The oil pan of the 3512 Vehicular Engine arrangement


has a scavenge pump. The scavenge pump is
standard on vehicular engine arrangements. The
pump gives a continuous oil flow to the standard
engine oil pump sump during vehicle operation
over rough ground and on steep grades.

The location of the scavenge pump is under the front of


the block inside the oil pan. With a front sump
oil pan, the scavenge pump is driven from the
front crankshaft gear.

When the oil pan is reversed and the pan sump is in the
rear, the pump is near the rear of the block and
is driven from the rear crankshaft gear. The
pickup tube in the oil pan (arrow) is connected to
the inside of the oil pan.

CAMSHAFT BEARINGS

Here you can see two camshaft bearings. Each


bearing has a groove around the outside
circumference and two oil holes 180 degrees
apart. In the bearing on the right, you can see
the bearing joint where the ends of the
bearing come together and locks.

The groove around the bearings makes a passage for


oil to the two oil holes for lubrication of the
camshaft. The groove also sends oil through a
passage to the hollow dowel in the top of the
block which sends oil to the cylinder head for
lubrication of the lifters and rocker arm
assemblies of that cylinder.

The hole (arrow) that you see here is the location of


the hollow dowel that sends oil into the cylinder
head for lubrication of the rocker arm
assemblies.

With the dowel removed (as it is here), you can see the
groove around the bearing.When the bearing is
positioned correctly, the groove of the bearing
will be seen in the center of the dowel hole.
This will permit the oil to go around the outside
of the bearing, through the hollow dowel and
into the cylinder head.

Installation of cam bearings with the dowels installed


(ARROWS) requires the use of other methods to
check for correct bearing alignment.

NOTICE
When a bearing is not installed correctly, oil
cannot get through the oil passages to the rocker
arm assemblies an parts will be damaged from
no lubrication.

A method that can be used to check correct alignment is


to measure from the rear machined face of the
cylinder block to the rear edge of each bearing.

Air pressure can also be used to check bearing


alignment. Put air pressure in the hole in the
dowel. If the air meets little resistance and can
be felt at the oil holes in the bearing, the
alignment is acceptable.

Oil can also be used to check bearing alignment. Put the


nozzle (spout) of a pressure oil can tight against
the hole in the dowel. Pump the oil can several
strokes. If there is little or no resistance to the
flow of oil and the oil comes out one or both
holes in the bearing, the alignment is acceptable.

If the dowels are removed, look down the bore in the


block and visually check the bearing for correct
position.

The camshafts have marks (STAMPED) on each end.


These marks give an indication of the location
and side of the engine that the camshaft must be
installed for STANDARD or REVERSE
direction of engine rotation.

For STANDARD engine rotation, the camshaft for the


left bank (shown) has the mark:
FRONT L.H. on the front (as seen on your right)
and REAR L.H. on the rear (as seen on your
left). The camshaft for the right bank (not
shown) has FRONT R.H. on the front and REAR
R.H. on the rear.

When you stand at the front of the STANDARD


rotation engine with the gear cover removed, you
will see FRONT L.H. on the left camshaft and
FRONT R.H. on the right camshaft. You will
also see the crankshaft with the mark FRONT
STD. (see slide 46). Make sure the camshafts are
not turned front to rear or side to side when they
are installed.

For REVERSE engine rotation, the left camshaft is


turned front to rear and installed in the right
bank (opposite side). The right camshaft is
turned front to rear and installed in the left bank
(opposite side).

When you stand at the front of the engine that has


REVERSE rotation, the camshaft on the right
bank will have the mark REAR L.H. The
camshaft on the left bank will have the mark
REAR R.H. You will also see the crankshaft with
the mark FRONT REV.(see slide 47).

The firing order for REVERSE engine rotation is

CYLINDER HEADS

This shows one side of the block. The shelf (smaller


area) inside the cylinder liner bore and below
the top surface of the block, causes coolant to
move faster around the liner for better liner
cooling.

The block has no counterbores for cylinder liners.


Spacers plates are used. The dowels seen at the
top of the block put the spacer plate and
cylinder head in alignment.

Aluminum spacer plates, one for each cylinder, are on


the top surface of the block. A thin rubber-clad
metal gasket goes between the spacer plate and
the block. An O-ring goes on the block over
each hollow dowel (not shown).

The bottom of the spacer plate, the top of the block


and both sides of the spacer plate gasket must
be free of fuel, oil, water and gasket adhesives,
assembly compounds, or any contaminant
during assembly.

CAUTION!

Both surfaces of the spacer plate gasket and the top


of the cylinder block must be clean. Do not use a
gasket adhesive on these surfaces.

There are eight passages in the block for coolant which


are in alignment with holes in the spacer plate,
gaskets, and cylinder head. There is one rubber-
metal seal in each passage. There are four large
and four small seals. The seals go in the space
between the head and the block. They prevent
leakage and keep the coolant from making contact
with the aluminum spacer plate.

NOTE: Liner projection must be checked before


the cylinder head is installed. See the Service
Manual, Testing and Adjusting, and Specifications
and Procedures. Also, see Disassembly and
Assembly Module.

The marks (pencils) on the spacer plate (R, F, AT, and T)


have no use. The marks are used for factory
reference.

Here you see the coolant seals installed and the


cylinder head gasket on the space plate.
Remember, an O-ring seal goes on the oil
supply dowel (left arrow) BEFORE the spacer
plate is installed. Another O-ring seal goes on
the oil supply dowel AFTER the spacer plate
is installed. This seals the oil with pressure
which goes to the rocker arms.

The top dowels are solid and used for alignment of


the cylinder head.

Each cylinder head has one intake port and one


exhaust port with four valves. All valves are
the same and can be used in any location.

Each valve is held closed by two valve springs, one


inside the other. The springs are held on the
valve by a valve rotator (rotocoil assembly -
parts book nomenclature) and two valve
keepers or locks (parts book).

The valve rotators are of the positive action type


and turn the valves a few degrees each time
they open and close. They increase the life of
the valve and valve seat insert.

There are two valve bridges on each cylinder head.


One bridge operates the two intake valves.
The other bridge operates the two exhaust
valves. Each valve bridge is on a dowel that
is pressed into a bore in the cylinder head.
The dowel is between the two valves that the
bridge activates. Both bridges and dowels are
the same and can be used in any location. 34

Both bridges have been removed. You can see the


relation of the bridge dowel to the two valves
that the bridge activates. The dowel is a guide
for the bridge as it is moved up and down by
the rocker arm.

The plug seen in the side of the head (bottom arrow)


is in the passage that goes from the fuel inlet
opening on the top of the head (top arrow) to
the injector. A similar passage goes from the
other side of the injector to the fuel return
outlet opening. This also has a plug passage.

of the four (4) valves. You can see the top of
the injector follower and the injector rack.

The two (2) valves above the unit injector are the
exhaust valves. The two (2) valves below the
unit injector are intake valves.

The opening (1) at the bottom of the cylinder head is


for the fuel inlet line fitting. Fuel goes from
the inlet (1) through a passage to the unit
injector. Some fuel is injected into the
cylinder. The remaining fuel cools the injector
and goes through a passage to the fuel return
outlet (2) fitting.

We can see the top of the three lifter assemblies in the


cylinder head (see 3 arrows, left). The center
lifter is for the push rod for operation of the
unit injector. The top lifter is for the push rod
for operation of the exhaust valves.

The plug seen on the right (arrow) is over an


expansion plug which is in a core hole* which
goes into the coolant chamber of the cylinder
head. The expansion plug seals the core hole
to prevent coolant leakage. The plug you see is
on top of the cylinder head over the expansion
plug. The plug is used to support the injector
clamp.

MAIN BEARING CAPS


The main bearing caps have both “FRONT” and the
part number on the front side. They are
numbered from front to rear: one (1) through
seven (7). This location number is on the right
side of the cap. Also, the location number is on
the right outside of the block near the oil pan.

Install each cap with “FRONT” and the part number


toward the front of the block. The cap location
number must be the same as the location
number on the right side of the block.

TIGHTENING PROCEDURE

The tightening procedure on this engine is different


than that used on other engines because each
cap has four (4) bolts. Install each cap in the
correct position, put clean engine oil on the
threads of each bolt and turn the bolts into the
holes in the block.

PISTON COOLING SPRAY JETS

Piston cooling spray jet assemblies are installed in the


block. There is one spray jet assembly for each
piston. Each spray jet has two orifices or holes
to send two streams of oil up to the piston. One
spray orifice (top arrow) sends oil up through a
vertical passage in the piston to an annular
chamber behind the rings for cooling. This oil
also goes into the piston pin bores in the piston
for lubrication.

The other spray orifice (lower arrow) sends oil up to


the bottom of the piston crown for cooling. This
oil also gives lubrication (by splash) to the
connecting rod bearing.

PISTON AND ROD SERIES

This piston is made of two pieces that are fastened


together with an electron beam weld. The
skirt, pin bores, oil ring groove area and
inner part of the crown are an aluminum
alloy forging. The outer part of the crown,
containing the cast iron band with top and
intermediate ring grooves and oil cooling
gallery, is an aluminum alloy casting. The
top crown surface has an anodized coating
to protect the aluminum surface from high
combustion temperatures.

The piston has two different diameters. The diameter


from the top of the top ring groove to the top
of the piston is smaller than the bottom of the
top ring groove to the bottom of the piston.
This smaller diameter of the piston is space for
carbon deposit through normal engine
operation. Because of this space, the carbon
will not contact the cylinder walls.

NOTE: The anodized top surface must be protected


from glass beading when cleaning the piston. See

PISTON RINGS

Three (3) rings are used on each piston. There are two
compression rings and one oil ring.

The top and center rings are keystone section rings.


The top ring has a chrome carbide barrel face
with the mark UP-1. The center ring has a
chrome-faced rails with a steel spring behind it.

Use the ring expander (6V4020) and install each ring


in its correct location with the UP side toward
the top of the piston. Install the oil control ring
over the spring with the gap in the spring 180°
away from the gap in the oil control ring.
Position each ring so the ring gap is a minimum
of 60° away from the ring gap of the next ring.

Each piston has an annular, hollow chamber


(doughnut-shaped space) case inside the piston
above the piston pin and at the same level as
the piston ring grooves. Also there are two
vertical oil passages in the bottom of the
piston which go up and into the annular
chamber (see large openings). One passage
sends oil to the annular chamber from the
piston cooling spray jets; the other passage
drains the oil from the annular chamber.

When the piston is installed, one passage is always in


the correct location to get the oil from one of
the piston cooling jets. If the piston is turned
180 degrees, the other (opposite) passage is in
the correct location for the position cooling jet.

The four smaller holes seen in the bottom of the


piston are oil passages for the oil control ring.

CONNECTING RODS
The piston pin end (small end) of the connecting rod
has a “teepee” shape. The small end has a
taper from the top of the rod to the bottom end
of the pin bearing. The piston pin bearing also
has a taper (and a chamfer) on each end. When
a new pin bearing is installed in an earlier rod,
the bearing must be installed with both the oil
hole and the short length of the bearing UP.
This will put the oil hole in alignment with the
oil passage in the top of the rod and the taper
of the bearing in alignment with the taper of
the rod. Later rods have grooves to allow oil in
from the sides.

One side of the bore in the rod and the rod cap has a
chamfer (upper arrow). The other side of the
bore has a flat surface (lower arrow). When
the connecting rod is installed on the
Click Here to crankshaft, the chamfer side must be put

This puts the rod and cap chamfer side of each rod
(see arrows) near the front and rear radius of
the crank journal. The flat surface on the side
of the first rod on the journal will be against
the flat surface on the side of the second rod
on the journal.

The caps are held on the rods with four (4) 12-point
bolts. The bolts go through the rod cap, into
the end of the rod at an angle. This design
makes the end of the rod smaller. With the
bolts and cap removed from the rod, the large
end of the rod can go up through the liner bore
to remove the piston and connecting rod
assembly from the block.

PROCEDURE TO TIGHTEN
CONNECTING ROD BOLTS

The procedure used to tighten the connecting rod bolts


is different than earlier engines because each rod
has four (4) bolts and they are tightened in
number sequence. The bolts are tightened in
sequence to get the necessary rod and cap
seating, bearing crush, and bolt tension (stretch).
The sequence is No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No.
3, No. 4. No. 1 can be any of the four bolts.

ROD BOLT TIGHTENING PROCEDURE


Lubricate each bolt before assembly as recommended
in the Specification Section of the service
manual. The torque-turn tighten method is used
to tighten the bolts to get the correct tension
(stretch).

Install the bolts and tighten each bolt to 90 ± 5 Nm (65


± 4 lb. ft.). Tighten two bolts on one side of the
cap, then two bolts on the other side of the cap.
Tighten the last two bolts again to
90 ± 5 Nm (65 ± 4 lb. ft.).

As the third bolt is tightened, it will start the crush of


the bearings. When the fourth is tightened, it
will complete the crush of the bearing. Also,
when the fourth bolt is tightened, the third bolt
will become loose. Because of this, it is
necessary to tighten the third and fourth bolts
again to 90 ± 5 Nm (65 ± 4 lb. ft.).

TORQUE-TURN TIGHTEN IN NUMBER


SEQUENCE

After the bolts have been tightened to specifications


once, and the third and fourth bolts are
tightened again to specification, place a mark
on the top of each bolt and the rod cap. Then
turn each bolt in any sequence 90 degrees plus
or minus 5 degrees more. This torque-turn
tighten procedure will put the necessary
tension on each rod bolt.

Follow the same procedure to tighten the bolts of the


second connecting rod.

another on the end of the crankshaft to aid in
assembly. There are two flywheel bolts placed
close together so the flywheel will go on only
one way.

These are some of the tools used for installation of


(Hydrodynamic Groove Type) seals on later
engines.* At the left is the installer. To its
right is the locator with a nut on top.

NOTE: The new seal groups are quite different


from the former standard lip-type seals. The
difference is the hydrodynamic grooves in the
sealing lip of the new seal. These grooves in the seal
lip move lubrication oil back into the engine
crankcase as the crankshaft turns. Because of the
seal lip design, the front seal for an engine is
different from the rear seal group. The installed
position of the seal lip grooves is important
because the grooves are very sensitive to the
direction of crankshaft rotation.

Each seal is marked with an arrow to show the


direction of shaft rotation for which the seal
can be used. If a specific seal group is
installed on the wrong end of an engine,
lubrication oil can actually by taken out of an
engine because the grooves in the seal lip are
in the wrong direction in relation to crankshaft
rotation. Special handling procedures and seal
installation instructions for specific engines are
given on the pages that follow.

*These engines have a seal bore in the flywheel of


front cover.

PISTON COOLING JETS


When an engine is operated and the oil pressure is
more than 140 kPa (20 psi), piston cooling jets
direct oil toward the bottom of the piston to
decrease the piston and ring temperatures.

If a jet assembly is plugged, seizure of the piston may


result in a very short time because of the
increase in temperature.

The left (upper arrow) spray orifice sends oil to the


passage in the piston that goes to the annular
chamber behind the piston ring grooves. The
right (lower arrow) spray orifice sends oil up
to the bottom crown of the piston.

NOTE: The piston and connecting rod assembly

and cylinder liner are removed so the piston cooling
jets can be seen as they are installed in the engine.

Remove the two bolts and the retainer to remove the


piston cooling jet assembly.

The retainer plate fits into a notch (position slot) in


the cooling jet assembly and holds it in the
correct position. The retainer plate puts the
piston cooling jet assembly in the correct
position so that the two orifices send (spray)
the oil to the piston in the correct direction.

Remember, the orifice must be in alignment so the oil


goes up through the vertical passage to the
annular chamber (reference slides 55 through
58). Oil from the other orifice must hit the
bottom of the piston crown.

can be removed through the side cover
opening.

NOTICE
When piston cooling jet assembly is installed, make
sure the spray jet orifices are up toward the bottom
of the piston.

Important! A special torque must be used for spray


jet assembly bolts. This torque is very critical.
Torque each bolt to 22 ± 3 Nm (30 ± 4 lb. ft.).

The sequence valves (6) are in the oil passages in the


front and rear of the block. The piston cooling
jets are in the oil manifold (8) of the block.

The sequence valves stop the flow of oil from the


main oil manifold to the manifold for the
piston cooling jets until the oil pressure
increases to approximately 140 pKa (20 psi) at
engine start up. In addition, they keep the oil
pressure in the main oil manifold above 140
kPa (20 psi) when the oil is hot and the engine
is running at low idle.

With the cover off, we can see the:


1. oil supply passage (left arrow) from the main
oil manifold
2. sequence valve plunger (center arrow); and
3. sequence valve cover (right arrow) with oil
chamber

You can see that when the cover is installed, the angle
of the chamber will fit (extend) over oil supply
passage. This puts the oil (force) on top of the
plunger.

Oil from the main passage (5) comes out of the oil
supply passage (left arrow) into the cover oil
chamber (shown in slide 92). The oil will push
against the valve plunger and put the spring
(right arrow) under compression. As the
pressure gets to 100 to 160 kPa (14.5 to 23.5
psi), the plunger will move in, start to open the
passage and send oil to the piston cooling jet
manifold. As the pressure increases to 170 to
230 kPa (24.5 to 33.5 psi), the sequence valve
will be fully open for oil to go into the cooling
jet manifold.

Both the front and rear sequence valves operate the


same.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The factory uses a strainer in the lubrication system


in this location on the engine.* It is removed
before shipping the engine.

There is a screen inside the engine oil pan that


performs this function during normal engine
operation. It is serviced by removing a cover.

*This filter may also be used during dealer


dynamometer tests. It should be removed before the
engine is placed in service.

FOLLOW-UP TRAINING

Follow this presentation with skill training in the shop on the 3512
Engine. Give each serviceman training in those different jobs (tasks) on
the engine he is expected to do in the shop or field. Be sure training
includes all jobs which are a requirement for servicing the 3512 Engine
completely.

NOTE: The list of skills in the presentation are jobs in the Service
Manual. These skills are needed to service and repair the 3512 Engine to
keep engine performance at its best and to keep exhaust emission within
acceptable limits.

Some of the different skills (jobs) servicemen must be able to do on the


3512 Engine to give good service area as follows:

1. install camshaft bearings and camshaft


2. install spacer plate, gaskets, seal and cylinder head
3. remove and install crankshaft drive gear
4. install piston rings and piston pin
5. install piston in cylinder bore and position a FRONT and
REAR rod on the crank journal correctly
6. install main bearing caps and use the correct bolt tightening
sequence
7. install rod bearing caps and use the correct bolt tightening
sequence; and
8. remove and install a crankshaft wear sleeve and seal
adapter assembly

CONSTRUCTION & MAJOR REPAIRS

Give instruction on these skills in the shop on the engine. Keep small the
number of servicemen that you train at one time. The on-the-job training
method is best for correct learning and complete understanding.

Training must include a DEMONSTRATION of each different job (clearly


showing each step) by the instructor. Then the serviceman must DO THE
JOB (practice) until he can do it correctly.

Make the training plan and give the training using the procedures for each
job which is given in the SERVICE MANUAL and other service literature.

(A serviceman has learned to do a job when he can do the job correctly one
time with no help.)
