Engine Bolt Reuse Guidelines & Torque Specifications For
1996-2003 Hyundai Engines
The AERA Technical Committee offers the following information regarding engine bolt reuse guidelines & torque specifications for 1996-2003 Hyundai engines. This bulletin applies to the cylinder head, connecting rod and main bearing bolts that use the torque angle method for tightening.
It has been determined fasteners that are tightened by the conventional torque only method can have substantial clamping force variation. These variations come from several factors such as fastener friction and hand tightening versus power driver tightening methods. Fasteners that are tightened by a low initial torque value plus tightened and additional angular value are known as ?torque-angle bolts" (or sometimes torque-to-yield bolts). These types of bolts or fasteners can achieve very high clamp loads with very small variation.

| INTERFERENCE ENGINES |
Interference Engines
The AERA Technical Committee would like to offer the following information on engines that present the possibility of interference between pistons and valves. The interference or contact may bend valve(s) when the timing between the camshaft and crankshaft is interrupted. This is generally the result of a timing belt or chain breaking or slipping.
The following list are engines that AERA is currently aware of that have exhibited interference. There may be other engines that are not listed below that have the possibility of piston to valve contact. If the engine you are working on is not listed, do not assume that it is a freewheeling design. It is suggested to add to this listing as additional information is obtained.

Loose Valve Guides On
Hyundai 1.6L Engines
AERA member machine shops have reported finding loose valve guides in Hyundai 1.6L engine cylinder heads.
Hyundai has made oversize OD guides available for installation in cylinder heads where the original guide has become loose. The oversizes are .002 (.05mm), .010 (.25mm) and .020 (.50mm) and should be available at the local dealer under the following part numbers. Standard size OD valve guides are not available.
Intake Exhaust Cyl. Head Bore

.025 MD000463 MD000473 .5315-.5323 (13.500-13.520mm)
The valve guide inside diameter should be finished to provide .0008-.0019 (.020-.048mm) of clearance for intake and .0020-.0033 (.050-.084mm) of clearance for the exhaust valve stem.
The installed valve guide height should be .539-.563 above the spring seat of the cylinder head.

| REVISED LASH ADJUSTER FOR HYUNDAI ENGINES |
Revised Lash Adjuster For
1992-2003 Hyundai 1.6,1.8, 2.0, 2.4, 3.0 & 3.5L Engines
The AERA Technical Committee offers the following information regarding a revised lash adjuster for 1992-2003 Hyundai engines. This lifter revision applies to all of the engines shown in the chart below used by Hyundai. The new larger hole lash adjuster has been installed on engines produced beginning October 2000.
The major visual difference between the two lifters is the oil hole opening size located at the top of the lifter as viewed in Figure 2. The oil hole opening was doubled in size from .059 (1.5 MM) to .118 (3.0 MM). The new lash adjuster assembly may be installed on the engines, if replaced as a set within the engine. It is not recommended to mix the two different adjusters.
The new hydraulic lash adjuster (P/N 24610-33050) with a larger oil hole has been released to reduce engine noise. AERA is aware of at least one aftermarket source at this time.

| REVISED OIL FILTER SEAL ON 1986-87 1.5L ENGINES |
Revised Oil Filter Seal
on 1986-87 Hyundai 1.5L (92 CID) Engines
Hyundai has modified the oil filter seal on the oil filter
assembly that is used on 1986-87 1.5L (92 CID) engines. The new
oil filter assembly, part #26300-21010, provides increased
sealing capabilities and is the only replacement part serviced by
Hyundai. While the oil filter has been revised, it still carries
the part number of the former filter.
You can differentiate between the former and the revised oil
filter assembly (Figure 1) by measuring the height of the sealing
ring (Figure 2). The revised sealing ring is .102 (2.6 mm)
tall, whereas the former sealing ring measures only .099 (2.4
mm). The width of the oil filter base contact side of the
sealing ring has also been increased by decreasing the sealing
ring taper.
Engines produced after March 4, 1987 carry the new oil filter.

| CONNECTING ROD ASSEMBLY CAUTION |
Connecting Rod Assembly Caution On
1986-94 Hyundai 1.5L VIN J Engines
The AERA Technical Committee offers the following connecting rod to piston assembly caution on 1986-94 Hyundai 1.5L VIN J engines. Failure to use the
correct procedures may result in loss of interference fit between the piston pin and rod during engine operating. Hyundai does not recommend using heat to
install the connecting rod on to the piston pin.
The recommended procedure from Hyundai is to press the piston pin into the connecting rod. While pressing the rod to the piston pin, make sure only 1,102-3,306 lbs of pressure is used to install the pin. If the force is lower than 1,102 lbs. replace the rod or fit the rod with an oversize piston pin. If over 3,306 lbs of force is required, hone the rod as required to achieve the factory assembly specifications.
NOTE: Do not exceed 5,000 lbs force while determining assembly pressure.
For Additional information, refer to AERA Technical Bulletin TB-1527.

| HEADBOLT TIGHTING SEQUENCE FOR 2001 HYUNDAI 2.0L ENGINES |
Head Bolt Tightening Sequence For
2001 Hyundai 2.0L Engines
The AERA Technical Committee offers the following information regarding the correct cylinder head tightening sequence for 2001 Hyundai 2.0L DOHC engines. Previously published information inadvertently showed the head bolt removal sequence.
To install the head on this engine refer to the following steps and also note Hyundai does not recommend reusing any head bolt more than once.
·Clean all gasket surfaces of the cylinder block and cylinder head and blow-dry with compressed air.
·Install a new cylinder head gasket; do not use any type of sealer or lubricant.
·Place the head onto engine and install all head bolts and tighten finger tight.
·Tighten all M10 bolts = 22 ft/lbs (30 Nm) and all M12 bolts to 26 ft/lbs (35 Nm) in sequence.
·Rotate all bolts in sequence 60°.
·Rotate all bolts again in sequence an additional 60° turn.
