Important information
Important information
Tightening torques
Nearly all of the B 27/28 engine is made of aluminium
alloy.
The
threads
are
tapped directly into the alloy. For this reason it is extremely important that all of the bolts are tightened to specified torque.
Two types of tightening torques are used in this manu­al:
I.
Tightening torque 40
Nm
(30
ftlbs)
= a torque
wrench must be used.
II.
Tightening torque
40
Nm
(30
ft.lbs) = correct value, however it is not necessary to use a torque wrench.

Repairing spark plug threads
Cylinder head must be removed first. Tap hole from in­side to avoid damaging seat for spark
plug. Do not drill the hole. Use tap 998 5823-5. Re-cut old threads only. Do not cut further into
cylinder head. Spark plug bore must not be threaded
along entire length. Screw in thread insert (P/N 948756-2).

Install thread insert
Hold the tool vertically above the centre of the hole. Without pressing, screw in the thread insert until the
top thread of the insert is at least 1/2 a thread below the working surface (0.5 x pitch). The insert must not be screwed in to the bottom otherwise it will not be pos­sible to break off the tang.

Replacing piston or connecting rod Operations
C20-29
C20
General
Pistons- connecting rods should only be disassembled
when replacing pistons/liners. Once a piston has been
removed it may not be used again. This is because the piston is deformed when the gudgeon (piston) pin is removed.
If a
connecting rod is to be removed, it is not necessary
to disassemble the piston-connecting rod since new
connecting rods and pistons must be used.
Liner- piston - gudgeon pin are supplied in matched sets (six). Connecting rods are supplied in kits of six. Note that all six connecting rods must be replaced at the same time.

TIMING GEARS
F10
Install crankshaft gears and keys
Block holes in crankcase to prevent keys from falling
in. Lubricate parts. The mark on the inner gear must face out.
Note!
On late types, gear and spacer are manufactured
in one unit.
F11
Install:
- new strainers in cylinder block
- chain tensioners
- straight chain dampers
- bent chain dampers. Apply locking fluid (P/N
116
1053-2) to bolts.
F12
Set crankshaft and left-hand camshaft
The key in the crankshaft should point towards the left-
hand camshaft. The groove in the camshaft should point upwards and
there should be no clearance between the rocker arms
and valve stem tops for No. 1 cylinder.

Install left-hand camshaft chain and sprocket
Place the chain on the camshaft sprocket, with the mark on the sprocket between the two marks on the chain.
Place the chain on the inner crankshaft sprocket, with the mark on the chain opposite the mark on the sprock­et.
Stretch the chain on the pulling side (the side against the straight chain damper).
Position the camshaft sprocket. Make sure that the sprocket fits in the groove in the camshaft.
Install the centre bolt.

Tighten both camshaft centre bolts
Tighten to a torque of
70-90
Nm (52-66 ft.lbs.) Use a
screwdriver as a counterhold, placing it between two cogs on the sprocket without holes.

Set chain tension
Turn the crankshaft round twice. Remove the crankshaft nut.
Note!
The key in the crankshaft should point upwards to
prevent it from falling out of its groove.
When the crankshaft has been rotated the marks for the chains and sprockets do not coincide. It is necessary to ro­tate the crankshaft a large number of turns to obtain the correct position.
F19
Install:
- oil pump with sprocket
- chain and gear. Apply locking fluid (P/N
116
1053-2) to the bolts.

aligns with the 20° mark on the timing scale.
Note!
There are two marks on the pulley, 1 = T.D.C.
cylinder 1 and 2 = T.D.C. cylinder 6.
F25
Set crankshaft at T.D.C. cylinder 1
Insert a 8 mm drill
(0.315
in) in the blanking plug hole so
that it rests on the crankshaft counterweight.
Press lightly on the drill and turn the crankshaft slowly in the normal direction of rotation until the drill fits into
the hole in the counterweight. The engine is now set at exactly T.D.C. for cylinder 1.
F26
Check/adjust timing scale
The zero-mark on the scale must align exactly with the mark on the pulley.
F27
Install blocking plug
Use a new
seal.
Tightening torque
35-40 Nm (26-30

Before proceeding with valve clearance check: Camshaft setting must be checked. See specifica-
tions on page 8.

Install gaskets and valve covers
Use new gaskets. Apply a few spots of sealing com­pound.
(P/N 116 1026-8).
Place only four bolts in each valve cover. Do not tighten since the covers are to be removed later on.
To ensure that the junction between the valve cover, cylin­der block and timing gear case is fully leak-proof, a thin coat of silicone (P/N 116 1048-2) can be applied to the joint. Note!
Do not use too much silicone otherwise it may enter
the lubrication system and block the oil channels.
