2. Drain coolant and oil.
3. Remove oil pan.
4. Remove timing chain. Refer to ªRemovalº in ªTIMING
CHAINº (EM-2015).
5. Remove water pump.
6. Remove cylinder head.
7. Remove pistons with connecting rods.
8. Remove bearing caps and crankshaft.
lBefore removing bearing caps, measure crankshaft end
play. Refer to EM-2047.

Inspection
PISTON AND PISTON PIN CLEARANCE
1. Measure inner diameter of piston pin hole ªdpº.
Standard diameter ªdpº:
20.993 - 20.999 mm (0.8265 - 0.8267 in)
2. Measure outer diameter of piston pin ªDpº.
Standard diameter ªDpº:
20.989 - 21.001 mm (0.8263 - 0.8268 in)
3. Calculate piston pin clearance.
dp þ Dp = þ0.002 to 0.01 mm (þ0.0001 to 0.0004 in)
If it exceeds the above value, replace piston assembly with
pin.

Precautions for SRS ``AIR BAG'' and ``SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER'' Service
lDo not use electrical test equipment to check SRS circuits unless instructed to in this Service Manual.
lBefore servicing the SRS, turn ignition switch ``OFF'', disconnect both battery cables and wait at least
3 minutes.
For approximately 3 minutes after the cables are removed, it is still possible for the air bag to deploy.
Therefore, do not work on any SRS connectors or wires until at least 3 minutes have passed.
lDiagnosis sensor unit must always be installed with their arrow marks ``S'' pointing towards the front of
the vehicle for proper operation. Also check diagnosis sensor unit for cracks, deformities or rust before
installation and replace as required.
lThe spiral cable must be aligned with the neutral position since its rotations are limited. Do not attempt
to turn steering wheel or column after removal of steering gear.
lHandle air bag module carefully. Always place driver and passenger air bag modules with the pad side
facing upward.
lConduct self-diagnosis to check entire SRS for proper function after replacing any components.
lAfter air bag inflates, the front instrument panel assembly should be replaced if damaged.

lRemove air bag module from steering wheel, instrument
panel or seat back. Check harness cover and connectors for
damage, terminals for deformities, and harness for binding.
lInstall driver air bag module to steering wheel to check fit or
alignment with the wheel.
lCheck steering wheel for excessive free play.
lInstall passenger air bag module to instrument panel to
check fit or alignment with the instrument panel.
(3) Spiral cable
lCheck spiral cable for dents, cracks, or deformities.
lCheck connectors and protective tape for damage.
lCheck steering wheel for noise, binding or heavy operation.
(4) Main harness and air bag harness
lCheck connectors for poor connections, damage, and termi-
nals for deformities.
lCheck harnesses for binding, chafing or cut.
CAUTION:
Replace previously used special bolts and ground bolt with
new ones.
Removal and Installation Ð Diagnosis
Sensor Unit
CAUTION:
lBefore servicing SRS, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect both battery cables and wait at least
3 minutes.
lDo not use old special bolts and nuts coated with bonding agent after removal; replace with new
ones.

3. Make sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position.
The neutral position is detected by turning left about 2.5
revolutions from the right end position. Align the two marks
(
,
s).
CAUTION:
lThe spiral cable may snap due to steering operation if
the cable is installed in an improper position.
Also, with the steering linkage disconnected, the cable
may snap by turning the steering wheel beyond the lim-
ited number of turns.
The spiral cable can be turned up to about 2.5 turns from
the neutral position to both the right and left.
4. Connect spiral cable connector and tighten with screws.
Install steering column cover.
5. Install steering, wheel setting spiral cable pin guide, and pull
spiral cable through.
6. Connect horn connector and engage spiral cable with pawls
in steering wheel. Move air bag module connector away from
steering wheel lower lid opening.
7. Tighten nut.
: 29 - 39 (3.0 - 4.0 kg-m, 22 - 29 ft-lb)
8. Position air bag module and tighten with new special bolts.
lAlways service the air bag module from the side.
9. Connect air bag module connector.
10. Install all lids.
11. Perform self-diagnosis to ensure entire SRS operates prop-
erly. (Use CONSULT or warning lamp check.) Refer to
RS-2025.
Before performing self-diagnosis, connect both battery
cables.
12. Turn steering wheel to the left end and then to the right end
fully to make sure that spiral cable is set in the neutral posi-
tion.
If air bag warning lamp blinks or stays ON (at the User
mode), it shows the spiral cable may be snapped due to its
improper position. Perform self-diagnosis again (use CON-
SULT or warning lamp). If a malfunction is detected, replace
the spiral cable with a new one.
13. Perform self-diagnosis again to check that no malfunction is
detected.
