Preliminary work
1. The crankcase must be prepared for installation (dowel sleeves, caps and pins screwed in).
Crankcase On Engine Support:
Note:
^ The engine must be disassembled in accordance with the detailed descriptions in the Technical Manual!
^ This chapter does not provide details or further information. Further details can be found in the relevant individual descriptions.
2. Attach top section of crankcase to engine support. To do this, use the four screws for mounting elements 9590 and tighten them slightly.
Assembling engine
Caps And Oil Spray Nozzles:
Note:
^ The engine must be disassembled in accordance with the detailed descriptions in the Technical Manual!
^ This chapter does not provide details or further information. Further details can be found in the relevant individual descriptions.
Note: Four oil spray nozzle are installed in the M48/50 engine instead of the caps used in the M48/00 engine.
1. Fit caps on crankcase. When doing so, make sure that new O-rings are fitted. Tighten the Tightening torque 7.5 ft. lbs..
Colour Marking On Bearing Shell:
Note: The bearing shells are available in various tolerance classes. The classes are indicated by the color marking on the outside. The color marking must match the corresponding color dot on the crankshaft.
Inserting The Bearing Shells:
2. Insert the bearing shells with the lubricating groove into the upper part of the crankcase --> Inserting the bearing shells. Make sure the twist locks are positioned correctly. Then lightly oil the bearing locations.
Inserting The Sickle-Shaped Washers:
3. Insert the sickle-shaped washer (make sure of axial bearing play). To do this, insert the two sickle-shaped washers to the left and right on crankshaft bearing no. 3. Apply some grease (000.043.204.17) between the crankshaft bearing and the sickle washers so that the sickle washers do not fall down. Each of the lubricating grooves of the sickle-shaped washers must face outwards --> Inserting the sickle-shaped washers.
Crankshaft Holding Bridges:
WARNING: The crankshaft is heavy!
^ There is a danger of hands being crushed when inserting the crankshaft.
--> Hold the very outside of the crankshaft.
--> Wear gloves.
4. Insert crankshaft. The connection flange must point towards the back of the engine. Then secure the crankshaft from falling down using holding bridges 9677. Attach the holding bridges at bearing locations 3 and 5 --> Crankshaft holding bridges. Then screw the fastening screw of the front pulley into the crankshaft until they just make contact.
5. Turn crankcase by 180° on the assembly support.
Note:
^ The pistons must already be pre-fitted (pistons, piston rings, connecting rods and fastening material) before performing the next step.
^ The required bearing shells must be inserted in the connecting rods.
^ The connecting rod is symmetrical and can be fitted either on the piston so that the number on the connecting rod is facing outwards or inwards, or the tolerance class designation of the piston does not have to be on the same side as the connecting rod code. The direction of travel arrow is on the same side as the connecting rod code -A- as is evident on the piston shown. This can be installed as standard on one cylinder bank side on the same side as shown here, and on the other cylinder bank side, the connecting rod code is on the opposite side. The connecting rod code is installed to the exhaust side as standard.
Connecting Rod Code And Direction Of Travel Arrow:
^ When installing the piston in the crankcase, the direction of travel arrow must point in the direction of travel.
Connecting Rod Code "A":
^ The code on the connecting-rod big end and connecting-rod bearing cap must be on the same side and at the exhaust side.
Turning The Crankshaft:
6. Install piston. To do this, turn the crankshaft with a wrench (a/f 27) until the corresponding lift pin is pointing straight downwards.
7. Lightly oil cylinder and piston.
Tensioning The Piston Rings:
8. Align piston-ring set (offset by 120°) and compress piston rings using piston ring restraining strap for 944 - S2 and Boxster and 911 Carrera (996) 57.
Direction Of Travel Arrow:
9. Place piston onto cylinder from above and push into cylinder. When doing so, make sure that the direction of travel arrow is pointing forwards (in direction of travel). -arrow-
