The toolset needed for crankshaft balancer replacement comprises crankshaft balancer remover (J 41816), crankshaft end protector (J 41816-2),
Flywheel holding tool (J 42386-A), crankshaft balancer and sprocket installer (J 41665) and angle meter (J 45059). The replacement process starts with belt removal from the air conditioning system unless vehicle has no air conditioning system. The beginner stage of replacement starts by taking off the lower
Fan Shroud and then the
Starter motor from the work area. Use the Flywheel holding tool (J 42386-A) to fit its teeth with the engine Flywheel teeth properly. No pre-marking is necessary for the crankshaft balancer before it gets removed. Use the Flywheel holding tool (J 42386-A) by mounting one m10-1.5 x 120 mm bolt and one m10-1.5 x 45 mm bolt while tightening them to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). The crankshaft balancer bolt will maintain its use during the installation process. The crankshaft balancer remover (J 41816) along with the crankshaft end protector (J 41816-2) should be used to remove the balancer while cleaning and inspecting it when possible. Reposition the balancer directly around the crankshaft after which you should use the crankshaft balancer and sprocket installer (J 41665) for installation. Begin by spacing out the installation tool and apply a wrench to the hexoured threaded rod until the balancer starts moving with clock-wise nut rotation. Twist the installation tool in reverse motion and proceed with tightening the balancer until it has reached its complete position. The crankshaft balancer bolt from previous installation should be fitted followed by torquing to 330 nm (240 ft. Lbs.) then removing the bolt. Investigate the distance between crankshaft nose and balancer bore to measure between 2.4 - 4.48 mm (0.094 - 0.176 inch) recess. Recheck the installation following procedure measurements; carry out additional installation when needed. Use the angle meter (J 45059) to secure the new crankshaft balancer bolt at 140 degrees but start by tightening it to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). To finish the repair replace the Starter motor followed by the lower Fan Shroud then install the accessory
Drive Belt (if A/C is not present) and a/c Drive Belt (if A/C is part of the system) before performing the crankshaft position system variation learn procedure.
