2. Set piston rings as shown.
CAUTION:
lWhen piston rings are not replaced, make sure that pis-
ton rings are mounted in their original positions.
lWhen piston rings are being replaced and no punchmark
is present, piston rings can be mounted with either side
up.
3. Align piston rings so that end gaps are positioned as shown.
CRANKSHAFT
1. Set main bearings in their proper positions on cylinder block
and main bearing caps.
lConfirm that correct main bearings are used. Refer to
EM-2042.
lApply new engine oil to bearing surfaces.
2. Install crankshaft and main bearing caps and tighten bolts to
the specified torque. Refer to EM-2038.
lApply new engine oil to the bolt threads and seat sur-
face.
lPrior to tightening bearing cap bolts, place bearing cap
in its proper position by shifting crankshaft in the axial
direction.
lTighten bearing cap bolts gradually in two or three
stages. Start with center bearing and move outward as
shown in figure.
lAfter securing bearing cap bolts, make sure crankshaft
turns smoothly by hand.
