(1) Remove the radiator. Refer to Group 7, Cooling
for the correct procedures.
(2) Remove the A/C Condenser (if equipped).
(3) Remove the engine cover.
(4) Remove intake manifold. Refer to Intake Man-
ifold in this section for the correct procedure.
(5) Remove cylinder head covers.
(6) Remove timing case cover and timing chain.
(7) Remove rocker arms.
(8) Remove push rods and tappets. Identify each
part so it can be installed in its original location.
(9) Remove distributor and lift out the oil pump
and distributor drive shaft.
(10) Remove camshaft thrust plate, note location of
oil tab (Fig. 59).
(11) Install a long bolt into front of camshaft to aid
in removal of the camshaft. Remove camshaft, being
careful not to damage cam bearings with the cam
lobes.
INSTALLATION
(1) Lubricate camshaft lobes and camshaft bearing
journals and insert the camshaft to within 51 mm (2
inches) of its final position in cylinder block.(2) Install Camshaft Gear Installer Tool C-3509
with tongue back of distributor drive gear (Fig. 60).
(3) Hold tool in position with a distributor lock-
plate bolt. This tool will restrict camshaft from being
pushed in too far and prevent knocking out the welch
plug in rear of cylinder block.Tool should remain
installed until the camshaft and crankshaft
sprockets and timing chain have been installed.
(4) Install camshaft thrust plate and chain oil tab.
Make sure tang enters lower right hole in
thrust plate.Tighten bolts to 24 N´m (210 in. lbs.)

bushing is removed.
INSTALLATION
(1) Slide new bushing over burnishing end of Dis-
tributor Drive Shaft Bushing Driver/Burnisher Tool
C-3053. Insert the tool and bushing into the bore.
(2) Drive bushing and tool into position, using a
hammer (Fig. 64).
(3) As the burnisher is pulled through the bushing,
the bushing is expanded tight in the block and bur-
nished to correct size (Fig. 65).DO NOT ream this
bushing.
CAUTION: This procedure MUST be followed when
installing a new bushing or seizure to shaft may
occur.
(4) Install the intake manifold.
DISTRIBUTOR INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before installing the distributor, the oil
pump drive shaft must be aligned to number one
cylinder.(1) Rotate crankshaft until No.1 cylinder is at top
dead center on the firing stroke.
(2) When in this position, the timing mark of
vibration damper should be under ª0º on the timing
indicator.
(3) Install the shaft so that after the gear spirals
into place, it will index with the oil pump shaft. The
slot on top of oil pump shaft should be aligned
towards the left front intake manifold attaching bolt
hole (Fig. 66).
(4) Install distributor, refer to Group 8D, Ignition
Systems for the proper procedure.
After the distributor has been installed, its rota-
tional position must be set using theSET SYNC
mode of the DRB scan tool. Refer to Checking Dis-
tributor Position following the Distributor Installa-
tion section in Group 8D, Ignition system.
Do not attempt to adjust ignition timing by
rotating the distributor. It has no effect on igni-
tion timing. Adjusting distributor position will
effect fuel synchronization only.

(1) Be sure that compression ring gaps are stag-
gered so that neither is in-line with oil ring rail gap.
(2) Before installing the ring compressor, make
sure the oil ring expander ends are butted and the
rail gaps located properly (Fig. 70).
(3) Immerse the piston head and rings in clean
engine oil. Slide Piston Ring Compressor Tool C-385
over the piston and tighten with the special wrench
(part of Tool C-385).Be sure position of rings
does not change during this operation.
(4) Install connecting rod bolt protectors on rod
bolts, the long protector should be installed on the
numbered side of the connecting rod.
(5) Rotate crankshaft so that the connecting rod
journal is on the center of the cylinder bore. Be sure
connecting rod and cylinder bore number are the
same. Insert rod and piston into cylinder bore and
guide rod over the crankshaft journal.
(6) Tap the piston down in cylinder bore, using a
hammer handle. At the same time, guide connecting
rod into position on crankshaft journal.
(7) The notch or groove on top of piston must be
pointing toward front of engine. The larger chamfer
of the connecting rod bore must be installed toward
crankshaft journal fillet.

necting rod cap and cylinder bore number are the
same. Install nuts on cleaned and oiled rod bolts and
tighten nuts to 61 N´m (45 ft. lbs.) torque.
(9) Install the oil pan.
(10) Install the cylinder head.
(11) Install the engine into the vehicle.
CRANKSHAFT
A crankshaft which has undersize journals will be
stamped with 1/4 inch letters on the milled flat on
the No.3 crankshaft counterweight (Fig. 71).
FOR EXAMPLE:R2 stamped on the No.3 crank-
shaft counterweight indicates that the No.2 rod jour-
nal is 0.025 mm (0.001 in) undersize. M4 indicates
that the No.4 main journal is 0.025 mm (0.001 in)
undersize. R3 M2 indicates that the No.3 rod journal
and the No.2 main journal are 0.025 mm (0.001 in)
undersize.
When a crankshaft is replaced, all main and con-
necting rod bearings should be replaced with new
bearings. Therefore, selective fitting of the bearings
is not required when a crankshaft and bearings are
replaced.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the oil pan.
(2) Remove the oil pump from the rear main bear-
ing cap.
(3) Remove the vibration damper.
(4) Remove the timing chain cover.
(5) Identify bearing caps before removal. Remove
bearing caps and bearings one at a time.
(6) Lift the crankshaft out of the block.

INSPECTION OF JOURNALS
The crankshaft connecting rod and main journals
should be checked for excessive wear, taper and scor-
ing. The maximum taper or out-of-round on any
crankshaft journal is 0.025 mm (0.001 inch).
Journal grinding should not exceed 0.305 mm
(0.012 inch) under the standard journal diameter. DO
NOT grind thrust faces of No.3 main bearing. DO
NOT nick crank pin or bearing fillets. After grinding,
remove rough edges from crankshaft oil holes and
clean out all oil passages.
CAUTION: After any journal grind, it is important
that the final paper or cloth polish be in the same
direction as the engine rotates.
CLEANING
Clean Loctite 518 residue and sealant from the cyl-
inder block and rear cap mating surface. Do this
before applying the Loctite drop and the installation
of rear cap.
INSTALLATION

oil.
(2) Install the new upper rear bearing oil seal with
the white paint facing towards the rear of the engine.
(3) Position the crankshaft into the cylinder block.
(4) Lightly oil the new lower seal lips with engine
oil.
(5) Install the new lower rear bearing oil seal into
the bearing cap with the white paint facing towards
the rear of the engine.
(6) Apply 5 mm (0.20 in) drop of Loctite 518, or
equivalent, on each side of the rear main bearing cap
(Fig. 72). DO NOT over apply sealant or allow the
sealant to contact the rubber seal. Assemble bearing
cap to cylinder block immediately after sealant appli-
cation.
(7) To align the bearing cap, use cap slot, align-
ment dowel and cap bolts. DO NOT remove excess
material after assembly. DO NOT strike rear cap
more than 2 times for proper engagement.
(8) Clean and oil all cap bolts. Install all main
bearing caps. Install all cap bolts and alternately
tighten to 115 N´m (85 ft. lbs.) torque.
(9) Install oil pump.
Apply MopartSilicone Rubber Adhesive Sealant,
or equivalent, at bearing cap to block joint to provide
cap to block and oil pan sealing (Fig. 73). Apply
enough sealant until a small amount is squeezed out.Withdraw nozzle and wipe excess sealant off the oil
pan seal groove.
(10) Install new front crankshaft oil seal.
(11) Immediately install the oil pan.
OIL PUMP
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the oil pan.
(2) Remove the oil pump from rear main bearing
cap.
INSTALLATION

oil seal alignment to crankshaft. The seal installa-
tion/alignment tool 6635, should fit with minimum
interference. If tool does not fit, the cover must be
removed and installed properly.
(4) Place a suitable tool behind the lips of the oil
seal to pry the oil seal outward. Be careful not to
damage the crankshaft seal bore of cover.
(5) Place the smaller diameter of the oil seal over
Front Oil Seal Installation Tool 6635 (Fig. 74). Seat
the oil seal in the groove of the tool.
