STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REPLACING ENGINE
CORE AND OIL GALLERY PLUGS
Using a blunt tool such as a drift and a hammer,
strike the bottom edge of the cup plug. With the cup
plug rotated, grasp firmly with pliers or other suit-
able tool and remove plug (Fig. 26).
CAUTION: Do not drive cup plug into the casting as
restricted cooling can result and cause serious
engine problems.
Thoroughly clean inside of cup plug hole in cylin-
der block or head. Be sure to remove old sealer.
Lightly coat inside of cup plug hole with Mopart
Stud and Bearing Mount. Make certain the new plug
is cleaned of all oil or grease. Using proper drive
plug, drive plug into hole so that the sharp edge of
the plug is at least 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) inside the
lead-in chamfer.It is not necessary to wait for curing of the sealant.
The cooling system can be refilled and the vehicle
placed in service immediately.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - MEASURING
CYLINDER BORES
NOTE: This must be done with engine completely
disassembled.
(1) Thoroughly clean all cylinder bores with appro-
priate cleaning solvent.
(2) Measure each cylinder at the three measuring
points shown (Fig. 27).
(3) Using the three measurment point, measure
cylinder in the longitudinal and in the transverse
direction (Fig. 27).
(4) Use the measurment and table below to group
cylinder bores:
Standard size 88.0 mm
Group code letter A 88.000-88.006 mm
Group code letter X 88.006-88.012 mm
Group code letter B 88.012-88.018 mm
Wear limit in longitudinal
in transverse direction0.020 mm
Permissible variation of
cylinder shape (when
new)0.000-0.014 mm

point toward the thrust collars of the crankshaft.
CAUTION: Thrust washers in the bearing cap each
have two retaining lugs as a anti-twist lock.
CAUTION: Oil thread and head contact surfaces of
bolts that retain the crankshaft bearing caps;
tighten bolts from inside to outside, beginning at
the fit bearing. Rotate crankshaft to check clear-
ance.
(1) Install crankshaft.
CAUTION: The crankshaft bearing caps are num-
bered consecutively, beginning with the first crank-
shaft bearing cap at the front of the engine.
