INSPECTION
1. CLEAN CYLINDER BLOCK
(a) Remove the gasket material.
(b) Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material
from the top surface of the cylinder block.
(c) Clean the cylinder block.
(d) Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylin-
der block.
2. INSPECT TOP SURFACE OF CYLINDER BLOCK FOR
FLATNESS
Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the
surfaces contacting the cylinder head gasket for warpage.
Maximum warpage: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
If warpage is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder block.
3. INSPECT CYLINDER FOR VERTICAL SCRATCHES
Visually check the cylinder for vertical scratches.
If deep scratches are present, replace the cylinder block.
4. INSPECT CYLINDER BORE DIAMETER
HINT:
There are 3 sizes of the standard cylinder bore diameter,
marked º1º, º2º and º3º accordingly. The mark is stamped on the
top of the cylinder block.

(c) Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the pis-
ton.
NOTICE:
Do not damage the piston.
7. INSPECT PISTON OIL CLEARANCE
HINT:
There are 3 sizes of the standard piston diameter, marked º1º,
º2º and º3º accordingly. The mark is stamped on the piston top.
(a) Using a micrometer, measure the piston diameter at right
angles to the piston pin center line, 23 mm (0.91 in.) from
the piston head.
Piston diameter:
Mark º1º73.900 - 73.910 mm (2.9094 - 2.9098 in.)
Mark º2º73.910 - 73.920 mm (2.9098 - 2.9120 in.)
Mark º3º73.920 - 73.930 mm (2.9120 - 2.9106 in)
(b) Measure the cylinder bore diameter in the thrust direc-
tions (See step 4).
(c) Subtract the piston diameter measurement from the cylin-
der bore diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance:
0.09 - 0.11 mm (0.0035 - 0.0043 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:
0.13 mm (0.0051 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace all 4 pis-
tons. If necessary, replace the cylinder block.
HINT:
Use new cylinder block:
Use a piston with the same number mark as the cylinder bore
diameter marked on the cylinder block.

the oil grooves facing outward.
(b) Install the 5 main bearing caps in their proper locations.
HINT:
Each bearing cap has a number and front mark.
(c) Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads and under
the heads of the main bearing caps.
(d) Install and uniformly tighten the 10 bolts of the main bear-
ing caps, in several passes, in the sequence shown.
Torque: 58 N´m (580 kgf´cm, 42 ft´lbf)
(e) Check that the crankshaft turns smoothly.
(f) Check the crankshaft thrust clearance (See page
EM-70).
8. INSTALL PISTON AND CONNECTING ROD AS-
SEMBLIES
(a) Cover the connecting rod bolts with a short piece of hose
to protect the crankshaft from damage.
(b) Using a piston ring compressor, push the correctly num-
bered piston and connecting rod assemblies into each
cylinder with the front mark of the piston facing forward.

PRECAUTION
1. BEFORE WORKING ON FUEL SYSTEM, DISCON-
NECT NEGATIVE (-) TERMINAL CABLE FROM BAT-
TERY
HINT:
Any diagnostic trouble code retained by the computer will be
erased when the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected.
Therefore, if necessary, read the diagnosis before disconnect-
ing the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
2. DO NOT SMOKE OR WORK NEAR AN OPEN FLAME
WHEN WORKING ON THE FUEL SYSTEM
3. KEEP GASOLINE AWAY FROM RUBBER OR LEATH-
ER PARTS
4. MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
(a) In event of engine misfire, the following precautions
should be taken.
(1) Check proper connection to battery terminals, etc.
(2) Handle higt-tension cords carefully.
(3) After repair work, check that the ignition coil termi-
nals and all other ignition system lines are recon-
nected securely.
(4) When cleaning the engine compartment, be espe-
cially careful to protect the electrical system from
water.
(b) Precautions when handling the oxygen sensor.
(1) Do not allow the oxygen sensor to drop or hit
against an object.
(2) Do not allow the sensor to come into contact with
water.
5. IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE RADIO SYS-
TEM (HAM, CB, ETC.)
If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system,
refer to the precaution in the IN section.
6. AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
(a) Separation of the engine oil dipstick, oil filler cap, PCV
hose, etc. may cause the engine out of tune.
(b) Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the parts of the air
induction system between the throttle body and cylinder
head will cause air suction and cause the engine out of
tune.
7. ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
(a) Before removing MFI wiring connectors, terminals, etc.,
first disconnect the power by either turning the ignition
switch to LOCK or disconnecting the negative (-) terminal
cable from the battery.
