11. Appropriate precautions must be taken when jacking and supporting the vehicle. It must be ensured that the vehicle is lifted and the supports are installed under it in the places designated for this.
a) If the vehicle is to be jacked up only at the front or rear, it must be ensured that the wheels of the opposite axle are securely locked for safety reasons.
b) Immediately after jacking up the vehicle, it is imperative to place it on stands. It is extremely dangerous to carry out any work on a vehicle that is suspended on only one jack.
1. Remove the air filter.
2. Check and clean the air filter if necessary.
a) Check if the filter is too dirty or oily, and its integrity. Replace if necessary.
b) Blow out the filter element with compressed air (first from the inside and then from the outside).
3. Install the air filter.
Note: check and adjust on a cold engine.
1. Remove the cylinder head cover with gasket.
2. Measure the thermal clearance in the valves.
a) Set the piston of the first cylinder to TDC of the compression stroke. - Turn the crankshaft until the mark on the crankshaft pulley aligns with the indicator on the oil pump housing.
Check that the valve tappets of the first cylinder are free and the fourth cylinder is clamped.
If these conditions are not met,
turn the crankshaft one
b) Adjust the valve clearances marked in the figure.
Measure the clearances of only those valves that are shown in the figure.
- Record measurement results that are out of specification. The measurement data will be required later when choosing the required shims (in my case, the size determined for each washer was “removed” at the factory).
Thermal clearances in valves
(measured on a cold engine):
intake valves. 0.20-0.30mm
exhaust valves. 0.25 - 0.35 mm
5. Adjustment of thermal clearances in the valves.
Note: the valves of one cylinder are controlled at the same time.
a) Turn the crankshaft so that the lug of the intake valve cam of the given cylinder is in a vertical position.
b) Rotate the notches on the pusher adjusting washers so that they can be accessed with a small screwdriver.
c) Depress the valve lifters.
d) Using a small screwdriver and magnetic bar, remove the shims.
e) Measure the thickness of the removed adjusting washer with a micrometer. Calculate the thickness of the new shim so that the design clearance meets the specifications given in the specification:
Select the shim that is closest to the design thickness. Note: Shims are available in 25 sizes, from 2.20 mm to 3.40 mm in 0.05 mm increments. The thickness is stamped on the washer.
e) Remove the special tool.
g) Recheck the valve clearance.
h) If necessary, adjust the clearances in the valves of other cylinders.
6. Install the cylinder head cover.
2- drain pipe fastening nut;
4 - fuel return hose to the tank;
5-sealing washer of the injector nozzle;
6 - nozzle sealing washer;
7 - high pressure fuel lines.
1. Remove the high pressure fuel line clamps. Disconnect fuel lines from injectors and injection pump.
2. Unscrew the nuts securing the drainage pipeline and remove it together with the gaskets.
3. Remove the injectors (use a high tool head) and lay them out in the order of installation on the cylinders.
4. Remove the nozzle and sprayer seals from the head.
1 - fuel supply from injection pump
2 - channel for "return" of excess fuel
The nozzles are checked for general tightness, the tightness of the sprayer, the mobility of the sprayer needle, the pressure of the beginning of the opening of the sprayer needle, the shape of the atomized fuel jet and the presence of gas erosion of the sprayer and other performance indicators. Entrust the check to qualified specialists (here in Blagoveshchensk this is MIRAGE (a very large number of stands for testing engines, high pressure fuel pumps, injectors, etc.) and GRAND MOTORS).
Pressure of the beginning of the rise of the sprayer needle, bar
1. Replace the sprayer only with the one specified by the manufacturer.
2. Tighten the gun mount nut to 37 Nm.
Attention: applying a higher torque will deform the sprayer and damage it.
3. Thoroughly clean the nozzle slots in the block head. Install new sealing washers in the cylinder head socket. Install the injectors, tighten them to a torque of 64 Nm.
Attention: exceeding the tightening torque is not allowed.
4. Install new aluminum (the old system can suck in air) sealing washers of the drainage pipeline and the pipeline itself, tighten the fastening nuts to a torque of 29 N.m. Connect the drain line to the fuel return hose to the tank.
6. Start the engine and check for fuel leaks.
7. Adjust idle speed (if necessary).
Adjust the gear shift in the automatic transmission with a throttle cable (commonly referred to as a KIK-down cable). Many owners of automatic transmissions on a minibus have such a defect. Over time, someone in the heat, someone after passing 80-90 km Automatic transmission, even sometimes with a smooth acceleration out of the blue, throws off OVERDRIVE-and on 3 speed... Sometimes this happens several times that tires the driver and begins to annoy and distract him, periodically forcing him to “play” the accelerator pedal.
Regulator on the high pressure fuel pump (TNVD)
1. Throttle cable going to the automatic transmission 2. fixing the shell with two nuts to the clamp to the high-pressure fuel pump
And the reason lies in a worn out or requiring adjustment of the throttle cable (it goes from the regulator of the injection pump to the automatic transmission), which gives information to the automatic transmission about the degree of pressing the pedal. Sometimes the cable “rubbing in” or falling out of the termination into a metal clamp (which leads to a decrease in its free travel) and no longer meets the requirements for automatic switching.
The principle of operation is such that when the throttle cable is fully extended, a downshift occurs (for example, from 4th to 3rd, from 3rd to 2nd, from 2nd to 1st). Since the throttle cam opens the oil valve when the cable is fully extended. If you fully extend it, you can go as on the first one - without switching.
We will tell you how to adjust it: Loosen the nuts for fixing the cable sheath (2) and fix it in such a way that the protruding end of the cable is not stretched (it sags a little and is completely pulled out of the sheath only at the position of the maximum regulator speed). We fix and check on the track in high-speed mode. If it is required to weaken even more, we select it experimentally. He performed similar actions on his car, achieved good results, switches back only during long ascents, as well as during intensive overtaking (with black smoke) ...
Supplement to the article sent to us
By changing the length of the throttle position cable, you actually control the oil reducer, which forms the pressure controlling the gearbox. It becomes a kick-down cable only when the gas pedal is fully depressed. By changing the length of the cable, you can set the gearbox operation modes: smoother - economy - by lengthening it, or sharper - sporty - by shortening. On new boxes there are similar switches, but on ours, you should choose the golden mean, otherwise the engine power is not used efficiently. When choosing a high gear, the diesel engine runs at low revs and accelerates very slowly - the diesel engine does not pick up. They keep the revs well, but accelerate slowly. Therefore, the entire set of speed is in low gears, an overdrive for a smooth ride! The problem under discussion is the shifting of the gear when the load increases. The pedal is not fully depressed - this is not a kick-down, therefore, this is a normal reaction of the box to the load. However, it may seem abnormal if there is any problem with the oil.
1.Low oil level - the pump traps air along with the oil and the resulting emulsion does not have the required compression properties, and the valve mechanism considers that there is a large overload and lowers the gear.
2. High level - the rims of the gears of the box cling to the oil and foaming it, the effect is the same.
3. Clogged oil filter - oil does not enter the pump - the pump is catching air - see above. An additional symptom is a sharp rise in the oil level on the dipstick. Those. start the car, measure the oil level and drive. When the effect of resetting the gears appears, they are measured again. Typically, the measured level is well above the heated oil level. The car stood at idle speed, the level is measured again and it drops to the normal level of heated oil!
Probably, there are also external faults. But they are all diagnosed as low pressure in the main oil line.
Our boxes, in principle, are considered indestructible, so you can try to rinse the filter and enjoy driving a new car.The only problem is the accuracy of the assembly. the oil tubes in the pan sit tight, but nowhere is it written. And once removed, it slips back into place - but doesn't hold the pressure! It is necessary to expand them by ten and install them tightly in place.
Overheating of the oil is also possible. When in July the temperature in Moscow exceeded +30, the car did not drive over 110 by any means. The oil cooler is clean outside, I don’t know inside - laziness. but as the temperature dropped to +25 everything is OK.
