Engines of 1.7 l DOHC

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Carefully clean all components and attentively study a condition of rotors, cases and pump covers. In case of revealing of damages and signs of excessive deterioration replace defective components. If the pump case in the block of cylinders has marks, address for consultation to experts of a firm car repair shop of company Opel.

  1. If the condition of components is found satisfactory, establish rotors in the case of pump assemblage. With the help щупов лезвийного type measure size of backlashes between an external rotor and the case of the pump and a backlash between teeths of an internal and external rotor. Measure size axial люфта rotors and check up a cover plane. If results of measurements fall outside the limits admissible ranges (Specifications see), replace the worn out components.


  1. If removed редукционный the valve, check up freedom of moving of the piston and smoothness of its return under the influence of effort developed by a spring. In case of need replace the valve in gathering.

Engines of 2.0 l

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Turn out fixing bolts and uncover the pump from the interior of a chain cover.
  1. With marker mark adjusting positions of both rotors.
  1. Take rotors from the pump case.


  1. Turn out заглушку the valve of adjustment of pressure of oil in the basis of the case of the pump.
  1. Take a spring, the plug and плунжер, — try to remember adjusting position of components. Remove with заглушки the valve a sealing ring.


  1. Turn out заглушку редукционного the valve from a back part of a cover of a chain, — the valve is established over three bolts in a back part of a cover.
  1. Take from a cover a spring and плунжер, — try to remember adjusting position of components. Remove with заглушки a sealing ring.
