Selection Procedure for Selective Part
Combination
LocationSelective part combination ItemMethod
Cylinder block - piston Piston and piston assembly
(Part No. is given to a piston and piston pin as a set.) Piston grade (Piston outer
diameter) Refer to ªSelective combination
chartº.
IIdentification grade stamped on each part represents initial
dimension of new part. This grade will not be applied to a
reused part.
I Measure correct dimensions of a reused or modified part, then
refer to ªSelective combination chartº in this manual to identify
the grade.
I Refer to the applicable pages for measurement method for
each part, standards for reuse, and selecting method for selec-
tive part combination.
Disassembly
1. Remove engine assembly from vehicle.
Refer to EM-63, ªENGINE REMOVALº.
2. Remove pilot bushing from flywheel using pilot bearing puller (SST), if necessary (M/T model).
3. Install engine to engine stand (SST).
1) Remove flywheel (M/T model) or drive plate (A/T model).
I Using ring gear stopper (SST), secure ring gear, and remove
mounting bolts.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble flywheel.
I Flywheel has a two-piece structure. When being pressed
forward/backward, or twisted in rotating direction, transmission-
side mass will be moved with audible sound. This is not a
problem.
2) Remove pilot converter (A/T model) and rear plate.
