22

Push in MR/PLD unit pump (7) up to the screw heads

Rotate crankshaft using cranking device (in its direction of rotation) until pump cam on camshaft pushes the MR/PLD unit pump (7) out of crankcase.

 If MR/PLD unit pump (7) is not pushed out: 

Lever out MR/PLD unit pump (7) carefully at housing flange.

 A tight fitting MR/PLD unit pump (7) must not be pressed out at solenoid valve.

23

Remove bolts (4) and take out MR/PLD unit pump (7)

 Installation:

- Carefully remove dirt and paint residues on MR/PLD unit pump sealing surface (7) and on crankcase.

- Coat unit pump body, O-rings and socket in crankcase with a light layer of oil.

- Do not tilt MR/PLD unit pump (7) when inserting into crankcase.

- Carefully press in the MR/PLD unit pump (7) by hand, pushing against the spring pressure and continuing until the gap is approx. 4 mm. If the unit pump lobe on the camshaft is pointing upwards, making it impossible to press the MR/PLD unit (7) in deeply enough, continue turning engine roughly a revolution using turning/blocking device.

24

Remove O-rings (5, 6) on MR/PLD unit pump (7)

 Installation: Clean radial groove in unit pump body.

 The O-rings (5, 6) must not be installed twisted in grooves to avoid leaks.

25

Check roller on the roller tappet

 The MR/PLD unit pump (7) can be used again if there are only a minimal number of score marks or scratches on it.

If deep scoring, scratches or sanding spots are present: 

Replace MR/PLD unit pump (7)

 The unit pump body must not be disassembled.
