Inspection".
a. Position crankshaft pin corresponding to connecting rod to be removed onto the bottom dead center.
b. Remove connecting rod cap.
c. Using a hammer handle or similar tool, push piston and connect- ing rod assembly out to the cylinder head side.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to damage matching surface with connect-ing rod cap.
• Be careful not to damage the cylinder wall and crankshaft pin, resulting from an inte rference of the connecting rod
big end.
5. Remove connecting rod bearings. CAUTION:
Identify installation positions, and store them without mixing up.
6. Remove piston rings from piston. • Before removing piston rings, check the piston ring side clearance. Refer to EM-97, "
Inspection".
• Use suitable tool (A).
CAUTION:
• When removing piston rings, be careful not to damagethe piston.
• Be careful not to damage piston rings by expanding
them excessively.

18. Install knock sensor (1).
• Install connectors so that they are positioned towards the rearof the engine.
CAUTION:
• Never tighten bolt while holding the connector.
• If any impact by dropping is applied to knock sensor,
replace it with a new one.
NOTE:
• Make sure that there is no foreign material on the cylinder
block mating surface and the back surface of knock sensor.
• Make sure that knock sensor does not interfere with other parts.
19. Install crankshaft position sensor (POS) and cover. • Tighten bolts with it seated completely.
20. For the oil level gauge guide (1), fix the position (B) shown to the water inlet clip (A) after inserting to the cylinder block side.
21. Assembly is in the reverse order of disassembly after this step.

CRANKSHAFT END PLAY
• Measure the clearance between thrust bearings and crankshaft arm when crankshaft is moved fully forward or backward with a dial
indicator (A).
• If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace thrust bearings, and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft
also.
CONNECTING ROD SIDE CLEARANCE
• Measure the side clearance between connecting rod and crank-shaft arm with a feeler gauge (A).
• If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace connecting rod, and measure again. If it still exceeds the standard, replace crank-
shaft also.

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint Syst
em (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005930983
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and w hether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering W heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000005930984
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK ″ position.
• Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
