2) All parts should be thoroughly cleaned, paying
special attention to the engine oil passages, pis-
tons and bearings.
3) Rotating parts and sliding parts such as piston,
bearing and gear should be coated with oil prior to
assembly.
4) Be careful not to let oil, grease or coolant con-
tact the timing belt, clutch disc and flywheel.
5) All removed parts, if to be reused, should be
reinstalled in the original positions and directions.
6) All removed parts, if to be reused, should be
reinstalled in the original positions and directions.
7) Bolts, nuts and washers should be replaced
with new ones as required.
8) Even if necessary inspections have been made
in advance, proceed with assembly work while
making rechecks.
