Cylinder head assembly
3
General information
The cylinder head is a single-piece cast iron component. The camshaft is mounted in the cylinder head and
runs in shell bearings. The bearings are pressed into each journal and are lubricated under pressure. Bridge
piece guides have been eliminated as floating valve bridges have been utilised.
Special thermal sleeves manufactured from stainless steel are fitted to the exhaust ports. These reduce the
amount of heat transferred to the cooling system and direct the thermal energy to the turbocharger.
The electronic unit injectors are mounted in stainless steel sleeves which have been pressed into the injector
bores of the cylinder head.
The operations to remove and to fit valve seat inserts and to remove and to fit camshaft bearings are not
included as specialist equipment is required. It is recommended that operators take advantage of the Perkins
service exchange scheme if these procedures become necessary.

Engine turning tool
CH11148
0,38 mm (0.015 in)
0,76 mm (0.030 in)
The tappet clearance is measured between the rocker levers and the top of the valve bridge pieces. The
operation must be done with the engine cold and stopped. Refer also to Operation 3-13, How to check/adjust
the electronic unit injectors.
1 Remove the rocker cover, Operation 3-1.
2 Remove the cover (A2) from the flywheel housing. The top bolt (A1) is the timing bolt.
Caution: If a customer-fitted speed sensor is fitted to the flywheel housing, it must be removed before the
engine turning tool can be inserted.
3 Remove the plug (A3) from the timing bolt location in the flywheel housing and fit the timing bolt.
Note: There are two locations for the timing bolt, one at each side of the flywheel housing. Use the location
that is the most convenient.
4 Insert the engine turning tool, CH11148, into the flywheel housing through the aperture behind the cover
1
(A2). Use a / inch drive ratchet with the turning tool to rotate the engine flywheel in the normal direction of
2
rotation (anti-clockwise when viewed on the flywheel) until the timing bolt engages with the threaded hole in
the flywheel. The piston of number 1 cylinder is now at TDC (top dead centre).
Caution: If the flywheel is turned past the threaded hole, the flywheel must be turned in the opposite direction
for approximately 45 degrees and then back in the normal direction of rotation until the timing bolt engages
with the threaded hole. This is to eliminate backlash.

5 Check the inlet and exhaust valves of the number 1 cylinder. If they are fully closed the piston is on its
compression stroke and the rocker levers can be moved by hand. If the rocker levers can not be moved
because the valves are slightly open, the piston is on its exhaust stroke. If it is on its exhaust stroke, withdraw
the timing bolt and turn the flywheel a further 360 degrees in the normal direction of rotation so that the number
1 cylinder is set to TDC on its compression stroke, then insert again the timing bolt.
6 Before each set of tappet clearances is adjusted, ensure that the roller of the rocker lever is fully against the
camshaft lobe.
7 Use a set of feeler gauges, inserted at the position shown (B3) between the valve bridge piece and the rocker
lever button, to check the tappet clearances for the inlet valves (C1) on cylinders 1, 2 and 4. Adjust the
clearances if necessary. Check the tappet clearance for the exhaust valves (C2) on cylinders 1, 3 and 5, and
adjust the clearances if necessary.

8 Insert the engine turning tool, CH11148, into the flywheel housing through the aperture behind the cover
1
(A2). Use a / inch drive ratchet with the turning tool to rotate the engine flywheel in the normal direction of
2
rotation (anti-clockwise when viewed on the flywheel) until the timing bolt engages with the threaded hole in
the flywheel. The piston of number 1 cylinder is now at TDC (top dead centre). When the number one piston
is at top dead centre on its compression stroke, the mark on the camshaft gear is be aligned with the mark on
the gear case. If the mark is not aligned, withdraw the timing bolt, rotate the crankshaft a further 360 degrees
in the normal direction of rotation and insert the timing bolt again.
Cautions:
If the flywheel is turned past the threaded hole, the flywheel must be turned in the opposite direction for
approximately 45 degrees and then back in the normal direction of rotation until the timing bolt engages
with the threaded hole. This is to eliminate backlash.
Do not rotate the crankshaft with the camshaft gear or any of the idler gears removed and the rocker shaft
assemblies installed. Damage can be caused to the pistons and valves, or to both.
9 Disconnect the lead and remove camshaft timing sensor from behind the top of the gear case.
10 Remove one bolt from the camshaft gear and install the guide stud, GE50019. Remove the five bolts which
remain.
11 Attach a hoist to the camshaft gear and withdraw the gear from the camshaft. Remove the guide stud.
12 Remove three bolts and withdraw the thrust plate, the adaptor plate and the seal assembly.
Note: Take care during removal of the camshaft to ensure that the surfaces of both the camshaft and the
camshaft bearings are not damaged. Use the procedure which follows, together with the relevant special tools,
to avoid damage to the engine and components.
13 Use the bolts of the rocker shaft to retain the cradle tool (B1), GE50018, at the position shown (B).

14 Remove the rear cover (C1), complete with seal (C3).
15 Fit the camshaft guide (D1), GE50017, to the gear case. Do not tighten the bolts for the guide at this stage.
Note: It is necessary to install two pilots, GE50015, on the rear end of the camshaft. The second pilot will
support the rear of the camshaft as it is moved from the cylinder head and into the guide, GE50017.
16 Install a pilot tool, GE50015, into the threaded hole at the rear end of the camshaft. Then attach the second
pilot tool, GE50015, to the first.
17 Withdraw the camshaft until it enters the bore of the camshaft guide. Tighten the bolts which retain the
guide on the gear case.
18 Use the lifting hooks, GE50025, to move the camshaft toward the front of the engine.
Caution: During use of the lifting hooks do not raise the camshaft; the camshaft should be supported by the
cradle, GE50018. If the camshaft is raised, damage to the camshaft bearings can occur.
19 Withdraw the camshaft from the cylinder head just enough for a strap and hoist to be attached. Attach a
suitable strap and hoist to support the camshaft, ensure that the camshaft is kept level and withdraw it from
the cylinder head. The camshaft weighs approximately 39 kg (85 lb).

How to set the backlash for the camshaft gear
Operation 3-11
If the cylinder head or the camshaft is removed, the backlash between the camshaft gear (A1) and the
adjustable idler gear (A2) must be checked and, if necessary, adjusted. The backlash between the camshaft
gear and the adjustable idler gear, and also between the adjustable idler gear (A2) and the main idler gear
(A3), must be 0,25 +/- 0,08 mm (0.010 +/- 0.003 in).
Note: This procedure must be performed before the rocker lever and shaft assemblies are fitted.
1 Remove the main idler gear (A3). Hold the camshaft gear stationary and use a dial test indicator (DTI),
mounted on the gear case, to check the backlash of the adjustable idler gear.
2 Fit the main idler gear (A3), hold the main idler gear stationary and measure the backlash on the adjustable
idler gear.
3 To adjust the backlash, remove the three bolts and thrust plate which retain the adjustable idler gear (A2)
and remove the gear. Loosen the five nuts (B3) and the bolt (B1) which retain the stub axle (B2) and move the
stub axle by the relevant amount. Tighten the nuts and bolt to a torque of 47 +/- 9 Nm (35 +/- 7 lbf ft).
4 Fit the idler gear. Retain with the thrust plate and three bolts. Check again the backlash between the
adjustable idler gear and the camshaft gear, and also between the adjustable idler gear (A2) , and the main idler
gear (A3), as given in steps 1 and 2. Repeat the procedure if necessary until the correct backlash settings have
been obtained.
5 When the correct backlash settings have been obtained, remove the adjustable idler gear and proceed as
follows: Remove one of the nuts which retains the idler axle, apply a small amount of Loctite 542 to the threads
of the stud, fit the nut and tighten to a torque of 47 +/- 9 Nm (35 +/- 7 lbf ft). Repeat this procedure for the other
four nuts and the bolt; work on one nut or bolt at a time so that the position of the stub axle is not affected.

Pistons and connecting rod assemblies
4
General information
The pistons fitted to the 2300 and 2800 Series engines consist of two parts: a forged steel crown (A1) and a
cast aluminium skirt (A2). The two parts are retained on the connecting rod by the gudgeon pin (A4). The
pistons each have three rings fitted to grooves in the crown. The top ring is keystone shaped and its face is
plasma coated. The second ring has a tapered face which has a chrome finish. The third ring is an oil control
ring and also has a chrome finish on its face. The oil control ring contains a coil spring which expands the ring.
Small holes in the piston groove allow oil from the oil control ring to drain back to the sump.
The connecting rods are of a conventional design. The small end is wedge shaped and the big end bearing
cap is retained by two special bolts. A split type shell bearing is fitted at the big end and a single piece bearing
is pressed into the small end.
Piston squirter jets provide a supply of oil to cool the piston crown. On 2806 engines, an oil cooling chamber
is formed by the lip at the top of the piston skirt and the cavity behind the ring grooves in the piston crown. The
oil returns to the sump through the clearance gap between the crown and the skirt. For pistons fitted to the
2306 engine, the oil cooling chamber is formed between the cavity behind the ring grooves and two flat plates
fitted in the piston crown. There is a hole in each plate; the oil supply is squirted through one hole, flows around
the cooling chamber and returns to the sump through the hole at the opposite side.
