sion agents. Apply plugs to the fuel
inlet and outlet pipes of the injection
system.
BATTERY: Disconnect the battery.
When it is fully charged, store it in a
safe place. Before doing this, protect
the terminals against corrosion by
applying an anti-rust spray.
2) INTERNAL PROTECTION
COMBUSTION CHAMBER: Remove
the heating glowplugs from the
head, check the piston is in its low-
est stroke position (lower standstill
point), then spray with Petronas
PROT 30 M protective 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 tightening torque.
ELECTRIC COMPONENTS: Apply
anticorrosion spray to the electric
contacts and connectors.
AIR SUCTION SYSTEM: check the
air filter is in good condition, and no
foreign bodies/liquids are present:
•
If the air filter is damaged, re-
place it
•
If there are any foreign bodies,
remove them

LUBRICATION SYSTEM: this proce-
dure 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 or-
ganic 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 lubri-
cated.
• 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.
