1. In order to maximize the life of a remanufactured engine, a few basic principles should be followed when assembling it.
2. Absolute cleanliness must be observed. Assembly must be done in a clean room, with clean hands and clean tools.
3. Always replace gaskets, retaining plates, seals, self-locking nuts, etc.
4. Work must be done consistently and without haste.
5. Check that all nuts and bolts are clean and in good condition. It is recommended to replace all spring washers, lock washers, etc.
6. In addition to the usual working tools, you will need a large supply of clean rags, a can of engine oil and a torque wrench.
7. A torque wrench is absolutely essential for this type of engine, as most of the engine and gearbox components are made of light alloys and can be easily damaged under heavy loads.
