Flywheel
If ring gear is damaged, cracked or worn, replace flywheel.
If the surface contacting clutch disc is damaged, or excessively
worn, replace flywheel.
Check flywheel for face runout with dial gauge.
If runout exceeds its limit, replace flywheel.
Limit on runout: 0.2 mm (0.0078 in.)
Cylinder Block
Distortion of gasketed surface
Using straightedge and thickness gauge, check gasketed surface
for distortion and, if flatness exceeds its limit, correct it.

Honing or reboring cylinders
1) When any cylinder needs reboring, all other cylinders must also
be rebored at the same time.
2) Select oversized piston according to amount of cylinder wear.

O / S 0.5074.470 – 74.480 mm
(2.9319 – 2.9323 in.)
3) Using micrometer, measure piston diameter.
4) Calculate cylinder bore diameter to be rebored.
D = A + B – C

5) Rebore and hone cylinder to calculated dimension.
NOTE:
Before reboring, install all main bearing caps in place and
tighten to specification to avoid distortion of bearing bores.
6) Measure piston clearance after honing.
INSTALLATION
NOTE:
All parts to be installed must be perfectly clean.
Be sure to oil crankshaft journals, journal bearings, thrust
bearings, crankpins, connecting rod bearings, pistons, pis-
ton rings and cylinder bores.
Journal bearings, bearing caps, connecting rods, rod bear-
ings, rod bearing caps, pistons and piston rings are in com-
bination sets. Do not disturb such combination and make
sure that each part goes back to where it came from, when
installing.
1) Install main bearings to cylinder block.
One of two halves of main bearing (2), has an oil groove (3).
Install it to cylinder block (1), and the other half without oil groove
to bearing cap.
Make sure that two halves are painted in the same color.
2) Install thrust bearings (1) to cylinder block between No.2 and
No.3 cylinders. Face oil groove (2) sides to crank webs.

3) Install crankshaft to cylinder block.
4) Install bearing cap to cylinder block, making sure to point arrow
mark (on each cap) to crankshaft pulley side. Fit them sequen-
tially in ascending order, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, starting from pulley side.
After installing bearing cap stiffeners, tighten bearing cap bolts
in such order as shown in figure a little at a time and repeat it till
they are tightened to specified torque.

NOTE:
As there are 2 types of housing bolts, refer to figure for their
correct use.
After installing oil seal housing, gasket edges might bulge out;
if so, cut them off to make them flush with cylinder block and oil
seal housing.
6) Install oil pump.
Refer to item “Oil pump” for installation of oil pump.
7) Install flywheel (M / T model) or drive plate (A / T model).
Using special tool, lock flywheel or drive plate, and torque its
bolts to specification.

8) Install pistons and connecting rods as previously outlined.
9) Install oil pump strainer and oil pan as previously outlined.
10) Install cylinder head assembly to cylinder block as previously
outlined.
11) Install camshaft, crankshaft timing belt pulley, timing belt,
crankshaft pulley, water pump pulley, etc., as previously out-
lined.
12) Install clutch to flywheel (for M / T vehicle). For clutch installa-
tion, refer to “CLUTCH” section.
13) Install engine mountings and brackets.
Refer to tightening torque for INSTALLATION of “ENGINE AS-
SEMBLY” in this section.
14) Install engine with transmission to vehicle as previously out-
lined.

6B-2 ENGINE COOLING
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
COOLING SYSTEM CIRCULATION
During engine warm-up (thermostat closed), the water pump discharges coolant into the water jacket chamber
adjacent to No.1 cylinder. Coolant then flows through the cylinder block and the cylinder heat. Coolant then returns
to the water pump through intake manifold, heater inlet hose, heater unit, heater outlet hose, and water intake pipe.
During normal temperatures (thermostat open), coolant takes the same basic route but is now allowed to flow past
the thermostat, the inlet hose and the radiator, and then back to the water pump through the outlet hose and the
water intake pipe.

6B-6 ENGINE COOLING
COOLING SYSTEM FLUSH AND REFILL
WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not remove radia-
tor cap while engine and radiator cap while engine and ra-
diator are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam can be blown
out under pressure if cap is taken off too soon.
1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool:
Turn cap counterclockwise slowly until it reaches a “stop”.
(Do not press down while turning it.)
Wait until pressure is relieved (indicated by a hissing sound)
then press down on cap and continue to turn it counterclock-
wise.
2) With radiator cap removed, run engine until upper radiator
hose is hot (this shows that thermostat is open and coolant is
flowing through system).
3) Stop engine and open radiator drain plug (1) to drain coolant.
4) Close drain plug. Add water until system is filled and run engine
until upper radiator hose is hot again.
5) Repeat Steps 3) and 4) several times until drained liquid is
nearly colorless.
6) Drain system and then close radiator drain plug tightly.
7) Disconnect reservoir tank hose from radiator. Remove reser-
voir tank and pour out any fluid. Scrub and clean inside of tank
with soap and water.
Flush it well with clean water and drain. Reinstall tank and
hose.
8) add 50 / 50 mixture of GOLDEN CRUISER 1200 (Good quality
ethylene glycol anti-freeze) and water to radiator and tank.
Fill radiator to the base of radiator filler neck and reservoir tank
to “FULL” level mark. Reinstall reservoir tank cap.
9) Run engine, with radiator cap removed, until radiator upper
hose is hot.
10) With engine idling, add coolant to radiator until level reaches
the bottom of filler neck. Install radiator cap, making sure that
the ear of cap lines up with reservoir tank hose.
