2. Install oil jet relief valve.
3. Install oil jet.
lAlign knock pin on back of oil jet with hole on block when
installing oil jet.
4. Install main bearings and thrust bearings.
a. Remove contamination, dust and oil from bearing mounting
positions on cylinder block and main bearing caps.
b. Install thrust bearings on both sides of No. 3 housing on cylinder
block.
lInstall thrust bearings with oil groove facing to crankshaft arm
(outside).
c. Being careful with the direction, install main bearings.
lInstall main bearings with the oil holes and grooves onto the
cylinder block side, and those without oil holes and grooves
onto the main cap side.
lWhile installing bearings, apply engine oil to bearing surfaces
(inside). Do not apply oil to rear surfaces, but clean them
completely.
lAlign stopper notches on bearings to install them.
lCheck that the oil holes on the cylinder block body are mated
with the oil hole positions on the bearings.
5. Install crankshaft to cylinder block.
lMake sure crankshaft rotates smoothly by hand.
6. Install main bearing caps.
lIdentify main bearing caps by the punched mark. Install cor-
rectly matching the journal No. on the bearing cap and the
journal with the front mark facing forward.
lMain bearing caps are commonly processed with the cylinder
block. Therefore, caps and cylinder block should be replaced
as a set.
7. Check the main bearing cap bolts for deformation.
Refer toEM-207, "
MAIN BEARING CAP BOLT DEFORMA-
TION".

pressed down by finger touch. Then insert piston pins into piston and connecting rod from front side of
piston toward rear.
lAssemble piston and connecting rod with front mark of piston
crown and cylinder No. stamped on connecting rod being
positioned as shown in the figure.
c. Install snap rings to front side of pistons.
lRefertoabovestepaforprecautiononsnapringinstallation.
lAfter installation, check connecting rods for smooth move-
ment.
11. Use piston ring expander to install piston rings.
CAUTION:
When installing, prevent piston from being damaged.
lInstall top ring and second ring with stamped surfaces facing
upward.
lInstall rings so that three closed gap position 120°apart one
another.
lClosed gaps do not need to face in a specific directions, as long as each are positioned 120°apart.

Checking Exhaust SystemEBS00AZ6
Check exhaust pipes, muffler and mounting for improper attachment,
leaks, cracks, damage or deterioration.
Removal and InstallationEBS003DN
CAUTION:
lBe sure to use genuine exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed for heat
resistance, corrosion resistance and shape.
lPerform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system will be hot
just after the engine stops.
lBe careful not to cut your hand on the insulator edge.

PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTIONS
PFP:00001
CautionEDS0005P
Observe the following precautions when disassembling and servicing drive shaft.
lThe wheel joint cannot be disassembled. Do not attempt to disassemble it.
lPerform work in a location which is as dust-free and dirt-free as possible.
lBefore disassembling and servicing, clean the outside of parts.
lThe disassembly and service location must be clean. Care must be taken to prevent parts from becoming
dirty and to prevent the entry of foreign objects.
lDisassembled parts must be carefully reassembled in the correct order. If work is interrupted, a clean
cover must be placed over parts.
lPaper shop cloths must be used. Fabric shop cloths must not be used because of the danger of lint adher-
ing to parts.
lDisassembled parts (except for rubber parts) should be cleaned with kerosene which shall be removed by
blowing with air or wiping with paper shop cloths.
Precautions for Brake SystemEDS0 00 I0
lWhen installing rubber parts, final tightening must be carried out
under unladen condition* with tires on ground.
*: Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack,
hand tools and mats in designated positions.
lUse flare nut wrench when removing or installing brake tubes.
lAfter installing removed suspension parts, check wheel align-
ment and adjust if necessary.
lAlways torque brake lines when installing.
