8) Install guide hose (1) over threads of rod bolts.
This prevents damage to bearing journal and rod bolt
threads when removing connecting rod.
9) Decarbon top of cylinder bore before removing piston from
cylinder.
10) Push piston and connecting rod assembly out through the
top of cylinder bore.
DISASSEMBLY
1) Using piston ring expander, remove two compression rings
(Top and 2nd) and oil ring from piston.
2) Remove piston pin from connecting rod.
Ease out piston pin circlips (1), as shown.
Force piston pin out.
CLEANING
Decarbon piston head and ring grooves, using a suitable tool.
INSPECTION
Cylinder
Inspect cylinder walls for scratches, roughness or ridges
which indicate excessive wear. If cylinder bore is very rough
or deeply scratched or ridged, rebore cylinder and use over-
size piston.

INSTALLATION
1) Apply engine oil to pistons, rings, cylinder walls, connecting
rod bearings and crankpins.
2) Install guide hoses (1) over connecting rod bolts.
These guide hoses protect crank pin and threads of rod bolt
from damage during installation of connecting rod and piston
assembly.
3) When installing piston and connecting rod assembly into cyl-
inder bore, point front mark on piston head to crankshaft pul-
ley side.
4) Install piston and connecting rod assembly into cylinder
bore. Use special tool (Piston ring compressor) to compress
rings. Guide connecting rod into place on crankshaft.
Using a hammer handle, tap piston head to install piston into
bore. Hold ring compressor firmly against cylinder block until
all piston rings have entered cylinder bore.

Fuel Delivery System
The fuel delivery system consists of the fuel tank (1), fuel pump (2), fuel filter (3), fuel pressure regulator (11),
delivery pipe (9) and fuel injectors (10).
The fuel in the fuel tank is pumped up by the fuel pump, filtered by the fuel filter and fed under pressure to each
injector through the delivery pipe.
As the fuel pressure applied to the injector (the fuel pressure in the fuel feed line) is always kept a certain
amount higher than the pressure in the intake manifold by the fuel pressure regulator, the fuel is injected into the
intake port of the cylinder head when the injector open according to the injection signal from ECM.
The fuel relieved by the fuel pressure regulator returns through the fuel return line (8) to the fuel tank.
Fuel pump
An in-tank type electric pump has been adopted for the fuel pump
(1). Incorporated in the pump assembly are;
Tank pressure control valve (2) which keeps the pressure in
the fuel tank constant, and prevents the fuel from spouting
and tank itself from being deformed.
Relief valve (3) which prevents the pressure in tank from ris-
ing excessively.
Fuel cut valve (4) which closes as the float rises so that the
fuel will not enter the canister when the fuel level in the tank
rises high depending on the fuel level in the tank and the
vehicle tilt angle.
Also, a fuel filter (5) is included and a fuel level gauge (6) is
attached.
