CYLINDER BLOCK
1.Remove gasket materials.
Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material from the top surface of the cylinder block.
2. Clean cylinder block
Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylinder block.
3. Inspect the top surface of cylinder block for flatness.
Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the surface contacting the cylinder head gasket for
warpage.
Flatness of cylinder block gasket surface
Standard : 0.03mm(0.0012in.) or less
4.Inspect cylinder bore diameter
Visually check the cylinder for vertical scratchs.
If deep scratches are present, replace the cylinder block or process the piston to be oversized.
5. Inspect the cylinder bore diameter
Using a cylinder bore gauge, measure the cylinder bore diameter at position in the thrust and axial directions.
Standard diameter
86.70 ~ 86.73mm (3.4134 ~ 3.4146in.)

6.Check the cylinder bore size code(A) on the cylinder block.
Class Size codeCylinder bore inner diameter
A A86.70 ~ 86.71mm
(3.4134 ~ 3.4138in.)
B B86.71 ~ 86.72mm
(3.4138 ~ 3.4142in.)
C C86.72 ~ 86.73mm
(3.4142 ~ 3.4146in.)
7. Check the piston size code(A) on the piston top face.

Standard diameter
86.67 ~ 87.00(3.4122 ~ 3.4252in.)
3.Calculate the difference between the cylinder bore inner diameter and the piston outer diameter.
Piston - to- cylinder clearance
0.02 ~ 0.04mm(0.0008 ~ 0.0016in.)
4. Inspect the piston ring side clearance.
Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between a new piston ring and the ring groove.
Piston ring side clearance
Standard
No.1 : 0.04 ~ 0.08mm (0.0016 ~ 0.0031in.)
No.2 : 0.03 ~ 0.07mm (0.0012 ~ 0.0027in.)
Oil ring : 0.06 ~ 0.15mm (0.0024 ~ 0.0059in.)
Limit
No.1 : 0.1mm (0.004in.)
No.2 : 0.1mm (0.004in.)
Oil ring : 0.2mm (0.008in.)
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the piston.
5. Inspect piston ring end gap.
To measure the piston ring end gap, insert a piston ring into the cylinder bore. Position the ring at right angles to
the cylinder wall by gently pressing it down with a piston. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge. If the gap exceeds
the service limit, replace the piston ring. If the gap is too large, recheck the cylinder bore diameter. If the bore is
over the service limit, the cylinder block must be replaced or bored
Piston ring end gap
Standard
No.1 : 0.15 ~ 0.30mm (0.0059 ~ 0.0118in.)
No.2 : 0.30 ~ 0.45m (0.0118 ~ 0.0177in.)
Oil ring : 0.20 ~ 0.70mm (0.0079 ~ 0.0275in.)
Limit

When reassembling the connecting rods and the caps, ensure the front marks on them.
4. Install the CKP sensor(A).
Tightening torque
6.9 ~ 9.8Nm(0.7 ~ 1.0kgf.m, 5.1 ~ 7.2lb - ft)
5.Install main bearings.
Upper bearings have the oil grooves of the oil holes; Lower bearings do not.
(1) Aligning the bearing claw with the claw groove of the cylinder block, push in the 4 upper bearings(A).

(2)Aligning the bearing claw with the claw groove of the main bearing cap, push in the 4 lower bearings(B) on the
bearing caps(A).
6.Install thrust bearings.
Install the 2 thrust bearings(A) under the No.3 journal position of the cylinder block with the oil grooves facing
outward.
7.Place crankshaft(A) on the cylinder block.
8.Place main bearing caps on cylinder block.
9. Install main bearing cap bolts.
(1) Install and uniformly tighten the bearing cap bolts, in two steps, in the sequence shown.
Tightening torque

M8 : 15.7Nm(1.6 kgf.m, 11.6lb- ft) + 90°
M10 : 29.4Nm(3.0 kgf.m, 21.7lb- ft)+ 90°
a.Use new main bearing cap bolt with engine oil applied.
b. If any of the bearing cap bolts are broken or deformed, replace it.
c. Washers have their direction(Up/Down)
d. Assemble the bearing cap bridge on which its arrow mark faces the engine front.
e. Before tightening, make the bearing caps be seated on the block firmly.
Use SST( 09221 - 4A000 ), install main bearing cap bolts.
(2) Check that the crankshaft turns smoothly.
10. Check crankshaft end play.
11. Install the piston and connecting rod assemblies.
a.Before installing the pistons, apply a coat of engine oil to the ring grooves and cylinder bores.
b. When installing the piston, ensure that the coat on the cylinder wall is not damaged or scratched.
(1) Install the ring compressor, check that the bearing is securely in place, then position the piston in the cylinder,
and tap it in using the wooden handle of a hammer.
(2) Stop inserting the piston when the ring inserted in the cylinder and check the alignment of the journal and the
connecting rod.
(3) Apply engine oil to the bolt threads. Install the rod caps with bearings, and torque the bolts.
