Assemble so that the front mark (A) on the piston head and
the cylinder number (D) on connecting rod are positioned as
shown in the figure.
a. Using snap ring pliers, install new snap ring to the groove of pis- ton rear side.
Insert it fully into groove to install.
b. Install piston to connecting rod. Using an industrial use dryer or similar tool, heat piston until piston pin can be pushed in by hand without
excess force [approximately 60 to 70 °C (140 to 158 °F)]. From the front to the rear, insert piston pin into
piston and connecting rod.
c. Install new snap ring to the groove of the piston front side. Insert it fully into groove to install.
After installing, check that connecting rod moves smoothly.
11. Using a piston ring expander (c ommercial service tool) (A),
install piston rings.
CAUTION:
When installing piston rings, be careful not to damage piston.
Be careful not to damage piston rings by expending them excessively.
If there is stamped mark on ri ng, mount it with marked side up.
Position each ring with the gap as shown in the figure referring to the piston front mark (D).
Check the piston ring side clearance. Refer to EM-115, "
Inspection".
12. Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and connecting rod bearing cap. CAUTION:
Be careful not to drop connecting r od bearing, and to scratch the surface.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006289585
The identification grade stamped on each part is the
grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimens ion accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.
For details of the measurement method of each part , the reuse standards and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, refer to the text.
PistonINFOID:0000000006289586
WHEN NEW CYLINDER BLOCK IS USED
Check the cylinder bore grade on the bottom face of the cylinder
block, and select the piston of the same grade.
NOTE:
Piston is available with piston pin as a set for the service part.
WHEN NEW CYLINDER BLOCK IS REUSED
1. Measure the cylinder bore inner diameter. Refer to EM-137, "CylinderBlock".

WHEN NEW CYLINDER BLOCK AND CRANKSHAFT ARE USED
1. Apply the main bearing housing grade on the bottom face of thecylinder block to the row in “MAIN BEARING SELECTION
TA B L E ” .
2. “MAIN BEARING SELECTION TABLE” columns correspond to
journal diameter grade on front side of crankshaft.
3. Select main bearing grade at the point where selected row and column meet in “MAIN BEARING SELEC- TION TABLE”.
CAUTION:
Initial clearance for No. 1, 5 journal and No. 2, 3, 4 journal is different. Use two different selection
table for each part.
No. 1, 5 journal and No. 2, 3, 4 journal have the same signs but different measures. Never con-
fuse.
4. Apply sign at crossing in above step 3 to “MAIN BEARING GRADE TABLE”.
NOTE:
“MAIN BEARING GRADE TABLE” applies to all journals.
Service parts are available as a set of both upper and lower.
WHEN CYLINDER BLOCK AND CRANKSHAFT ARE REUSED
1. Measure cylinder block main bearing housing inner diameter and crankshaft main journal diameter. Refer to EM-115, "
Inspection".
