Hi all
I am currently in the process of rebuilding a 130 chassis cab and am just about to start putting the engine back together after a crank regrind, hone & new camshaft & bearings.
Anyway according to the overhaul manual the oil pressure relief spring free length should be 68mm so the one I have taken out was only 45mm so I bought a new genuine spring but that is only 55mm, tbh I think it would be a major task to fit a spring 68mm long in there, has anyone across this before and maybe shed some light on it ?
Also in the manual the oil jet tubes supposedly have sealing washers on them but in the parts manual there are none and when I dismantled it there were none there.
I would be gratefull to hear from anyone else has come across these issues when rebuilding a 300tdi ?
