(c) Inspect the piston ring end gap.
(1) Insert the piston ring into the cylinder bore.
(2) Using a piston, push the piston ring a little to the bot-
tom of the ring travel, 105 mm (4.13 in.) from the top
of the cylinder block.
(3) Using a feeler gauge, measure the end gap.
Standard end gap:
No.10.300 to 0.400 mm (0.0118 to 0.0157 in.)
No.20.400 to 0.550 mm (0.0157 to 0.0217 in.)
Oil (Side rail)0.130 to 0.380 mm (0.0051 to 0.0150 in.)
Maximum end gap:
No.11.10 mm (0.0433 in.)
No.21.30 mm (0.0512 in.)
Oil (Side rail)0.90 mm (0.0354 in.)
If the end gap is greater than maximum, replace the piston ring.
If the end gap is greater than maximum, even with a new piston
ring, rebore all the 8 cylinders (See page EM±116) or replace
the cylinder block.
(d) Inspect the piston pin fit.
At 60°C (140°F), you should be able to push the piston
pin into the piston pin hole with your thumb.
(e) Using a rod aligner and feeler gauge, check the connect-
ing rod alignment.
(1) Check for bend.
Maximum bend:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in.) per 100 mm (3.94 in.)
If bend is greater than maximum, replace the connecting rod as-
sembly.

(2) Check for twist.
Maximum twist:
0.15 mm (0.0059 in.) per 100 mm (3.94 in.)
If twist is greater than maximum, replace the connecting rod as-
sembly.
(f) Inspect the piston pin oil clearance.
(1) Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter
of the connecting rod bushing.
Bushing inside diameter:
22.005 to 22.014 mm (0.8663 to 0.8667 in.)
(2) Using a micrometer, measure the piston pin diame-
ter.
Piston pin diameter:
21.997 to 22.009 mm (0.8660 to 0.8664 in.)
(3) Subtract the piston pin diameter measurement from
the bushing inside diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance:
0.005 to 0.011 mm (0.0002 to 0.0004 in.)
Maximum oil clearance: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace the bush-
ing. If necessary, replace the piston and piston pin as a set.
(g) Using vernier calipers, measure the tension portion of the
connecting rod bolt.
Standard diameter:
7.200 to 7.300 mm (0.2835 to 0.2874 in.)
Minimum diameter: 7.00 mm (0.2756 in.)
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the bolt.

5. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT
(a) Inspect for circle runout.
(1) Place the crankshaft on V±blocks.
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout at
the center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.04 mm (0.0016 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, replace the crank-
shaft.
(b) Inspect the main journals and crank pins.
(1) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of each
main journal and crank pin.
Main journal diameter:
66.988 to 67.000 mm (2.6373 to 2.6378 in.)
Crank pin diameter:
51.982 to 52.000 mm (2.0465 to 2.0472 in.)
If the diameter is not as specified, check the oil clearance (See
page EM±101). If necessary, replace the crankshaft.
(2) Check each main journal and crank pin for taper
and out±of±round as shown.
Maximum taper and out±of±round:
0.02 mm (0.0008 in.)
If the taper and out±of±round is greater than maximum, replace
the crankshaft.

3. REPLACE CRANKSHAFT FRONT OIL SEAL (See
page LU±13)
4. REPLACE CRANKSHAFT REAR OIL SEAL
HINT:
There are 2 methods ((a) and (b)) to replace the oil seal.
(a) If the rear oil seal retainer is removed from the cylinder
block:
(1) Using a screwdriver and hammer, tap out the oil
seal.
(2) Using SST and a hammer, tap in a new oil seal until
its surface is flush with the rear oil seal retainer
edge.
SST 09223±56010
(3) Apply MP grease to the oil seal lip.
(b) If the rear oil seal retainer is installed to the cylinder block:
(1) Using a knife, cut off the oil seal lip.
(2) Using a screwdriver, pry out the oil seal.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the crankshaft. Tape the screw-
driver tip.

SEMBLIES
Using a piston ring compressor, push correctly the numbered
piston and connecting rod assemblies into each cylinder with
the front mark of the piston facing forward.
NOTICE:

HINT:
Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).
(c) Observe the following precautions when removing or
installing the injectors.
(1) Never reuse the O±ring.
(2) When placing a new O±ring on the injector, take
care not to damage it in any way.
(3) Coat a new O±ring with spindle oil or gasoline be-
fore installing. Never use engine, gear or brake oil.
(d) Install the injector to the delivery pipe and intake manifold
as shown in the illustration.
Before installing the injector, apply spindle oil or gasoline
on the place where the delivery pipe or the intake man-
ifold touches the O±ring of the injector.
(e) Observe the following when disconnecting the fuel tube
connector (quick type):
(1) Check if there is any dirt in the pipe and around the
connector before disconnecting the fuel tube con-
nector. If necessary, clean the dirt away.
(2) Disconnect the fuel pipe clamp from the connector.
(3) Be sure to disconnect them by hand.
(4) When the connector and the pipe are stuck, push
and pull the connector. Then disconnect and pull it
out. Do not use any tools at this time.
(5) Check if there is any dirt or other foreign matter on
the seal surface of the disconnected pipe. If neces-
sary, clean the dirt away.
(6) Do not damage the disconnected pipe and connec-
tor and prevent intrusion of foreign objects by cover-
ing them with a plastic bag.
