(j) Measure the Plastigage at its widest point.
Standard oil clearance:
STD
0.024 ± 0.055 mm (0.0009 ± 0.0022 in.)
U/S 0.25
0.023 ± 0.069 mm (0.0009 ± 0.0027 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:
0.08 mm (0.0031 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace
the bearings. If necessary, grind or replace the crank±
shaft.
HINT: If using a standard bearing, replace it with one
having the same number marked on the connecting
rod cap. There are 3 sizes of standard bearings,
marked *11', ª2º and ª3º accordingly.
Standard sized bearing center wall thickness:
Mark ª1º
1.484 ± 1.488 mm (0.0584 ± 0.0586 in.)
Mark ª2º
1.488 ± 1.492 mm (0.0586 ± 0.0587 in.)
Mark ª3º
1.492 ± 1.498 mm (0.0587 ± 0.0589 in.)
(k) Completely remove the Plastigage.
(b) Cover the connecting rod bolts with a short piece of
hose to protect the crankshaft from damage.
(c) Push the piston, connecting rod assembly and upper
bearing through the top of the cylinder block. 7. REMOVE PISTON AND CONNECTING ROD
ASSEMBLIES
(a) Using a ridge reamer, remove all the carbon from the
top of the cylinder.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
1. Before removing MFI/SFI wiring connectors, termi±
nals, etc., first disconnect the power by either turning
the ignition switch OFF or disconnecting the battery
terminals.
HINT: Always check the diagnostic trouble code
before disconnecting the negative (±) terminal cable
from the battery.
2. When installing the battery, be especially careful not
to incorrectly connect the positive (+) and negative
(±) cables.
3. Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during
removal or installation. Handle all MFI/SFI parts care±
fully, especially the ECM.
4. Do not be careless during troubleshooting as there are
numerous transistor circuits and even slight terminal
contact can further troubles.
5. Do not open the ECM cover.
6. When inspecting during rainy weather, take care to
prevent entry of water. Also, when washing the
engine compartment, prevent water from getting on
the MFI/SFI parts and wiring connectors.
7. Parts should be replaced as an assembly.
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
1. Separation of the engine oil dipstick, oil filler cap, PCV
hose, etc. may cause the engine to run out of tune.
2. Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the parts of the
air induction system between the throttle body and
cylinder head will allow air suction and cause the
engine to run out of tune.
IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE
RADIO SYSTEM (HAM, CB, ETC.)
If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communica±
tion system, refer to the precaution in the IN section.
