3.7.3 Fitting counterbalance unit
Procedure
1.
Fit the tension pins to the cylinder block.
2.
Turn the crankshaft and weights so that the
markings correspond, and lift the unit into
place.
3.
Tighten the screws to 60 Nm. Check that the
tooth backlash between the crankshaft and
counterweight is 0.1 - 0.3 mm. The backlash
can be increased by placing 0.2 mm-thick
shims (order number 8361 19920) between
the cylinder block and balancer unit body.
One shim (0.2 mm) changes tooth backlash
by about 0.07 mm.
4.
Fit the lubricating oil pipe using new seals.
5.
Fit the oil sump.
