• Measure outer diameters (d1, d2)
at the two positions as shown.
• Measure d2 within the range (A).
• If the value difference (d1 - d2) exceeds the limit, replace the bal-
ancer unit bolt with a new one.
INSTALLATION
1. Make sure the crankshaft key points straight up.
2. Install the balancer unit and tighten the bolts in the numerical order as shown:
CAUTION:
• When reusing a bolt, check its outer diameter before installation. Follow the Balan cer Unit Bolt Outer Diameter
procedure.
• Apply new engine oil to threads and seating surfaces of bolts.
• Check tightening angle with an angle wrench (A) or a pro- tractor. Do not make judgme nt by visual check alone.
3. Install the crankshaft sprocket (1) and timing chain (2) for the balancer unit.
• Make sure that the crankshaft sprocket (1) is positioned with
mating marks (A) on the block and sprocket meeting at the
top.
• Install it by lining up mating marks on each sprocket (A), (C) and timing chain (B), (D).

NOTE:
The following procedures explain how to disassem ble the engine with the engine stand fastened to the bell
housing. Some steps may be different if using a different type of engine stand.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove the engine and transaxle as an assembly from the vehicle, and separate the transaxle from the
engine. Refer to EM-84, "Removal and Installation"
.
2. Remove the drive plate. Hold the crankshaft using Tool (A) and use a suitable tool to remove the bolts.
3. Remove pilot converter using Tool.
4. Remove the rear oil seal. Refer to EM-72, "Removal and Installation of Rear Oil Seal"
.
5. Mount the engine on a suitable engine stand (A). CAUTION:
• Use an engine stand that has a load capacity large
enough for supporting the engine weight [approximately
135 kg (298 lb) or more].
• Before removing the hanging chains, check the engine
stand is stable and there is no risk of overturning.
NOTE:
The figure shows an example of widely used engine stand (A)
that can support mating surface of transaxle with drive plate
removed.
• Remove the following parts if the engine stand load capacity is not adequate, to reduce the potential risk of overturning stand:
- Intake manifold. Refer to EM-30, "Removal and Installation"
.
- Exhaust manifold. Refer to EM-33, "Removal and Installation"
.
- Rocker cover. Refer to EM-45, "Removal and Installation"
.
6. Drain any remaining engine oil and coolant from the engine.
7. Remove the exhaust manifold and three way catalyst assembly. Refer to EM-33, "Removal and Installa-
tion".
8. Remove the intake manifold and fuel tube assembly. Refer to EM-30, "Removal and Installation"
.

16. Remove the piston and connecting rod assemblies.
a. Position the crankshaft and corresponding connecting rod, to be removed, to the bottom dead center stroke.
b. Remove the connecting rod cap. Number the cap so it can be assembled in the same position.
c. Using a hammer handle or similar tool, push the piston and con- necting rod assembly out of the top of the cylinder block. Num-
ber the piston and rod so it can be assembled in the same
position.
• Before removing the piston and connecting rod assembly,
check the connecting rod side clearance. Refer to EM-96,
"Inspection After Disassembly".
17. Remove the connecting rod bearings. If reusing, num ber them so they can be assembled in the same
position and direction.
CAUTION:
• When removing them, note the installation position. Keep them in the correct order.
18. Remove the piston rings from the piston. • Use a piston ring expander.
• Before removing the piston rings, check the piston ring side
clearance. Refer to EM-96, "Inspection After Disassembly"
.
CAUTION:
• When removing the piston rings, be careful not to damage
the piston.
• Be careful not to damage piston rings by expanding them excessively, if reusing them.
