5. Piston
The piston is made of aluminum alloy and skirt area is made compact and lightweight.
The piston head portion uses a taper squish shape to improve the fuel combustion efficiency.
The piston skirt has been coated with resin to reduce the friction loss.
6. Connecting Rod
The connecting rods and caps are made of
high-strength steel for weight reduction.
Nut-less type plastic region tightening bolts are
used on the connecting rod for a lighter design.
The connecting rod bearings are reduced in
width to reduce friction.

4. Cylinder Block
The cylinder block is made of aluminum alloy, so it is lightweight.
The cylinder block has a bank angle of 60, a bank offset of 36.6 mm (1.441 in.) and a bore pitch of 105.5
mm (4.15 in.), resulting in a compact block in its length and width even for its displacement.
Installation bosses of the two knock sensors are located on the inside of left and right banks.
A water passage has been provided between the cylinder bores. By allowing the engine coolant to flow
between the cylinder bores, this construction enables the temperature of the cylinder walls to be kept
uniform.

6. Connecting Rod and Connecting Rod Bearing
Connecting rods that have been forged for high strength are used for weight reduction.
Knock pins are used at the mating surfaces of the bearing caps of the connecting rod to minimize the
shifting of the bearing caps during assembly.
The connecting rods and caps are made of high-strength steel for weight reduction.
Nutless-type plastic region tightening bolts are used on the connecting rods for a lighter design.
An aluminum bearing is used for the connecting rod bearings.
The connecting rod bearings are reduced in width to reduce friction.
7. Crankshaft
A crankshaft made of forged steel, which excels in rigidity and wear resistance, is used.
The crankshaft has 4 journals and 5 balance weights.
All pin and journal fillets are IH-finished to maintain adequate strength.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD FOR WARPAGE
(a) Using a precision straightedge and feeler gauge,
measure the warpage of the contact surfaces of the
cylinder block and manifolds.
Maximum warpage:
0.08 mm (0.0032 in.)
If the warpage is greater than the maximum, replace
the cylinder head sub-assembly.
2. INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD FOR CRACKS
(a) Using a dye penetrant, inspect the combustion
chamber, intake ports, exhaust ports and cylinder
block surface for cracks.
If cracked, replace the cylinder head.
3. INSPECT VALVE SEAT
(a) Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
(b) Lightly press the valve against the seat.
NOTICE:
Do not turn the valve.
(c) Check the valve face and seat in accordance with
the following procedure.
(1) If blue appears 360
around the face, the valve
is concentric. If not, replace the valve.
(2) If blue appears 360
around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface
the valve seat (see page EM-87).
(3) Check that the seat contact is in the middle of
the valve face with a width.

REPAIR
1. REPAIR VALVE SEATS
(a) If the seating is too high on the valve face, use 30

and 45
cutters to correct the seat.
(b) If the seating is too low on the valve face, use 75

and 45
cutters to correct the seat.

(c) Lap the valve and valve seat by hand with an
abrasive compound.
(d) Recheck the valve seating position.

20. INSPECT INTAKE VALVE SEAT
(a) Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
(b) Lightly press the valve face against the valve seat.
(c) Check the valve face and valve seat by using the
following procedure.
(1) If Prussian blue appears around the entire
valve face, the valve face is concentric. If not,
replace the valve.
(2) If Prussian blue appears around the entire
valve seat, the guide and valve face are
concentric. If not, resurface the valve seat.
(3) Check that the valve seat contacts in the
middle of the valve face with the width between
1.1 and 1.5 mm (0.043 and 0.059 in.).
21. INSPECT EXHAUST VALVE SEAT
(a) Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
(b) Lightly press the valve face against the valve seat.
(c) Check the valve face and valve seat by using the
following procedure.
(1) If Prussian blue appears around the entire
valve face, the valve face is concentric. If not,
replace the valve.
(2) If Prussian blue appears around the entire
valve seat, the guide and valve face are
concentric. If not, resurface the valve seat.
(3) Check that the valve seat contacts in the
middle of the valve face with the width between
1.2 and 1.6 mm (0.047 and 0.063 in.).
22. INSPECT INNER COMPRESSION SPRING
(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of
the inner compression spring.
Standard free length:
45.46 mm (1.7898 in.)
If the free length is not as specified, replace the
spring.
(b) Using a steel square, measure the deviation of the
inner compression spring.
Maximum deviation:
1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
Maximum angle (reference):
2
If the deviation is greater than the maximum,
replace the spring.

(c) Position the piston rings so that the ring ends are as
shown in the illustration.
NOTICE:
Do not align the ring ends.
