9. Measure the piston ring side clearance using a feel-
er gauge. Refer to ”Engine Specifications’’ in this
section.
10. If the piston ring is too thick, try another piston ring.
11. If no piston ring can be found that fits to specifica-
tions, the piston ring may be ground to size with
emery paper placed on a sheet of glass.
12. Install a piston oil ring, the expander, then the sec-
ond piston oil ring to the bottom ring groove of the
piston.
13. Install the second compression ring to the middle
ring groove of the piston.
14. Install the top compression ring to the top ring
groove of the piston.
15. Use a piston ring expander to install the piston
rings. Do not expand the piston rings beyond the
expansion necessary for installation.
16. Stagger the piston oil rings, the oil ring rail gaps,
the second compression ring, and the top compres-
sion ring in relation to the notch on the top of the
piston.
17. Lubricate the cylinder wall and the piston rings with
clean engine oil.
18. Install the piston using the universal piston ring
compressor J–8037 and a wood handle. Guide the
lower connecting rod end to prevent damaging the
crankshaft journal.
19. Install the connecting rod cap and bearings. Refer
to ”Crankshaft Bearings and Connecting Rod Bear-
ings – Gauging Plastic” in this section.

Valve Grind
1. Ensure that there are no crater line burns on the
valve cone.
2. The valve may be reground only two times. Do not
grind the valve stem end.
3. Ensure that the angle at the valve face is 45 de-
grees.
4. Inspect the assembly height of the intake valves
and the exhaust valves.
Valve Guide – Ream
1. Measure the diameter of the valve guide using
gauge MKM–571–B and a commercially available
inside micrometer.
Important : Valve oversizes may already have been fitted
in production.
2. An oversize service code is on the valve guide and
the valve stem end. The following table gives the
correct size, reamer, and production code for each
service.

3. Ream the valve guide from the upper side of the
cylinder head to the next oversize.
4. After reaming, cross out the code and emboss the
valve guide with the new code.
Valve Seat – Cut
1. Place the cylinder head on wooden blocks.
2. Cut the intake and the exhaust valve seats using
the guide drift KM–340–7 as follows:
S Valve seat – A 45–degree surface using the cut-
ter KM–340–13.
S Upper correction angle – A 30–degree surface
using the cutter KM–340–13.
S Lower correction angle – A 60–degree surface
using the cutter KM–340–26.
3. Clean the chippings from the cylinder head.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
ON–VEHICLE SERVICE
DRAINING AND REFILLING THE
COOLING SYSTEM
CAUTION : Do not remove the surge tank cap while
the engine and the radiator are hot. Scalding fluid and
steam may be blown out under pressure.
1. Place a pan below the vehicle to catch the draining
coolant.
2. Remove the surge tank cap.
3. Unplug the drain cock.
CAUTION : Dispose of the used coolant to a used
coolant holding tank to be picked up with the used oil
for disposal. Never pour the used coolant down the
drain. Ethylene glycol antifreeze is an extremely toxic
chemical. Disposing of it into the sewer system or the
ground water can contaminate the local environment.
4. Catch the escaping fluid in a drain pan.
5. Remove all sludge and dirt from inside the surge
tank. Refer to ”Surge Tank” in this section.
6. Plug the drain cock.
7. Add the clean water to the surge tank.
8. Fill the tank slowly so that the upper reservoir hose
remains above the water line. This allows the air
inside the cooling system to escape.
9. Start the engine.
10. Run the engine until the thermostat opens. You can
tell the thermostat is open when both radiator
hoses are hot to the touch.
11. Stop the engine.
12. Repeat Steps 1 through 9 until the drained water is
clear and free of coolant and rust.
Notice : Never use an antifreeze mixture more concen-
trated than 60 percent antifreeze to 40 percent water. The
solution freezing point increases above this concentration.
13. Fill the cooling system through the surge tank with
a mixture of ethylene glycol antifreeze and water.
The mixture must be at least 50 percent antifreeze,
but not more than 60 percent antifreeze.
14. Fill the surge tank to the specified MAX fill mark on
the outside of the tank.

GENRATOR OUTPUT TEST
1. Perform the generator system test. Refer to ”Gen-
erator System Check”in this section.
2. Replace the generator if it fails that test. Refer to
”Generator” in the On–Vehicle Service portion of
this section. If it passes the test, perform the on–
vehicle output check which follows.
Important : Always check the generator for output before
assuming that a grounded ”L” terminal circuit has dam-
aged the regulator.
3. Attach a digital multimeter, an ammeter, and a car-
bon pile load to the vehicle.
Important : Be sure the vehicle battery is fully charged,
and the carbon pile load is turned off.
4. With the ignition switch in the OFF position, check
and record the battery voltage.
5. Remove the harness connector from the generator.
6. Turn the ignition to RUN with the engine not run-
ning. Use a digital multimeter to check for voltage in
the harness connector ”L” terminal.
7. The reading should be near the specified battery
voltage of 12 volts. If the voltage is too low, check
the indicator
L" terminal circuits for open and
grounded circuits causing voltage loss. Correct any
open wires, terminal connections, etc., as neces-
sary. Refer to”Charging System” in this section.
8. Attach the generator harness connector.
9. Run the engine at a moderate idle, and measure
the voltage across the battery terminals. The read-
ing should be above that recorded in step 14, but
less than 16 volts. If the reading is over 16 volts or
below the previous reading, replace the generator.
Refer to”Generator” in the On–Vehicle Service sec-
tion.
10. Run the engine at a moderate idle, and measure
the generator amperage output.
11. Turn on the carbon pile, and adjust it to obtain the
maximum amps while maintaining the battery volt-
age above 13 volts.
12. If the reading is within 15 amps of the generator’s
rating noted on the generator, the generator is
good. If not, replace the generator. Refer to”Gener-
ator” in the On–Vehicle Service section.
13. With the generator operating at the maximum out-
put, measure the voltage between the generator
housing and the battery negative terminal. The volt-
age drop should be 0.5 volt or less. If the voltage
drop is more than 0.5 volt, check the ground path
from the generator housing to the negative battery
cable.
14. Check, clean, tighten, and recheck all of the ground
connections.
GENERATOR SYSTEM CHECK
When operating normally, the generator indicator lamp will
come on when the ignition is in RUN position and go out
when the engine starts. If the lamp operates abnormally
or if an undercharged or overcharged battery condition oc-
curs, the following procedure may be used to diagnose the
charging system. Remember that an undercharged bat-
tery is often caused by accessories being left on overnight
or by a defective switch that allows a lamp, such as a trunk
or a glove box lamp, to stay on.
Diagnose the generator with the following procedure:
1. Visually check the belt and the wiring.
2. With the ignition in the ON position and the engine
stopped, the charge indicator lamp should be on. If
not, detach the harness at the generator and
ground the ”L” terminal in the harness with a 5–am-
pere jumper lead.
S If the lamp lights, replace the generator. Refer to
”Generator” in the On–Vehicle Service section.
S If the lamp does not light, locate the open circuit
between the ignition switch and the harness
connector. The indicator lamp bulb may be
burned out.
3. With the ignition switch in the ON position and the
engine running at moderate speed, the charge indi-
cator lamp should be off. If not, detach the wiring
harness at the generator.
S If the lamp goes off, replace the generator. Re-
fer to ”Generator” in the On–Vehicle Service
section.
S If the lamp stays on, check for a short to ground
in the harness between the connector and the
indicator lamp.
Important : Always check the generator for output before
assuming that a grounded ”L” terminal circuit has dam-
aged the regulator. Refer to”Generator” in the Unit Repair
section.
