9. Inspect the engine block deck surface for flatness
using a straight edge and a feeler gauge. Refer to
”Engine Specifications” in this section.
10. Inspect the bearing bore for concentricity and align-
ment using a bore gauge. Refer to ”Engine Specifi-
cations” in this section. If the bearing bore is be-
yond specifications, replace the engine block.
11. Inspect the engine block cylinder bore for wear,
runout, ridging and taper using a bore gauge. Refer
to ”Engine Specifications” in this section.
12. Inspect the engine block cylinder bore for glazing.
Lightly hone the cylinder bore as necessary.
Installation Procedure
1. Align the notch on the piston and the connecting
rod so that the proper sides will be facing the front
of the engine.
2. Install the piston pin guide through the piston and
the connecting rod.
3. Coat the piston pin with clean oil.
4. Install the piston pin into the opposite side of the
piston.
5. Install the piston pin into the piston and connecting
rod assembly using the piston pin service set
KM–427.
6. Select a set of new piston rings.
7. Measure the piston ring gap using a feeler gauge.
Refer to ”Engine Specifications” in this section.
8. Increase the piston ring gap by carefully filing off
excess material if the piston ring gap is below spec-
ifications.
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 a ring compressor 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.
20. Install the connecting rod cap bolts.
Tighten
Tighten the connecting rod bearing cap bolts to 25
NSm (18 lb–ft). Using the angular torque gauge
KM–470–B, tighten the bolts one turn of 30 degrees
plus one turn of 15 degrees.
