Valve seat repair:
A valve seat not producing a uniform contact with its valve or
showing width of seating contact that is out of specified
range must be repaired by regrinding or by cutting and
regrinding and finished by lapping.
1) EXHAUST VALVE SEAT: Use valve seat cutters (1) to make
two cuts as illustrated in figure. Two cutters must be used:
the first for making 15° angle, and the second for making 45°
angle. The second cut must be made to produce desired
seat width.
Seat width for exhaust valve seat
“a” : 1.1 – 1.3 mm (0.0433 – 0.0512 in.)
2) INTAKE VALVE SEAT: Use valve seat cutters to make three
cuts as illustrated in figure. Three cutters must be used: the
1st for making 15° angle, the 2nd for making 60° angle, and
3rd for making 45° angle. The 3rd cut (45°) must be made to
produce desired seat width.
Seat width for intake valve seat
“b” : 1.1 – 1.3 mm (0.0433 – 0.0512 in.)
3) VALVE LAPPING: Lap valve on seat in two steps, first with
coarse size lapping compound applied to face and the sec-
ond with fine-size compound, each time using valve lapper
according to usual lapping method.
Cylinder Head
Remove all carbon deposits from combustion chambers.
NOTE:
Do not use any sharp-edged tool to scrape off carbon
deposits. Be careful not to scuff or nick metal surfaces
when decarboning. The same applies to valves and valve
seats, too.

Rod bearing :
Inspect bearing shells for signs of fusion, pitting, burn or flak-
ing and observe contact pattern. Bearing shells found in
defective condition must be replaced.
Two kinds of rod bearing are available; standard size bear-
ing and 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.) undersize bearing. For identifi-
cation of undersize bearing, it is painted red at the position
as indicated in figure, undersize bearing thickness is 1.605 –
1.615 mm (0.0632 – 0.0635 in.) at the center of it.
Rod bearing clearance:
1) Before checking bearing clearance, clean bearing and crank
pin.
2) Install bearing in connecting rod and bearing cap.
3) Place a piece of gauging plastic (1) to full width of crank pin
as contacted by bearing (parallel to crankshaft), avoiding oil
hole.
4) Install rod bearing cap (1) to connecting rod.
When installing cap, be sure to point arrow mark (2) on cap
to crankshaft pulley side, as shown in figure. After applying
engine oil to rod bolts and tighten cap nuts (3) gradually as
follows.
a) Tighten all cap nuts to 15 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft).
b) Retighten them to 45°.
c) Repeat step b).
Tightening torque
Connecting rod bearing cap nuts
(a) : 15 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft) and extra tightening 45°
twice
5) Remove cap and using a scale (1) on gauging plastic (2)
envelope, measure gauging plastic width at the widest point
(clearance).
If clearance exceeds its limit, use a new standard size bear-
ing and remeasure clearance.
Connecting rod bearing clearance
Standard : 0.029 – 0.047 mm (0.0011 – 0.0019 in.)
Limit : 0.065 mm (0.0026 in.)
1. Red paint

6) If clearance can not be brought to within its limit even by
using a new standard size bearing, regrind crankpin to
undersize and use 0.25 mm undersize bearing.
ASSEMBLY
1) Install piston pin to piston (1) and connecting rod (2):
a) After applying engine oil to piston pin and piston pin holes
in piston and connecting rod.
b) Fit connecting rod as shown in figure.
c) Insert piston pin to piston and connecting rod.
d) Install piston pin circlips (3).
2) Install piston rings to piston :
a) As indicated in figure, 1st and 2nd rings have “T” mark
respectively. When installing these piston rings to piston,
direct marked side of each ring toward top of piston.
b) 1st ring (1) differs from 2nd ring (2) in thickness, shape and
color of surface contacting cylinder wall.
Distinguish 1st ring from 2nd ring by referring to figure.
c) When installing oil ring (3) install spacer first and then two
rails.
3) After installing three rings (1st, 2nd and oil rings), distribute
their end gaps as shown in figure. NOTE:
After checking the rod bearing clearance, make sure to
check connecting rod bolt diameter.
Refer to “Inspection” of “Connecting Rod”.
NOTE:
Circlip should be installed with its cut part facing as
shown in figure. Install so that circlip end gap comes
within such range as indicated by arrow.

Flywheel
If ring gear is damaged, cracked or worn, replace flywheel.
If the surface contacting clutch disc is damaged, or exces-
sively worn, replace flywheel.
Check flywheel for face runout with a dial gauge.
If runout exceeds its limit, replace flywheel.
Flywheel runout
Limit : 0.2 mm (0.0079 in.)
Sensor Plate
Check sensor plate for crack or damage. If malcondition is
found, replace it.
Cylinder Block
Distortion of gasketed surface
Using straightedge and thickness gauge, check gasketed
surface for distortion and, if flatness exceeds its limit, correct
it.
Cylinder block flatness
Limit : 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
Honing or reboring cylinders
1) When any cylinder needs reboring, all other cylinders must
also be rebored at the same time.
2) Select oversized piston according to amount of cylinder
wear.
Oversize piston diameter
Size Piston diameter
Oversize 0.5078.453 – 78.468 mm

INSTALLATION
1) Clean mating surfaces of fuel pump assembly and fuel tank.
2) Install new gasket (2) and plate (3) to fuel pump assembly
(1) then install fuel pump assembly to fuel tank.
Tightening torque
Fuel pump assembly bolts (a) : 10 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 7.5 lb-ft)
3) Connect wire harness coupler (2) and fuel vapor hose (3) to
fuel pump assembly (1).
4) Install fuel tank to vehicle. Refer to “Fuel Tank” in this sec-
tion. CAUTION:
While removing fuel level gauge, do not contact resis-
tor plate (2) or deform arm (3). It may cause fuel level
gauge to fail.
When removing grommet from fuel tube or bracket sub
assembly, be very careful not to cause damage to
grommet installed section (sealed section in bore).
Should it be damaged, replace it with new one, or fuel
will leak from that part.
NOTE:
When removing fuel level gauge, press snap-fit part (1)
and slide it in the arrow direction as shown in figure.
When installing fuel level gauge to housing, fit protru-
sion (4) of fuel level gauge in groove (5) in housing and
slide it up till lug (6) fits in window (7) securely. Refer to
figure shown.

General Description
Cranking Circuit
Diagnosis
Diagnosis Table
Possible symptoms due to starting system trouble would be as follows:
Starting motor does not run (or runs slowly)
Starting motor runs but fails to crank engine
Abnormal noise is heard
Proper diagnosis must be made to determine exactly where the cause of each trouble lies.....in battery, wiring
harness, (including starting motor switch), starting motor or engine.
Do not remove motor just because starting motor does not run. Check following items and narrow down scope
of possible causes.
1) Condition of trouble
2) Tightness of battery terminals (including ground cable connection on engine side) and starting motor termi-
nals
3) Discharge of battery
4) Mounting of starting motor
