Measure the piston pin-to-piston clearance.
NOTE: Check the piston for distonion or cracks.
fl the piston pin clearance is greater than 0.022 mm
(0.0009 in), remeasure using an oversize piston pin.

Each rod falls into one of four tolerance ranges (from 0
to + 0.024 mm (0 to + 0.0009 in), in 0.006 mm (0.0002 in)
increments) depending on the size of its big end bore,
It's then stamped with a number (1,2,3, or 4) indicating
the range.
You may find any combination ot 1,2,3, or 4 in any

E engine oilto the main bearings and rod bearings.
1. lnstall the thrust washers in the No. 4 iournal of the
cylinder block.

Insert bearing halves in the engine block and con-
necflng roos.
Hold the crankshaft so rod journals for cylinders No.

Lower the crankshaft into the block, putting the rod
iournals into connecting rods No.2 and No.3.

Rotate the crankshaft clockwise, put journals into
connecting rods No. 1 and No.4, and install the rod
caps and nuts tinger-tight.
NOTEI lnstall caps so the bearing recess is on the
same side as the recess in the rod.
Check rod bearing clearance with plastigage (see
page 7-9), then tighten the capnuts in 2 steps.

CAUTION: Whenever any crankshaft o. connecting rod
bearing is replaced, it is necessary after reassembly to
run the engine at idling speed until it reaches normal
opelating temperature, then continue to run it tor
approximalely 15 minutes.
Apply non-hardening liquid gasket to the block mat-
ing surface of the right side cover, and install it on
the cylinder block.
NOTEI
. Use liquid gasket, Part No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718- 0003,
. Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry
before applying liquid gasket.
. Apply liquid gasket as an even bead, centered
between the edges of the mating surface.
. To prevent leakage of oil, apply liquid gasket to
the inner threads of the bolt holes.
. Do not install the parts if 5 minutes or more have
elapsed since applying the liquid gasket. Instead,
reapply liquid gasket after removing the old
residue.
After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes betore
filling the engine with oil.
RIGHT SIDE COVER:
Apply liquid gasket alongthe broken line.
