Special tools are listed and illustrated throughout this section
with a complete listing at the beginning of the section. These tools (or their equivalents)
are specially designed to quickly and safely accomplish the operations for which they
are intended. The use of these special tools will also minimize possible damage to
engine components. Some precision measuring tools are required for inspection of certain
critical components. Torque wrenches and a torque angle meter are necessary for the
proper tightening of various fasteners.
To properly service the engine assembly, the following items should be readily
available:
| • | Approved eye protection and safety gloves |
| • | A clean, well-lit, work area |
| • | A suitable parts cleaning tank |
| • | A compressed air supply |
| • | Trays or storage containers to keep parts and fasteners organized |
| • | An adequate set of hand tools |
| • | Approved engine repair stand |
| • | An approved engine lifting device that will adequately support the weight
of the components |
