5. Tap the piston pin in with the SST until the pin contacts the
clip.
If the pin cannot be installed easily, replace the connecting
rod.
6. Install the second clip into the clip groove in the piston.
7. Check the oscillation torque of the connecting rod. If the
large end does not drop by its own weight, replace the pis-
ton and/or piston pin.
Piston Ring
1. Install the three-piece oil rings on the pistons.
(1) Apply clean engine oil to the oil ring spacer and rails.
(2) Install the oil ring spacer with the ends upward.
Note
l The upper rail and lower rail are the same.
l The rails may be installed with either face upward.
(3) Install the upper rail and lower rail.
2. Verify that both rails are expanded by the spacer tangs as
shown in the figure by making certain the rails turn smoothly
in both directions.
Caution
l The rings must be installed with the Fl marks
upward.
l The second ring must be installed with the scraper
face downward.
3. Apply clean engine oil to the top and second piston rings.
4. install the second ring to the piston; then install the top ring.
Use a piston ring expander (commercially available).

(7) Remove the main bearing caps, and measure the Plasti-
gage at each journal at the widest point for the smallest
clearance, and at the narrowest point for the largest
clearance.
(8) If the oil clearance exceeds specification, grind the
crankshaft and use undersize main bearings.
(Refer to page B2-64.)
Oil clearance: 0.018-0.036mm (0.0007-0.0014 in)
Maximum: O.lOmm (0.004 in)
2. Apply a liberal amount of clean engine oil to the main bear-
ings, thrust bearings and main journals.
3. Install the crankshaft and the main bearing caps accord-
ing to the cap number and C= mark.
4. Tighten the main bearing cap bolts in two or three steps
in the order shown in the figure.
Tightening torque:
54-59 N*m (5.5-6.0 m-kg, 40-43 ft-lb)
5. Measure the crankshaft end play.
End play : 0.080-0.282mm (0.0031-0.0111 in)
Maximum: 0.30mm (0.012 in)
6. If the end play exceeds the maximum, grind the crankshaft
and install an oversize thrust bearing or replace the crank-
shaft and thrust bearing.

Caution
l Protect the connecting rod bolts with rubber sleeves
to prevent damage to the crankpin journals.
1. Apply a liberal amount of clean engine oil to the cylinder
walls, pistons, and piston rings.
2. Check the piston rings for correct end gap alignment.
3. Insert each piston assembly into the cylinder block with the
F mark facing the front of the engine. Use a piston ring com-
pressor (commercially available).
Connecting Rod Cap
1. Measure the connecting rod bearing oil clearances using
the same procedure as for the main bearing oil clearance.
Caution
l Align the matching marks on the cap and the con-
netting rod when installing the connecting rod cap.
Tightening torque:
47-50 N-m (4.8-5.1 m-kg, 35-37 &lb)
Oil clearance: 0.028.0.088mm (0.001 l-0.0027 in)
Maximum: O.lOmm (0.004 in)
2. If the oil clearance exceeds the maximum, grind the crank-
shaft and use undersize bearings. (Refer to page 82-64.)
3. Measure the connecting rod side clearances.
Side clearance: 0.1 lo-0.282mm (0.0043-0.0103 in)
Maximum: 0.30mm (0.012 in)
4. If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the con-
necting rod and cap.
