ENGINE STORAGE
If the engine is left idle for prolonged periods, check the
possible conditions of conservation in relation to the
storage area and the type of packaging.
Avoid any environment exposed to dampness or to the
inclemency of weather.
The manufacturer supplies the engine with a protection
treatment which is valid for 6 months from the delivery
date.

Caution:
The staff carrying out any type of intervention throu-
ghout the life of the engine should have precise
technical skills, specific abilities and experiences
acquired and acknowledged in this sector. The lack
of these requirements may cause damages to peo-
ple's safety and health.
VM MOTORI STELLANTIS EUROPE recommends
that this protection procedure is only carried out
by VM MOTORI STELLANTIS EUROPE-authorised
personnel.
Important
Important:
– All packaging components should be disposed
of in accordance with the legislation in force in the
country where disposal takes place.
The protection procedure is only considered complete
when all the following tasks have been performed:
1) protection against external corrosion
2) protection against internal corrosion
3) packaging and storage
This procedure is valid for the following engine situa-
tions:
• on a vehicle
• on a pallet
For engines on pallets, it is necessary to install the fol-
lowing accessories for engine start-up:
• battery
• fuel tank
• cooling radiator (for liquid-cooled engines only)
• command belt for the alternating current generator
• command belt for the water pump (for liquid-cooled
engines only)
English
1) EXTERNAL PROTECTION
UNPAINTED SURFACES: the unpainted metal compo-
nents and surfaces (for instance the engine handwheel)
must be protected with "FL MECA FLUID / P118V"
anticorrosion oil.
RUBBER COMPONENTS: unpainted manifolds and
pipes must be protected with talcum powder. Check the
tightening of the relative fixing clips.
DRIVE BELTS: after applying the internal protection,
remove the belts and put them into storage. Protect the
surfaces of the metal pulleys with "FL MECA FLUID /
P118V" spray.
ENGINE OPENINGS: Seal all the engine openings,
including the exhaust. Use cardboard, plywood or
metal covers, making sure they do not leave behind
any fragments of material. All the engine openings
(e.g. air suction ducts or turbocharger air inlet) must be
protected with covers or guards to prevent the entry of
solids, liquids or dusts that delay the evaporation of the
anticorro sion agents. Apply plugs to the fuel inlet and
outlet pipes of the injection system.
BATTERY: Disconnect the battery. When it is fully char-
ged, 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
lowest 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 Petro-
nas 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, replace it
•
If there are any foreign bodies, remove them
