14 Series 4144 Powerhead
The new flange 5910 850 4200 
replaces the previous flange 1128 
850 4200. The new flange has an 
additional recess (arrow) in its 
sealing face. The previous flange 
1128 850 4200 can be modified 
accordingly.
Modify the test flange 
1128 850 4200 as shown.
: Fit the test flange (1) 
5910 850 4200.

: Fit the nuts (arrows) and tighten 
them down firmly.
6.1.2 Vacuum Test
Oil seals tend to fail when subjected 
to a vacuum, i.e. the sealing lip lifts 
away from the crankshaft during the 
piston's induction stroke because 
there is no internal counterpressure.
A test can be carried out with pump 
0000 850 1300 to detect this kind of 
fault.
: Connect suction hose (1) of 
pump 0000 850 1300 to 
nipple (arrow).

: Push ring (1) to the left.
: Operate the lever (2) until the 
pressure gauge (arrow) indicates 
a vacuum of 0.5 bar.
If the vacuum reading remains 
constant, or rises to no more than 
0.5 bar within 20 seconds, it can be 
assumed that the oil seals are in 
good condition.
However, if the pressure continues 
to rise (reduced vacuum in the 
engine), the oil seals must be 
replaced, b 6.2.
– After finishing the test, push the 
ring to the right to vent the pump.
– Continue with pressure test,
