1 Parts of lubrication system

Note

♦ Finding metal shavings or a large quantity of small metal par‐

ticles during engine repair could indicate that the crankshaft
bearings or conrod bearings are damaged. To prevent this
from causing further damage, perform the following repairs:
♦ Thoroughly clean oil channels.
♦ Renew oil spray jets.
♦ Renew engine oil cooler.
♦ Renew oil filter.
♦ The oil level must not be above the max. mark - danger of
damage to catalytic converter!
