(6)If the plastigage measures too wide or too narrow, remove the upper half of the bearing, install a new,
complete bearing with the same color mark (select the color as shown in the next column), and recheck the
clearance.
Do not file, shim, or scrape the bearings or the caps to adjust clearance.
(7) If the plastigage shows the clearance is still incorrect, try the next larger or smaller bearing (the color listed
above or below that one), and check clearance again.
If the proper clearance cannot be obtained by using the appropriate larger or smaller bearings, replace the
crankshaft and start over.
If the marks are indecipherable because of an accumulation of dirt and dust, do not scrub them with a wire
brush or scraper. Clean them only with solvent or detergent.
Crankshaft bore mark location
Letters have been stamped on the block as a mark for the each size of the 4 main journal bores.
No.1 journal stamping mark starts from the front of the engine.
Use the size marks which are stamped on the block and the crankshaft for the journal bore inner diameter and
the journal outer diameter to choose the correct bearings.

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.

(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.

If the valve lift is not as specified, replace the thermostat.
ENGINE COOLANT REFILLING AND BLEEDING
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious scalding could be caused by hot fluid under high
pressure escaping from the radiator.
When pouring engine coolant, be sure to shut the relay box lid and not to let coolant spill on the electrical parts or
the paint. If any coolant spills, rinse it off immediately.
1. Make sure the engine and radiator are cool to the touch.
2. Open the radiator cap.
3. Loosen the drain plug, and drain the coolant.
4. Tighten the radiator drain plug securely.
5. Remove, drain and clean the reservoir tank.
6. Fill water slowly through the radiator cap. Push the upper/lower hoses of the radiator so as to bleed air easily.
7. Warm the engine until the cooling fan operates 2~3 times.
Accelerate the engine 2~3 times without load.
8. Wait until the engine is cold.
9. Repeat the steps 1~8 until the water drained is clean.
10. Fill fluid mixture with coolant and water(4 : 6) slowly through the radiator cap. Push the upper/lower hoses of the
radiator so as to bleed air easily.
11. Start the engine and run so coolant circulates.
When the cooling fan operates and coolant circulates, refill coolant through the radiator cap.
12. Repeat 11 until the cooling fan cycles 3 ~ 5 times and bleed air sufficiently out of the cooling system.

13.Install the radiator cap and fill the reservoir tank to the "MAX"(or "F") line with coolant.
14. Run the vehicle under idle until the cooling fan operates 2 ~ 3 times.
15. Stop the engine and wait until coolant gets cool.
16. Repeat 10 to 15 until the coolant level doesn't fall any more, bleeding air out of the cooling system.
Check the coolant level again in the reservoir tank for 2 ~ 3 days after replacing coolant.
CAP TESTING
1.Remove the radiator cap, wet its seal with engine coolant, and install it to a pressure tester.
2.Apply a pressure of 93 ~ 123kPa (0.95 ~ 1.25kgf/cm², 14 ~ 19psi).
3. Check for a drop in pressure.
4. If the pressure drops, replace the cap.

c.In order to preserve environment, used oil or used oil filter must be disposed only at designated disposal
sites.
1. Park the car on a level ground.
Start the engine and let it warm up.
2. Turn the engine off.
3. Drain engine oil.
(1) Remove the oil filler cap.
(2) After lifting the car, remove the oil drain plug(A) and drain oil into a container.
4. Replace the oil filter.
(1) Remove the oil filter(B).
(2)Check the part number of a new oil filter is as the same as that of the old one.
(3) Replace the oil filter.
(4) Tighten it slightly until the o - ring of the filter cap contacting on its position.
(5) Tighten it with the specified torque.
Tightening torque
16.7 ~ 24.5Nm(1.7 ~ 2.5kgf.m, 12.3 ~ 18.1lb- ft)
5. Refill with engine oil.
(1) Install the oil drain plug with a new gasket.
Tightening torque
34.3 ~ 44.1Nm (3.5 ~ 4.5kgf.m, 25.3 ~ 32.5lb- ft)

(3) Install the oil filler cap and the oil level gauge.
6. Start the engine and ensure that no oil is leaking from the drain plug or the oil filter.
7. Recheck engine oil level.
INSTALLATION
Oil pump case
1. Assembly the relief spring(B) and the relief plunger(C) and tighten the plug(A).

Always use a new O - ring.
8. Install the timing belt, the generator and the front muffler.
9. Install the front right side cover and the wheel and tire.
10. Fill with engine coolant.
11. Start engine and check for leaks.
12. Recheck engine coolant level.
INSPECTION
1.Check engine oil quality.
Check the oil for deterioration, entry of water, discoloring or thinning.
If the quality is visibly poor, replace oil.
2. Check the engine oil level.
After warning up the engine, make the engine stand still for five minutes or more. The oil level should be between
the 'L' and 'F' marks on the dipstick, then.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the "F" mark.
Do not fill with engine oil above the "F" mark.
