Installation Procedure
Important : For ease of installation of the piston pin, the
connecting rod should be heated to 2805C. Heat the upper
connecting rod only. Use commercial thermocolor materi-
al to determine the correct temperature. When the thermo-
color material changes from black to green, the tempera-
ture is correct for installation.
1. Align the notch on the piston and 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.
