ENGINE – Piston and Connecting Rod11-66
(3) Install the piston ring into the cylinder bore. Force it down
with a piston, its crown being in contact with the ring,
to correctly position it at right angles to the cylinder wall.
Then, measure the end gap with a feeler gauge. If the
ring gap is excessive, replace the piston ring.
Standard value:
No. 1 ring 0.25 – 0.35 mm
No. 2 ring 0.40 – 0.55 mm
Oil ring 0.10 – 0.40 mm
Limit:
No. 1, No. 2 ring 0.8 mm
Oil ring 1.0 mm
CRANKSHAFT PIN OIL CLEARANCE
(PLASTIC GAUGE METHOD)
(1) Remove oil from the crankshaft pin and connecting rod
bearing.
(2) Cut the Plastigage to the same length as the width of
the bearing and place it on the crankshaft pin in parallel
with its axis.
(3) Install the connecting rod cap carefully and tighten the
nuts to specified torque.
(4) Carefully remove the connecting rod cap.
(5) Measure the width of the Plastigage at its widest part
by using a scale printed on the Plastigage package.
Standard value: 0.03 – 0.05 mm
Limit: 0.1 mm

ESEALANT APPLICATION TO OIL SEAL CASE
Specified sealant:
Mitsubishi Genuine Part No. MD970389 or equivalent
NOTE
(1) Be sure to install the case quickly while the sealant is
wet (within 15 minutes).
(2) After installation, keep the sealed area away from the
oil and coolant for approx. one hour.
INSPECTION
CRANKSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE (PLASTIGAGE
METHOD)
(1) Remove oil from the crankshaft journal and the crankshaft
bearing.
(2) Install the crankshaft.
(3) Cut the Plastigage to the same length as the width of
the bearing and place it on the journal in parallel with
its axis.
(4) Install the crankshaft bearing cap carefully and tighten
the bolts to the specified torque.
(5) Carefully remove the crankshaft bearing cap.
(6) Measure the width of the Plastigage at its widest part
by using a scale printed on the Plastigage package.
Standard value: 0.02 – 0.04 mm
Limit: 0.1 mm
CYLINDER BLOCK
(1) Visually check for scratches, rust, and corrosion.
Use also a flaw detecting agent for the check. If defects
are evident, correct, or replace.
(2) Using a straightedge and feeler gauge, check the block
top surface for warpage. Make sure that the surface is
free from gasket chips and other foreign matter.
Standard value: 0.05 mm
Limit: 0.1 mm
(3) If the distortion is excessive, correct within the allowable
limit or replace.
Grinding limit: 0.2 mm
Includes/combined with cylinder head grinding
Cylinder block height (when new): 284 mm
(4) Check cylinder walls for scratches and seizure. If defects
are evident, correct (bored to oversize) or replace.

ENGINE – Turbocharger11-77
CSNAP RING INSTALLATION
Lay the assembly with the compressor cover facing down
and fit the snap ring.
Caution
Fit the snap ring with its chamfered side facing up.
DTURBINE HOUSING INSTALLATION
Install the turbine housing in relation to the dowel pin.
Caution
Use care not to damage the blades of turbine wheel.
ECOUPLING INSTALLATION
Install the coupling and tighten to the specified torque.
FWASTE GATE ACTUATOR OPERATION CHECK
Using a tester, apply a pressure of approx. 100.0 kPa to
the actuator and make sure that the rod moves.
Caution
Do not apply a pressure of more than 113.3 kPa to the
actuator. Otherwise, diaphragm may be damaged. Never
attempt to adjust the waste gate valve.
INSPECTION
TURBINE HOUSING
(1) Check the housing for traces of contact with the turbine
wheel, cracks due to overheating, pitching, deformation
and other damage. Replace with a new turbine housing
if cracked.
(2) Operate the waste gate valve lever manually to check
that the gate can be operated and closed smoothly.

INSPECTION
LOWER ARM BALL JOINT ROTATION STARTING
TORQUE CHECK
(1) After shaking the ball joint stud several times, install the
nut to the stud and use the special tool to measure the
rotation starting torque of the ball joint.
Standard value: 1.0 – 3.4 Nm
(2) When the measured value exceeds the standard value,
replace the ball joint assembly.
(3) When the measured value is lower than the standard
value, check that the ball joint turns smoothly without
excessive play. If so, it is possible to use that ball joint.
LOWER ARM BALL JOINT DUST COVER
REPLACEMENT
When the dust cover is damaged during service work or grease
leaks out from the dust cover, replace the dust cover in the
conventional procedure. After replacement, check the dust
cover for cracks or damage by pushing it with finger.
