WARNING — All parts on the Iltis Canadian Series are dimensioned in the metric system. During any maintenance procedures, all replacement fasteners must have the same measurement and strength as those removed. (Numbers on the heads of metric bolts and on the surfaces of metric nuts indicate their strength). Mismatched or incorrect fasteners may result in personal injury, damage or malfunction of components. Therefore, fasteners removed from the engine should be saved for re-use in the same location where possible. When fasteners are unsatisfactory for re-use, care should be taken to select a replacement that matches the original.

Types of Overhaul

3.Types of information in this manual include removal, disassembly, cleaning, inspection, measurements, repair, adjustments and assembly.

Manual Organization

Introduction

1.To perform a major overhaul or other extensive repairs, the complete assembly should be mounted on an overhaul stand and the various assemblies removed.

2.Parts removed from an individual assembly should be kept together to be available for inspection and reassembly to the same assembly. Those items having machined faces, which might be easily damaged by steel or concrete, should be stored on suitable wooden racks or blocks, or on a separate dolly.

3.For inspection, repair and overhaul of all engine components, including the coolant pump, alternator, starter, oil pan and oil pump,carburetor and distributor, refer to "Truck, Utility, Light, 4x4 Military Design, Iltis Canadian Series, Maintenance Manual", CFTO C-30-108-000/MP-001.

4.When a decision to use a new component is made, the following general factors should be considered:

  1. degree of wear of the old component;
  2. time required for reconditioning an old component compared with the cost of a new component;
  3. component deterioration (usually electrical) due to length of service time and operating environment;
  4. hours in service; and
  5. the next overhaul period.

Cleaning

5.General — After each subassembly is removed and disassembled, the individual parts should be cleaned. Thorough cleaning of each part is absolutely necessary before it can be satisfactorily inspected. Before removing any of the subassemblies from the engine (but after removal of the electrical equipment), the exterior of the engine should be thoroughly cleaned.

6.Steam Cleaning — A steam cleaner can be used to remove heavy accumulations of grease and dirt from the exterior of the engine and its subassemblies after removal of the electrical equipment.

7.Solvent Tank Cleaning — A tank of sufficient size to accommodate the largest part that will require cleaning (usually the cylinder block) should be provided and provisions made to heat the cleaning solvent between 82 and 93°C.

8.Fill the tank with a commercial heavy duty solvent and heat between 82 and 93°C. Lower large parts directly into the tank with a hoist. Place small parts in a wire mesh basket and lower them into the tank. Immerse the parts long enough to loosen all grease and dirt.

9.Rinsing Bath — Provide another tank of similar size to the solvent cleaning tank, containing hot water for rinsing the parts.

10.Drying — Parts may be dried with compressed air. However, the heat transferred to the part from the hot tanks will frequently completely dry the parts without the use of compressed air.

11.Machined Surface Cleaning — Make sure that mating surfaces are thoroughly clean and free from such foreign matter as gasket debris.

12.Rust Preventive — If parts are not used immediately after cleaning, dip them in a suitable rust preventive compound. Remove the rust preventive compound before installing the parts.

Inspection

13.The purpose of parts inspection is to deter mine which parts can be used and which must be replaced. Although the overhaul specifications given throughout the manual will aid in determining which parts should be replaced, considerable judgement must be exercised by the inspector.

14.Many service replacement parts are available in various undersizes or oversizes as well as standard sizes. Also, service kits for reconditioning certain parts, and service sets, which include all of the parts necessary to complete a particular repair job, are available.

15.In addition to measuring the used parts after cleaning, parts shall be carefully inspected for cracks, scoring, chipping and other defects.

Assembly

16.Following cleaning and inspection, use new parts as determined by the inspection.

17.Use of proper equipment and tools makes the job progress faster and produces better results. A suitable working space with proper lighting is essential.

18.Keep working space, equipment, tools, assemblies and parts clean at all times. The area where assembly takes place should, if possible, be away from the disassembly and cleaning operation. Any machining operation should be as far as possible from the assembly area.

19.After removal and cleaning, particular attention should be paid to the storage of parts and subassemblies. If there is any doubt as to the cleanliness of stored parts, they should be cleaned before use.

20.All assembly operations and measurements require great care and absolute cleanliness if accurate results are to be obtained.

Work Safety

21.The following safety precautions shall be strictly observed:

  1. When using compressed air to clean a component, use a safe amount. Too high an air pressure could result in personal injury or damage to a component.
  2. Avoid the use of carbon tetrachloride as a cleaning agent because of the harmful vapour that it releases. Use perchlorethylene or trichlorethylene. However, while less toxic than other chlorinated solvents, use these cleaning agents with caution. Be sure the work area is adequately ventilated and use protective gloves, goggles or face shield and apron.
  3. Exercise caution against burns when using oxalic acid to clean the cooling passages of the engine.
  4. Always wear protective gear such as safety glasses, safety shoes and hard hat to provide adequate protection when working under hazardous conditions.
  5. When lifting an assembly, make sure the lifting device is fastened securely. Be sure the item to be lifted does not exceed the capacity of the lifting device.
  6. Use caution when operating power tools.

Figure 2-2-1 — Checking Cylinder Block for FlatnessClick image to enlarge.

1.Flatness Check — To check, proceed as follows:

  1. Ensure the block is clean.
  2. Check the top of the block for flatness through the centre of bores with an accurate straight edge and feeler gauge, see Figure 2-2-1. The surface must not vary more than 0.10 mm longitudinally. If the flatness is not within the above limits, the cylinder block must be resurfaced. The maximum amount that can be cut from an engine block is 0.25 mm. The engine rebuild plate must include the total amount which has been cut from the block.
  3. Check and clean all bolt hole threads and stud threads. Repair as necessary and lubricate.

Figure 2-2-2 — Checking Cylinder Diameter and Degree of Wear
Figure 2-2-2 — Checking Cylinder Diameter and Degree of WearClick image to enlarge.

2.Cylinder Bore — To check, proceed as follows:

  1. Using a cylinder bore gauge, determine the cylinder diameter and degree of wear. Record the readings, see Figure 2-2-2.

NOTE — When checking the cylinder bores, remove the cylinder block from the engine stand, take measurements at three points in each cylinder and at right angles to one another. The first measurement should be made 10 mm from the top. The second measurement should be in the middle of the cylinder, and the third 10 mm from the bottom. Take one set of measurements, first in one direction (e.g., across the width of the engine) and then take a second set of measurements in another direction (e.g., in line with the crankshaft).

  1. Minor variations in cylinder diameter can be corrected by honing. If there is scoring or there are variations of 0.05 mm or more between the measurements in any one cylinder, or a cylinder is worn to more than 0.08 mm over the original or oversized bore, all the cylinders must be rebored and honed to accept the next larger-size piston.

Size Piston Marking Cylnder Bore Honing Diameter
Original Diameter 79.50 mm 79.53 mm
1st Oversize 79.75 mm 79.78 mm
2nd Oversize 80.00 mm 80.03 mm
3rd Oversize 80.50 mm 80.53 mm

Figure 2-2-3 — Cylinder Bore Honing Measurements

  1. Record the largest bore diameter measurement obtained for each cylinder.
  2. Compare these measurements with the honing measurements, see Figure 2-2-3.

NOTE — Rebored cylinders must be honed to obtain a clearance of 0.03 mm between the piston and the cylinder wall.

Figure 2-2-4 — Cylinder Wall Glaze Removed
Figure 2-2-4 — Cylinder Wall Glaze RemovedClick image to enlarge.

  1. Compute the piston clearance between the original pistons and their respective cylinders. Subtract the diameter of the piston, see para. 3, from the maximum diameter of the cylinder.
  2. If the piston clearance exceeds the wear limits, but the cylinders are not worn to a diameter that is 0.04 mm greater than their original or oversize honing measurements, correct the clearance by installing new pistons of the same diameter.
  3. If piston clearance exceeds the wear limits because of cylinder wall wear, the cylinders must be bored and honed to the next oversize measurement and new pistons of the same oversize measurement installed.
  4. If the cylinders have not been rebored, remove the cylinder wall glaze using a (220-grit) hone. Remove the glaze only so that the rings will properly seat. Remove as little metal as possible, see Figure 2-2-4.

Figure 2-2-6 — Checking Piston Ring Side Clearance
Figure 2-2-6 — Checking Piston Ring Side ClearanceClick image to enlarge.

3.Pistons and Rings — To check, proceed as follows:

  1. Check the pistons for wear. Measure the diameter of the piston at right angles to the piston pin at a point approximately 10 mm from the lower edge of the piston skirt, see Figure 2-2-5. Compare the measurements obtained with the original piston diameter marked on the piston crown. Comparison will give an indication of the extent to which the piston is worn. Maximum wear is 0.04 mm. However, it can only be determined whether the piston is suitable for reuse by also measuring the cylinder bore.
  2. Using feeler gauges, check the side clearance of all the piston rings, see Figure 2-2-6. Piston ring side clearances should be 0.02 to 0.05 mm with new parts. When installing new rings, ensure the side clearance is not less than specified. The maximum wear limit for old rings is 0.15 mm.
  3. Using a piston ring remover, remove the rings from the pistons. If rings are to be reused, they should be tagged or otherwise identified so that they can be reinstalled in the same order and on the same pistons during reassembly.

NOTE — If rings are to be reused, care must be taken to prevent breakage during removal.

Figure 2-2-7 — Measurement of Ring End Gap
Figure 2-2-7 — Measurement of Ring End GapClick image to enlarge.

  1. Check the ring end gap in the cylinders by pushing each ring about 15 mm into the bottom of the cylinder. Measure the gap in the ring, see Figure 2-2-7. New ring gaps should be 0.30 to 0.45 mm for the compression rings and 0.25 to 0.40 mm for the oil scraper ring. If the gap is too narrow, enlarge it with a file or oil stone. Used rings must not have a ring gap larger than 1.00 mm. When replacing rings, they must be of the same group size as the pistons and cylinders.
  2. If reusing old pistons, clean the ring grooves with a ring groove cleaning tool.

4.Piston Pin — Check the piston pin fit in each connecting rod. If the clearance exceeds 0.04 mm, replace the rod and pin or fit a new pin and rod bushing. Hone the bushing to obtain a clearance of 0.01 to 0.02 mm. Check rod alignment after fitting new bushings.

Figure 2-2-10 — Crankshaft Repair Stage ChartClick image to enlarge.

5.Crankshaft — To check, proceed as follows:

  1. Using a micrometer, measure the crankshaft main bearing and connecting rod journals. Take measurements at each side of the journal to check for taper, see Figure 2-2-8.
  2. Check eccentricity. Using a micrometer, take two measurements of the journals, one at 90° from the first, or place the crankshaft on “V” blocks and check run-out with a dial indicator, see Figure 2-2-9.
  3. Record the measurements of each journal and compare to Figure 2-2-10.

NOTE — If the journals are rough, scored, tapered, or exceed 0.03 mm out of round, the crankshaft must be replaced or reconditioned to the next repair stage.

Intermediate Shaft Bearings

6.Inspection — If the bearings are worn so that the copper backing shows through the silvery bearing surface, drive the bearings out.

Intake Manifold

7.Inspection — To inspect, proceed as follows:

  1. Using a straight edge, check the mating surfaces of the manifold for distortion. If necessary, surface grind until flat.
  2. Clean around the ports and ensure the mating surfaces are smooth.

Exhaust Manifold

8.Inspection — To inspect, proceed as follows:

  1. Inspect the manifold for cracks.
  2. Using a straight edge, check the mounting surfaces for distortion. If necessary, surface grind until flat.

Flywheel

9.Inspection — To inspect, proceed as follows:

  1. Inspect the flywheel clutch surface for cracks and burns and replace, if necessary.
  2. Inspect the ring gear for broken or chipped teeth and replace, if necessary.

Clutch Disc and Pressure Plate

Figure 2-2-11 — Pressure Plate Distortion CheckClick image to enlarge.

10.Inspection — To inspect, proceed as follows:

  1. Check the contact surface of the pressure plate for signs of heat and cracks.
  2. Using a straight edge and feeler gauge, inspect the contact surface of the pressure plate for wear and distortion, see Figure 2-2-11. If wear or distortion exceeds 0.30 mm, replace the pressure plate.
  3. Check the pressure plate cover for cracks and ensure the rivets are tight and undamaged. Replace the pressure plate, if necessary.
  4. Check the diaphragm spring fingers at the location of the throw-out bearing contact for scoring and grooving. If score marks exceed 0.30 mm in depth, replace the pressure plate.
  1. Check the friction material of the clutch disc for wear. The minimum allowable distance above the rivet heads is 2.0 mm.
  2. Check the disc for run-out. Measure 2.50 mm from the outer edge of the disc. The maximum allowable run-out is 0.50 mm.
  3. Check the disc for loose or broken rivets and replace, if necessary.

Oil Pan Gasket Surfaces

Figure 2-3-1 — Crankshaft AssemblyClick image to enlarge.

1.Crankshaft — To assemble and install, see Figure 2-3-1 and proceed as follows:

NOTE — Ensure the crankshaft (4), bearing shells (3), bearing caps (1) and saddles are clean and the anti-rotation tabs engage in the notches in the saddles. The centre bearing is a flanged thrust bearing (2). Ensure that the shells with oil holes are placed in the saddles of the engine block.

  1. Using the original bearings, original-size new bearings, or undersize bearings, depending on the condition of the crankshaft, install the upper bearing shells (with oil holes and lubrication grooves) in the saddles of the engine block.
  2. Place the crankshaft in the block.
  3. Place the lower bearing shells in the bearing caps.
  4. Place a small piece of 0.025 – 0.076 mm Plastigage on each main journal.

NOTE — If checking used bearings or new bearings installed in a high mileage engine, use Plastigage which measures clearances from 0.050 to 0.150 mm.

  1. Install the bearing caps over the journals. Ensure the #1 cap is at the front and all the numbers are facing away from the intermediate shaft.
  2. Install the bearing cap bolts and torque to 35 N•m (25 ft lb).

NOTE — Do not turn the crankshaft.

Figure 2-3-2 — Measurement of Crankshaft Bearing Clearance
Figure 2-3-2 — Measurement of Crankshaft Bearing ClearanceClick image to enlarge.

  1. Remove the bolts and bearing caps.
  2. Using the Plastigage package, measure the bearing clearance as indicated by the squash of the Plastigage, see Figure 2-3-2. The clearance should be 0.03 to 0.08 mm for new bearings. If clearance for used bearings exceeds 0.17 mm, replace the bearings and repeat steps d. through h. If the clearance still exceeds 0.17 mm , replace or recondition the crankshaft.

CAUTION — To prevent damage to the journal, do not scrape off the Plastigage.

Axial play is excessive if clearance is 0.37 mm or greater. Excessive clearance can usually be corrected by replacing the centre main bearing.
  8. Remove the old seals from the crankshaft seal carriers and clean the carriers of any gasket material.
  9. Install new seals in the carriers so that the seal lips will face in when installed.
  10. Install new gaskets to the carriers and secure the rear carrier to the block with the six cap screws and washers. Torque to 10 N•m (7 ft lb).
  11. Install a new gasket to the front carrier and secure it to the block with the three cap screws. Torque to 10 N•m (7 ft lb). Do not install cap screws in the top and right centre holes as they are for the timing cover cap screws, see Figure 2-3-4.

Piston Assemblies

2.Piston Pin/Connecting Rod — To assemble and install, proceed as follows:

NOTE — If the pistons or connecting rods are replaced, all four must be of the same weight class. Connecting rod weight classes are designated by a number on the rod cap. Pistons and connecting rods come in sets of four. Unmarked pistons must be within 10 grams of the weight of the other pistons.
