11 0 091 Installing Replacement Engine (S85)

Necessary preliminary tasks: 

NOTE: Use a 5W-30  engine oil for the running-in procedure in a replacement engine.
Running-in engine oil must be changed at 2000 km for a 10W-60  engine oil incl. engine oil filter.

Installation: 

Modifying check valves, refer to memory entries in DME.

In engines where it is not possible to connect check valves, replace the vacuum-controlled check valves with self-opening check valves.

Vacuum lines will then no longer be required.
