Flywheel Holding – Crankshaft Pulley Removal
DT.4150 Flywheel Holding Tool
Locking Pins or Bolts MUST NOT be used to counter-hold the crank or cam whilst releasing or tightening
the crankshaft pulley – use Holding Tool DT.4150 to secure the fl ywheel in place during this application
on Isuzu engines.
Opel Diesel Engines
16DA / 17D / 17DR / X17DTL engines
This range of Opel diesel engines require the following tools from DT.OPEL Timing Kit
or belt replacement applications -
DT.4130 Camshaft Setting Plate
DT.3054-10 Dial Test Indicator
DT.4149 TDC Setting Tool
DT.4298 Flywheel Locking Pin
DT.3054-14 Injection Pump Locking Pin
DT.4150 Flywheel Holding Tool
The age and specifi cation of the engine determines which of the tools will be required –
On earlier 1.6 and 1.7D engines, injection pump and crank TDC timing marks are provided.
However to establish TDC on X17DTL engines up to 1996, DT.4149 TDC Setting Tool is required and from 1997 on, DT.4298 Flywheel Locking Pin is used in place of the DT.4149. On
X17DTL engines from 1998MY DT.3054-14 Locking Pin is required to fi x the injection pump timing position.
–Refer to Application Chart
Camshaft Timing
DT.4130 Camshaft Setting Plate and
DT.3054-10 Dial Test Indicator
To establish correct camshaft timing position, DT.4130 Camshaft Setting Plate is used
with Dial Test Indicator DT.3054-10. The kit includes DT.4130-3 Special Foot which
must be screwed into the dial test indicator plunger, in place of its normal 'domed' end.
Checking Timing
Carry out timing belt tensioning procedure as per vehicle manufacturer's instructions. Belt tension must be correct.
Turn crankshaft in the normal engine direction of rotation to 90 degrees before TDC (1
cylinder). Insert and fi x Dial Test Indicator DT.3054-10 into DT.4130 Setting Plate. DTI shaft
st
must be held securely in Plate. Initially retain the DTI shaft by lightly pinching with Thumbscrew. Unscrew plunger end off the DTI gauge and screw in its place Indicator Special Foot
DT.4130-3. Ensure the foot threads fully up to its shoulders into the DTI.
Fix DT.4130 Plate into the camshaft housing holes, by using the 2 x DT.4130/2 Shoulder Screws, at 1
st
cylinder inlet valve (over 2
nd
cam lobe from front).
Push Plate to the right to rest against the right stop position. The DTI Special Foot should rest on the base
circle of cam, Fig. 1. Release thumbscrew and pre-load the indicator to not more than 0.50mm.
and re-secure the DTI fi rmly in the Plate with thumbscrew.
Set the DTI gauge to zero (datum point)
Fig.1
Push the Plate to the left to rest against the left stop position so that the indicator rests over the cam lobe, Fig. 2.
NOTE: The dial test indicator will now read below the datum point.
