Installation
1. Apply a coat of engine oil to the ring grooves andcylinder bores.
It the crankshaft is already installed.
2. Set the crankshatt to BDC for each cylinder.3. Remove the connecting rod caps, and slip short sections of rubber hose over the threaded ends of theconnecting rod bolts.
4. lnstall the ring compressor, and check that the bear-ang is securely in place.
5. Position the piston in the cylinder, and tap it in usingthe wooden handle of a hammer. Maintain down-ward force on the ring compressor to prevent ringstrom expanding before entering the cylinder bore.6. Stop after the ring compressor pops free, and checkthe connecting rod-to-crank journal alignmentbefore pushing piston into place.
7. Install the rod caps with bearings, and torque theNUIS IO:

Installation
Apply a coat of engine oil to the main bearings androd bearings.
Insert the bearing halves in the cylinder block andconnect|ng rods.
Hold the crankshaft so the rod journals for cylindersNo.2 and No. 3 are straight down.
Lower the crankshaft into the block, seating the rodjournals into connecting rods No.2 and No.3.Install the rod caps and nuts finger tight.

Rotate the crankshaft clockwise, and seat the jour
nals into connecting rods No. 1 and No. 4, Install
the rod caps and nuts finger-tight. Install the capsso the bearing recess is on the same side as therecess an the rod.
Check the rod bearing clearance with plastigage(see page 7 8). then lorque the capnuts.

NOTE: Whenever any crankshaft or connecting rod
bearing is replaced, it is necessary after reassembly
to run the engine at idling speed until it reaches
normal operating temperature, then continue to run
it for approximatelY 15 minutes.
10.Clean and dry the right side cover mating surfaces.
Apply liquid gasket, part No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718
- 0003, evenly to the block mating surface of the
right side cover and to the inner threads of the bolt
holes. Install it on the cylind€r block

NOTE:
. Do not install the parts if five 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 before
filling the engine with oil.

Tighten all bolts and nuts, starting from nut O. clock-
wise in three steps. Excessive tightening can cause
distortion ot the oil pan gasket and oil leakage.

lnstallation
Dry the crankshaft oil seal housing.
Apply a light coat of grease to the crankshsft and to
the lips of the seals.
Using the special tool, drive in the timing pulley-end
seal until the driver bottoms against the oil pump.
When the seal is in place, clean any excess grease
off the crankshaft and check that the oil seal lip is
not distorted,

1.Park the vehicle on level ground, and turn off theengine. Allow the oil a few minutes to drain backinto the oil pan so the dipstick will show the actuallevet,
Make certain that the oil level indicated on the dip-stick is between the upper and lower marks. Insertthe dipstick carefully to avoid bending it.
lf the level has dropped close to the lower mark,add oil until it reaches the upper mark.
