the proper tools and procedures are not used.

1. Remove the piston and connecting rod. Refer to section "Removal of the Piston and Connecting
Rod Assembly"
2. Install cylinder liner removal tool (J-45876) into the cylinder liner.

3. Remove cylinder liner (2).

NOTICE:
After removing the liners from the engine and prior to installation, always store them in an
upright position until ready for use. Liners left on their side for any length of time can
become egg-shaped and distorted, making installation in cylinder bores difficult or
impossible. If the cylinder liners are to be reused, they should be marked for cylinder
location and engine orientation, a paint mark can be used to indicate the front of the engine
so they may be installed to the same cylinder from which they were removed.

4. Remove the two seal rings (1, 3) from the cylinder liner (2) and discard them.

19.3 Inspection of the Cylinder Liner

Inspect as follows:

NOTICE:
Cavitation is due to poor cooling system maintenance. If uncorrected, it will eventually
make holes through the liner. This can result in combustion gases blowing water out of the
radiator, oil in the coolant, or when the engine is stopped will allow water to flow into the
cylinder and result in major engine damage due to water in the oil or hydraulic lockup.

1. Inspect the cylinder liner.


a. Check the cylinder liner for cracks or scoring. If cracks or scoring are present, replace the
liner.
b. Check the cylinder liner for cavitation. If indication of cavitation is present, replace the
liner.
c. Check for bore polishing; if detected, replace the cylinder liner.
2. Inspect the outside diameter of the liner.
a. Check the liner for fretting.
b. If any fretting is found, remove it from the surface of the liner with a course, flat stone.
3. Inspect the liner flange in two steps:
a. Inspect the top surface of compression seal for cracks, smoothness and flatness.
b. Inspect the balcony (bottom stop).
4. Inspect the block bore and cylinder liner.
a. Measure the block bore and the outside diameter of the liner.
b. If the liner does not meet specification, replace with a new part.

20.1 Description and Operation of the Crankshaft and Related Parts

The crankshaft is made out of induction-hardened steel. The crankshaft bearing journals and connecting
rod journals are hardened in the boundary layer and then are ground. In order to avoid vibrations,
counterweights are cast onto the guide-ways. The crankshaft is mounted with seven crankshaft bearing
journals in the crankcase. There are oil holes located at the crankshaft bearing journal and the
connecting rod journal through which the crankshaft bearing and connecting rod bearing are lubricated.

Note: The DD13 engine has four counterweights, the DD15 and DD16 each have eight
counterweights.

Note: The crankshaft throws on the DD16 are longer than on the DD15 crankshaft.

25.1 Description and Operation of Oil Pump and Related Components

The oil pump supplies all of the engine oil circuits with engine oil. The oil pump ensures that engine oil
is available under all operating conditions, in adequate quantities, at the required pressure, and to the
respective locations.

A crankshaft drive gear drives the oil pump drive gear. The oil pump drive gear drives the two impellers
within the oil pump housing. The rotational movement of the impellers and the design of the pump
chamber suctions the engine oil from the oil pan, through oil strainer to the oil pump inlet. The engine
oil is delivered under pressure to the oil pump outlet, to the oil pump pressure line and then through the
return flow check valve to the main oil duct, into the engine oil circuit. The pressure regulator valve
regulates engine oil pressure. The pressure regulator valve has the oil pressure applied to it from the
engine oil in the main oil duct. Excess engine oil is fed by the pressure regulator valve to the suction
side according to the oil pressure in the main oil duct. This regulates the engine oil pressure and reduces
the operating energy input of the oil pump. High pressures in the oil circuit are avoided using the safety
valve. High pressure can occur in the cold start phase o f the engine if the engine oil is not yet of
sufficient viscosity. The safety valve opens at a pressure >10 bar and directs part of the engine oil back
into oil pan.

26.1 Description and Operation of the Crankcase Breather

The crankcase breather is located below the turbocharger on DD Platform engines, next to the starter on
the right hand side of the cylinder block. The crankcase breather has the primary task of regulating the
pressure in the crankcase as well as cleaning discharged blow-by gases. The gases from the crankcase
contain engine oil that can lead to adverse effects on engine emission levels.

The blow-by gas produced by the engine passes into the blow-by gas inlet in the crankcase breather
housing. In the housing, the blow-by gas flows to the centrifuge. The centrifuge drive gear is driven by
pressurized engine oil, causing the centrifuge to turn. The centrifugal force that is created causes the
blow-by gas to be pushed against the inside wall of the housing. The engine oil contained in the blow-by
gas runs along the inside wall downwards and flows to the outlet for the engine oil that has been
separated back into the oil pan. The cleaned blow-by gas flows to the outlet for blow-by gas to the
atmosphere. The crankcase breather is maintenance free for the working life of the component.

36.1 Description and Operation of the Coolant Thermostat

The coolant thermostat is located on the left side of the engine on the oil coolant module. The coolant
thermostat regulates the coolant inlet temperature in a range from 87°C (188°F) to 95°C (203°F).

1. Oil Coolant Module


2. Seal
3. Thermostat

The coolant thermostat regulates coolant flow from the engine to the radiator. The thermostat regulates
coolant flow to control the temperature of the coolant within the coolant circuit. The following benefits
result from regulating the coolant at the inlet temperature of the engine:

• Reduced thermal cycling of the engine


• Operating temperature is reached faster
• Emissions are reduced
• Improved vehicle heating

Thermostat Operating Modes

The coolant from the radiator and the radiator bypass mix in the thermostat housing. The thermostat
regulates the temperature of this mixed flow circuit. Three different operating conditions occur due to
the coolant mixed flow temperature:

• Bypass mode: When the coolant mixed flow temperature is below 87°C (188°F), the circulating
thermostat is closed. The coolant circulates through the radiator bypass to the coolant thermostat.
None of the flow passes through the radiator.
• Mixed mode: For a coolant mixed flow temperature above 87°C (188°F) to and less than 95°C
(203°F), the circulating thermostat opens partially and the coolant flows at the same time through
the engine radiator and the radiator bypass to the coolant thermostat.
• Radiator operation: When the coolant inlet temperature is above 95°C (203°F) the circulating
thermostat is completely open. The coolant flows through the radiator to the coolant thermostat.

http://extranet.detroitdiesel.com/power service/literature/Content/107/1072401.htm 2/19/2011


Power Service Literature Page 2 of 2

None of the flow passes through the radiator bypass.

Other minor coolant loops exist in addition to those described above. The flow through these loops are
unaffected by the position of the coolant thermostat. These loops include the flow through the vehicle
cab heater, vehicle bunk heater, the EGR actuator, and the doser.

40.1 Description and Operation of the Flywheel, Flywheel Housing and


Related Parts

This section explains the description(s) and operation(s) of the following components:

• Flywheel
• Ring Gear
• Flywheel Housing

Flywheel

The flywheel is attached to the rear end of the crankshaft with twelve bolts. The bolt holes in the
crankshaft and flywheel are equally spaced.

Ring Gear

The steel ring gear and flywheel is a two-piece assembly. Prior to assembly, the ring gear is heated to
expand its diameter. It is then installed onto the flywheel and allowed to cool. After the ring gear cools,
it contracts onto the flywheel, locking it in place.

2. Flywheel

Flywheel Housing

The flywheel housing is a one-piece aluminum casting mounted against the rear of the engine. It
provides a cover for the gear drive and houses the flywheel. The crankshaft rear oil seal, which is
pressed into the housing, may be removed or installed without removing the housing.

The power steering pump on some applications may be mounted on the flywheel housing. An engine
barring or locking device can be attached at the opening on the bottom of the flywheel housing. This
allows the engine to be barred or locked for maintenance or repair work.

45.1 Description and Operation of the Belt Drive Tensioner and Related
Parts

The engine uses two poly-V-belts. Since this type of belt is very flexible, a number of major assemblies
can be driven by one poly-V-belt. The alternator, refrigerant compressor, and coolant pump are driven
by one eight-ribbed poly-V-belt. The fan clutch and the engine fan are driven by one ten-ribbed poly-V-
belt.

The belt tensioners are firmly bolted onto the accessory bracket. The tensioning arms with tensioner
pulleys are turned counterclockwise by the force of the springs to provide the required tension in the
belts. There is a square hole in each tensioning arm to install a L> in socket tool for removal and
installation of the poly-V-belts. The outer poly-V-belt must be removed before removing the inner poly-
V-belt.

46.1 Description and Operation of the Poly-V Belts

The Poly-V belts are used to transmit power or torque from the crankshaft to each of the accessory
components.

These belts are currently constructed of a compound known as EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene
Monomer) instead of the typical Neoprene used in the past. The compound is much more elastic by
design, making it very resistant to cracking throughout its lifespan. Because the compound wears much
like a tire does on the road, a visual check of the belt is not a good indicator of belt wear. The proper
method is to measure how much each of the ribs is worn using a calibrated gauge, available from Gates.

47.1 Description and Operation of the Air Compressor

The function of the air compressor is to provide and maintain air under pressure to operate devices in air
brake systems. Detroit Diesel offers two sizes of air compressors. The single cylinder has a displacement
360 cm3 and the two cylinder has a displacement 650 cm3. Both compressors are installed with an
Energy Saving System (ESS) to save fuel.

The air compressor is mounted to the rear of the cylinder block on the left side of the engine.

The engine provides a continuous supply of oil to the compressor. Oil is routed from the oil passage in
the gear case to the compressor oil inlet. The air compressor is designed to permit direct installation of
the compressor onto the gear case. The compressor consists of a water-cooled cylinder head assembly
and an integral air-cooled crankcase assembly. The cylinder head assembly is made up of the cylinder
head, cooling plate and valve plate assembly and uses two sealing gaskets. The cylinder head contains
air and water ports as well as an unloader assembly. A cooling plate is located between the cylinder head
and valve plate assemblies and assists in cooling. The valve plate assembly consists of brazed steel
plates which have valve openings and passages for air and engine coolant to flow into and out of the
cylinder head.

Description and Operation of the Unloader Valve

The air compressor is driven by the engine and functions continuously when the engine is in operation.
The function of the unloader valve allows the air compressor to operate in an unloaded state, where the
compressor piston continues to reciprocate, but does not build additional air pressure in the vehicles
compressed air system. Located within the cylinder head, the unloader valve assembly (in conjunction
with the governor) controls whether the air compressor operates in a loaded or unloaded state.

http://extranet.detroitdiesel.com/power service/literature/Content/107/1072F01.htm 2/19/2011


Power Service Literature Page 3 of 5

When the vehicle air pressure system is above the minimum threshold, air pressure from the governor
acts on the unloader piston, lifting it off its seat. With the unloader valve unseated, air from the cylinder
flows into a small chamber in the head instead of into the vehicles compressed air system. Air then
cycles between the cylinder and chamber in the head until the unloader valve is seated once again.

Note: Air in piston shuttles back and forth from the piston to the closed room during unloaded
operation.

d 130035

1. Air from Governor Unloader Port


2. Closed Room
3. Unloader Piston Up and Unseated

When the vehicle air pressure system is below the minimum threshold, no air pressure is sent to the
unloader valve. With the unloader valve seated, the air compressor will build air pressure in the vehicle
compressed air system.

49.1 Description and Operation of the Cylinder Block and Related Parts

The cylinder block is the basic engine structure, establishing and maintaining the alignment o f all engine
working parts. The cylinder block is made from an iron material. High strength and low noise are
features of the cylinder block, and is a result of the vertical and horizontal reinforcements and the design
of the oil return ducts. The cylinder block lower collar design allows for a shorter distance between
cylinders and a more compact design for the cylinder block. Each cylinder bore is sealed to a cylinder
liner with two sealing rings: the upper sealing ring seals the upper coolant jacket to the cylinder block
bore, and the lower sealing ring seals the lower coolant jacket to the cylinder block bore.

1. Cylinder Liner
2. Top of Cylinder Liner
3. Upper Sealing Ring
4. Upper Coolant Jacket
5. Lower Coolant Jacket
6. Lower Collar
7. Lower Sealing Ring
8. Bottom of Cylinder Liner

The cylinder liners are designed as "bottom stop" cylinder liners which means that the cylinder liners are
installed with a lower collar in the cylinder block. This design allows for a shorter distance between
cylinders and a more compact design for the cylinder block.

The cylinder block has 1.5 mm counterbores machined on top for the cylinder head to cylinder block
sealing surface. The lubrication and coolant holes in the cylinder block supply the cylinder head with oil
and coolant. This allows for a superior sealing pressure between the gasket, cylinder head and cylinder
block. The cylinder block uses replaceable, wet-type cylinder liners.

49.3 Cleaning the Cylinder Block

NOTICE:
This cleaning procedure may be used on all ordinary cast iron and steel parts for the engine.
Aluminum parts, such as flywheel housing, air intake manifold, oil filter adaptor and the camshaft
gear access cover should NOT be cleaned in this manner. Mention will be made of special
procedures when necessary.

Before removing cylinder liners for block cleaning, the liner bores should be gauged to determine
whether liner replacement is necessary. Remove cylinder liners with the cylinder liner removal tool (J-
45876) before putting the block in cleaning or de-scaling baths, to avoid trapping cleaning agents in
block liner seating bores. Clean the cylinder block as follows:

1. Remove all oil and water gallery plugs to allow the cleaning solution to enter the inside of the oil
and water passages. Remove piston oil spray nozzles at the base of each cylinder bore.
2. Immerse and agitate the block in a hot bath of a commercial, heavy-duty alkaline solution.
3. Wash the block in hot water or steam clean it to remove the alkaline solution.
4. If the water jackets are heavily scaled, proceed as follows:
a. Immerse and agitate the block in a bath of inhibited phosphoric acid.
b. Allow the block to remain in the acid bath until the bubbling action stops (approximately 30
minutes).
c. Lift the block, drain it and immerse it again in the same acid solution for 10 more minutes.
Repeat until all scale is removed from the water jacket area.
d. Rinse the block in clear, hot water to remove the acid solution.
e. Neutralize the acid that may cling to the casting by immersing the block in an alkaline bath.
f. Wash the block in clean water and dry it.

^ ^ W A R N IN G :

EYE INJURY

To avoid injury from flying debris when using compressed air, wear adequate eye
protection (face shield or safety goggles) and do not exceed 276 kPa (40 psi) air
pressure.

5. Dry the cylinder block with compressed air. Blow out all of the bolt holes and passages with
compressed air.
6. Be certain that all water passages and oil galleries have been thoroughly cleaned and dried. Install
new cup plugs using a coating of good grade non-hardening sealant such as Loctite® 620 (or
equivalent).

49.6 General Inspection and Rust Prevention of the Cylinder Block

Inspect as follows:

Check all machined surfaces for nicks or burrs that could affect the fit of mating parts. Clean up as
necessary by stoning. Also inspect all tapped holes for thread damage and re-tap or install helical thread
inserts as necessary. Replace any loose or damaged dowel pins.

NOTICE:
Castings free of grease or oil will rust when exposed to the atmosphere. Rust on machined surfaces
may result in leakage.

After inspection, if the cylinder block is not to be used immediately, spray the machined surfaces with
engine oil.

If the block is to be stored for an extended period of time, spray or dip it in a polar-type rust preventive
such as "Tectyl® 502-C" from Valvoline Oil Company (or equivalent).
