BATTERY: Disconnect the battery.
When it is fully charged, store it in a
safe place. Before doing this, protect
the terminals against corrosion by ap-
GB
plying an anti-rust spray.
2) INTERNAL PROTECTION
COMBUSTION CHAMBER: Remove
the heating glowplugs from the head,
check the piston is in its lowest stroke
position (lower standstill point), then
spray with Petronas PROT 30 M pro-
tective oil. Repeat the operation for
the other cylinders, then reinstall the
glowplugs.
TURBOCHARGER: Remove the inlet
plug from the pipe that delivers oil to
the turbocharger, and fill with Petronas
PROT 30 M protective oil. Replace the
inlet plug, applying the correct tighten-
ing torque.
ELECTRIC COMPONENTS: Apply anti-
corrosion spray to the electric contacts
and connectors.
AIR SUCTION SYSTEM: check the air
filter is in good condition, and no for-
eign bodies/liquids are present:
•
If the air filter is damaged, replace
it
•
If there are any foreign bodies,
remove them
LUBRICATION SYSTEM: this procedure
must be carried out together with the
injection system protection procedure.
• Using the oil dipstick and check
whether there is engine oil in the
sump.
• Drain the oil from the sump.
• Fill the engine with Petronas PROT 30
M protective oil.

• Check the coolant level (for water-
cooled engines only). The coolant
mixture must be 50% demineralised
or distilled water and 50% Petronas
Paraflu Up (protective radiator fluid
with monoethylene glycol and organic
inhibitor formulation complying with
ASTM D 3306 type 1 Standards).
• Start up the engine and run it until it
reaches the right temperature for wa-
ter-cooled engines (about 70°- 80°C);
for air-cooled engines, run the engine
for about 20 (twenty) minutes.
• With the engine up to temperature,
carry on for about 5 minutes so that
the system components are lubricated.
• Switch off the engine and wait for it to
cool down.
• Drain the oil from the sump.
• Drain off the coolant.
• Check for any fluid leakage (and
make any necessary repairs).
• Disconnect the engine from all the
components used for the test.
