28. CHECK FIT BETWEEN PISTON AND PISTON PIN
Try to move the piston back and forth on the piston pin.
If any movement is felt, replace the piston and pin as a set.
29. REMOVE PISTON RINGS
(a) Using a piston ring expander, remove the 2 compression
rings.
(b) Remove the 2 side rails and oil ring expander by hand.
HINT:
Arrange the piston rings in correct order only.
30. DISCONNECT CONNECTING ROD FROM PISTON
(a) Using a small screwdriver, remove the 2 snap rings.
(b) Gradually heat the piston to about 80°C (176°F).
(c) Using a plastic-faced hammer and brass bar, lightly tap
out the piston pin and remove the connecting rod.

INSPECTION
1. REMOVE GASKET MATERIAL
Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material from the
cylinder block surface.
2. CLEAN CYLINDER BLOCK
Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylinder
block.
3. INSPECT CYLINDER BLOCK SURFACE FOR
FLATNESS
Using precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the
surfaces of the cylinder block for warpage.
Maximum warpage: 0.07 mm (0.0028 in.)
If warpage is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder block.
4. INSPECT CYLINDER FOR VERTICAL SCRATCHES
Visually check the cylinder for vertical scratches.
If deep scratches are present, replace the cylinder block.
5. INSPECT CYLINDER BORE DIAMETER
Using a cylinder gauge, measure the cylinder bore diameter at
positions A, B and C in the thrust and axial directions.
Standard diameter:
86.000 - 86.013 mm (3.3858 - 3.3863 in.)
Maximum diameter: 86.02 mm (3.3866 in.)
If the diameter is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder
block.

12. PINSPECT PISTON PIN FIT
At 80°C (176°F), you should be able to push the piston pin into
the piston pin hole with your thumb.
13. INSPECT CONNECTING ROD ALIGNMENT
Using a feeler gauge and rod aligner, check the connecting rod
alignment.
Check for out-of-alignment
Maximum out-of-alignment:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in.) per 100 mm (3.94 in.)
If out-of-alignment is greater than maximum, replace the con-
necting rod assembly.
Check for twist
Maximum twist:
0.15 mm (0.0059 in.) per 100 mm (3.94 in.)
If twist is greater than maximum, replace the connecting rod as-
sembly.
14. INSPECT PISTON PIN OIL CLEARANCE
(a) Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the
connecting rod bushing.
Bushing inside diameter:
22.005 - 22.014 mm (0.8663 - 0.8667 in.)
(b) Using a micrometer, measure the piston pin diameter.
Piston pin diameter:
21.997 - 22.006 mm (0.8660 - 0.8664 in.)
(c) Subtract the piston pin diameter measurement from the
bushing inside diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance:
0.005 - 0.011 mm (0.0002 - 0.0004 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace the bush-
ing. If necessary, replace the piston and piston pin as a set.

(d) Check the piston pin fit at room temperature.
Coat the piston pin with engine oil and push it into the con-
necting rod with your thumb.
15. INSPECT CONNECTING ROD BOLTS
Using vernier calipers, measure the minimum diameter of the
compressed bolt at the measuring point.
Standard diameter: 8.1 - 8.3 mm (0.319 - 0.327 in.)
Minimum diameter: 8.0 mm (0.315 in.)
If the diameter is less than minimum, replace the connecting rod
bolt.
16. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT FOR RUNOUT
(a) Place the crankshaft on V-blocks.
(b) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout at the
center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.06 mm (0.0024 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, replace the crank-
shaft.
17. INSPECT MAIN JOURNALS AND CRANK PINS
(a) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of each main
journal and crank pin.
Diameter:
If the diameter is not as specified, check the oil clearance. (See
page EM-71)
(b) Check each main journal and crank pin for taper and out-
of-round as shown.
Maximum taper and out-of round:
0.02 mm (0.0008 in.)
If the taper or out-of-round is greater than maximum, grind or
replace the crankshaft.
