• Check the valve spring pressure at the specified spring height.
• If measurement is not within specifications, replace the valve spring. Limit : Less than 2.2 mm (0.087 in)

• Measure diameter of crankshaft pin using suitable tool.
• If measurement is out of standard, measure connecting rod bear-
ing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Follow the "CON-
NECTING ROD BUSHING OIL CLEARANCE (SMALL END)"
procedure.
OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER OF CRANKSHAFT
• Measure dimensions at four di fferent points as shown on each
journal and pin.
• Out-of-roundness is indicated by the difference in dimension
between ″X″ and ″Y″ at ″A″ and ″B″ .
• Taper is indicated by the difference in dimension between ″A ″ and
″ B″ at ″X ″ and ″Y″ .
• If measured value exceeds the standard, correct or replace crankshaft.
• If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected journal or pin. Then select the main bearing or connecting rod bearing. Follow the "MAIN BEA RING OIL CLEARANCE" or " CONNECTING ROD BEAR-
ING OIL CLEARANCE" procedure.
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT
• Place a V-block on a precise flat table to support the journals on both ends of the crankshaft.
• Measure at No. 3 journal using suitable tool.
• While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer.
• Half of the movement shows the runout.
• If measurement exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
• Install connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and cap. Tighten connecting rod bolts to the specified
torque. Refer to EM-82, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
Measure inside diameter of connecting rod bearing.
(Oil clearance) = (Inside diameter of connecting rod bearing) –
(Crankshaft pin diameter)
• If clearance cannot be adjusted wit hin the standard, grind crank-
shaft pin and use undersized bearing. Refer to EM-101, "
How to
Select Piston and Bearing".

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING
When Cylinder Block is Reused
1. Measure cylinder block bore diameter.
2. Determine the bore grade by comparing the measurement with the values under the “Cylinder bore diam-
eter” of the piston selection table.
Piston Selection Table
Unit: mm (in)
NOTE:
• The piston is available together with piston pin as an assembly.
• The piston pin (piston pin bore) grade is provided only for the parts installed at the plant. For service parts, no grades can be selected (only 0 grade is available).
• Hone the cylinder to obtain specified clearance between the piston and cylinder bore.
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING
When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used
1. Apply the big end inside diameter grade stamped on the con- necting rod side face to the row in the “Connecting Rod Bearing
Selection Table”.
2. Apply the pin diameter grade stamped on the crankshaft front side to the column in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection
Table”.
3. Read the symbol at the cross point of the selected row and col-
umn in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table".
4. Apply the symbol obtained to the "Connecting Rod Bearing Grade Table" to select.
When Crankshaft and Connecting Rod are Reused
1. Measure dimensions of the big end inside diameter of the connecting rod and diameter of the crankshaftpin individually.
2. Apply the measured dimension to the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table”.
3. The following steps are the same as in “When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used”. Follow the "HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING" procedure.
Grade number (Mark) 12 3
Cylinder bore diameter 98.000-98.010 (3.8583-3.8587) 98.010-98.020 (3.8587-3.8590) 98.020-98.030 (3.8590-3.8594)
Piston diameter 97.980-97.990 (3.8575-3.8579) 97.990-98.000 (3.8579-3.8583) 98.000-98.010 (3.8583-3.8587)

Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000001538868
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and
remove the old liquid gasket sealing using Tool.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
• Tap the seal cutter to insert it (1).
• In areas where the Tool is difficult to use, lightly tap to slide it (2).
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket application surface and the mating surface using suitable tool.
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the
liquid gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign material.
3. Attach the liquid gasket tube to the Tool. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply the liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location with the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply theliquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the liquid gasket inside
the holes. If specified in the procedure, it should also be
applied outside the holes.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling the engine with engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them.
