removing the cam wheels ect
« on: October 31 2024, 10:44 »
Good day.  I have a very small water leak from the freshwater circulating pump  Bavaria 42 2000. .  This is behind the plastic covers on my MD22 55hp.  I have started the job and removed the cam belt, with all pulleys locked in position but cant remove the main crankshaft pully.  Is there a secret to getting the main lock nut off.  The boat is in the water so I cant put it in gear and lock the prop. How do you lock crankshaft so I can undo the nut.  Also I cant figure out how to lock the fuel injector pump once the injector drive wheel is off.  Is there any U tube videos. Thanks Terry.

I believe MD22 workshop manual from may help https://nikimat.com/volvo_tmd_22_workshop_manual.pdf. Furhtermore some tips on how not to use Volvo special tools and still manage locking all timing components (incl. flywheel) are described in timing belt change DIY instructions at https://www.jeanneau-owners.com/hintsandtips/volvomd22lbtimingbelt.html.

..preparing for timing belt change within the next one or two seasons... have these links at my bookmarks :)

I can recommend getting the Haynes manual for the Perkins Prima (which is what the MD22 is, with some minor modifications around the heat exchanger):



Helped me a lot with this sort of job. It has all the right size drill bits that you can use instead of the Volvo special locking tools :)
