3.2.3. Major maintenance – the general instructions

GENERAL INFORMATION

Objective indicators of the general condition of the engine, need of major maintenance of the engine with complete dismantling, results of measurements of pressure of oil and a compression in cylinders are indicating. The sensor of pressure of oil on the M10 models will screw in the left back part of a head of cylinders, on the M20 models – in the block of cylinders under the oil filter, on М40 – in a back part of the case of the oil filter. For measurement of pressure turn out the sensor and screw the confided manometer.


Prevention

At major maintenance of the engine all hoses of system of cooling, drive belts, the thermostat, the oil pump and the pump of cooling liquid are subject to obligatory replacement. Before works define a condition of the block of cylinders as acquisition of the restored engine, instead of repair available can appear more expedient.
