Go there after you have completed all the steps described on this page.

How to prepare to build the engine?

Installation of the engine takes place in the garage on the stand by the wall.

PC

Remember thatthe engine won’t break down if it accidentally falls off.

Place the toolbox on the tabletop for easy and quick access.

Block, Crankshaft and Camshaft

Start from the main base - engine BLOCK and the CRANKSHAFT.

PC

Combine these parts together at your workstation.

To twist this pair together you will need three parts called the MAIN BEARING.

Each bearing is held in two nuts of size 9.

PC

It is worthwhile to insert the CAMSHAFT into the block and screw it with two nuts of size 5.

Piston, Head Gasket and Cylinder Head

Now it’s time for four PISTONS.

Each of them is screwed with two nuts of size 7, visible from the crankshaft side.

PC

Then place the HEAD GASKET on the block without any screwing.

The CYLINDER HEAD comes on top of it, which you screw with ten size 7 nuts.

Screw it with five 8mm nuts.

PC

Exposed valves are covered with the ROCKER COVER.

Tighten them with six 7mm nuts.

Header and Carburator

Attach the exhaust manifold to the header of the engine.

My Summer Car

Tighten it with five 8mm nuts.

Attach the CARBURATOR to the exhaust manifold.

Screw it with four 8mm nuts.

Camshaft Gear, Timing Chain and Timing Cover

Time for CAMSHAFT GEAR and water pump.

Turn the engine sideways and attach the CAMSHAFT GEAR.

Screw it with a 10mm key.NOTE - in a moment you will have to set it properly.

SETTING- you will find aspecial marking on the engine block, a bladeindicating approximately 10 o’clock.

The same blade can be found on the Camshaft gear.

Mount the CRANKSHAFT PULLEY on the cover and tighten it with one screw of 11 mm size.

Mount WATER PUMP PULLEY on the pump and fix it with four 7mm screws.

Distributor, Oil Filter and Fuel Pump

Rotate the engine with the wider side to yourself.

load the DISTRIBUTOR ignition equipment on it.

Use a screwdriver to tighten this part.

Later you will have to adjust the ignition this way.

It’s time for the OIL FILTER.

Use a new unit from the store - do not use the used part from the garage.

The oil filter does not require keys, mount it using the mouse wheel.

Mount the FUEL PUMP next to it and screw it on with two 7mm nuts.

Sparkplugs

Insert the spark plugs into the four holes in the head of the engine.

You will find them in a sparkplug box that can be purchased in the store.

fire up the box with the F key each time to remove one spark plug.

you could screw them to the block with a special SPARKPLUG WRENCH key.

Alternator

Time for the ALTERNATOR.

Install it right next to the water pump.

Screw it with two nuts - one 7mm, the other 10mm.

There’s a screw to regulate, but don’t touch it yet.

Place the alternator belt on the prepared parts.Stay in hands-on mode.

Secure it with eight 7mm and one 13mm nuts, which acts as a drain when replacing the oil.

check that that it is tightened as much as possible.

Rotate the motor block to the smaller side, and attach the ENGINE PLATE.

Secure it with six 7mm bolts.

Connect the three clutch parts together without any screws: CLUTCH COVER PLATE, CLUTCH DISC.

Attach the STARTER and secure it with two 7mm nuts.

Gearbox

It’s time to implement the GEARBOX.

Mount the DRIVE GEARto the gearbox and tighten it with seven 6mm screws.

What should the finished engine look like?

The complex engine is ready to be installed in the car.
