not to damage the bearings with the cam
lobes.

in their originally fitted sequence.

ring gear teeth to prevent rotation.
15 Remove the engine rear plate.
16 Turn the cylinder block so that it is
standing upside down.
17 Unbolt and remove the crankshaft rear oil
seal carrier. Note the sump fixing studs.
18 The main bearing caps should be marked
1, 2 and 3 but if they are not, centre punch
them and note which way round they are
located.
19 Unscrew the main bearing cap bolts
progressively.
20 Remove the bearing caps and half shells.
If the shell bearings are to be used again,
keep them with their respective caps.
21 Note the semi-circular thrust washers on
either side of the centre main bearing which
control crankshaft endfloat.
22 Lift the crankshaft from the crankcase.
23 Remove the bearing shells from the
crankcase and mark them as to position if
they are to be used again.
17 Cylinder head - dismantling
and decarbonising

1 The exhaust manifold and rocker gear will
have been removed from the cylinder head
during removal (see Section 7).
2 The valves should now be removed using a
universal valve spring compressor.
3 Compress the first valve spring and extract
the split cotters.
4 Gently release the compressor, take off the
spring retaining cap, the valve spring and the
spring seat. Remove the valve. Keep the valve
with its associated components together and
in numbered sequence so that they can be
returned to their original positions.
5 A small box with divisions is useful for this
purpose. Remove and discard the valve stem
oil seals.
6 Remove the other valves in a similar way.
7 Bearing in mind that the cylinder head is of

If the valve spring refuses to
compress, do not apply
excessive force, but remove
the compressor and place a
piece of tubing on the spring retainer
and strike it a sharp blow to release the
collets from the valve stem. Refit the
compressor and resume operations
when the collets should come out.
