ENGINE BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
The 2.5L CRD Diesel engine uses a cast iron
engine block with wet cast iron cylinder liners (Fig. Fig. 34 CRANKSHAFT ASSEMBLY
33). 1 - CRANKSHAFT SUPPORT HALVE
2 - MAIN BEARING HALVE
3 - CRANKSHAFT
4 - MAIN BEARING HALVE
5 - CRANKSHAFT SUPPORT HALVE
6 - MAIN BEARING SUPPORT BOLTS
7 - WASHERS
OPERATION
The crankshaft transfers force generated by com-
bustion within the cylinder bores to the flywheel or
flexplate.
CYLINDER LINERS
DESCRIPTION
The cylinder wall liner used on this engine is of
the wet design. O-rings are used to seal the liner to
the engine block.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove engine from vehicle.
(2) With engine completely disassembled, use spe-
cial tool VM.1001 to remove liner assembly (Fig. 40).
(3) Tighten bolt on VM.1001 to remove liner from
block (Fig. 41). Fig. 41 CYLINDER LINER REMOVAL
(4) Remove shims from cylinder liner or cylinder 1 - SPECIAL TOOL VM.1001
block recess. Keep shims with each cylinder liner. 2 - CYLINDER LINER
3 - ENGINE BLOCK
9a - 34 ENGINE RG
CYLINDER LINERS (Continued)
INSPECTION
The cylinder walls should be checked for out-of-
round and taper with a dial bore gauge. The cylinder
bore out-of-round is 0.100 mm (.0039 in.) maximum
and cylinder bore taper is 0.100 mm (.0039 in.) max-
imum. If the cylinder walls are badly scuffed or
scored, new liners should be installed and honed, and
new pistons and rings fitted.
Measure the cylinder bore at three levels in direc-
tions A and B (Fig. 42). Top measurement should be
10 mm (3/8 in.) down and bottom measurement
should be 10 mm (3/8 in.) up from the bottom bore.
INSPECTION
PISTONS
