Taking a Liebherr engine from bare crankcase back to running order is the job these 664 pages are written for: factory service manual ID No. 8717408, covering four D series diesel variants. Cylinder head removal and valve inspection, crankshaft and camshaft bearing replacement, injection pump removal, injector testing and turbocharger servicing each have a chapter in this Liebherr D 9408 service manual PDF, while the basic engine teardown walks the timing case, crankshaft and camshaft out and back in. A maintenance schedule, troubleshooting charts and torque tables come in the early chapters; the book closes on the measuring tools and fixtures your rebuild calls for. Set injector pop pressure to 225+8 bar on new nozzles and 217+8 bar in service; the oil filter bypass valve should open at 6 ±1 bar. Alone at the stand, there is nobody to ask. Bookmarked and text-searchable, the PDF is bought once and stays yours, holding every clearance and torque sequence before your engine goes back together.
