CLEANING AND INSPECTION
CYLINDER HEAD COVERS
Remove any original sealer from the cover sealing
surface of the engine cylinder head.
Remove all residue from the sealing surface using
a clean, dry cloth.
ROCKER ARMS AND PUSH RODS
CLEANING
Clean all the components (Fig. 69) with cleaning
solvent.
Use compressed air to blow out the oil passages in
the rocker arms and push rods.
INSPECTION
Inspect the pivot surface area of each rocker arm.
Replace any that are scuffed, pitted, cracked or
excessively worn.
Inspect the valve stem tip contact surface of each
rocker arm and replace any rocker arm that is deeply
pitted.
Inspect each push rod end for excessive wear and
replace as required. If any push rod is excessively
worn because of lack of oil, replace it and inspect the
corresponding hydraulic tappet for excessive wear.
Inspect the push rods for straightness by rolling
them on a flat surface or by shining a light between
the push rod and the flat surface.
A wear pattern along the length of the push rod is
not normal. Inspect the engine cylinder head for
obstruction if this condition exists.

(.0019 in.).
(2) Check piston pin bores in piston for roundness.
Make 3 checks at 120É intervals. Maximum out of
roundness .05mm (.0019in.).
(3) The piston diameter should be measured
approximately 15 mm (.590 in.) up from the base.
(4) Skirt wear should not exceed 0.1 mm (.00039
in.).
(5) The clearance between the cylinder liner and
piston should not exceed 0.25 mm (.0009 in.).
(6) Make sure the weight of the pistons does not
differ by more than 5 g.
CONNECTING ROD

their respective connecting rods ensuring that the
serrations on the cap and reference marks are
aligned.
(2) Tighten bearing cap bolts to 29 N´m (21 ft. lbs.)
plus 60É.
(3) Check and record internal diameter of crank
end of connecting rod.
Note: When changing connecting rods, all four
must have the same weight and be stamped with the
same number.Replacement connecting rods will
only be supplied in sets of four.
(4) Connecting rods are supplied in sets of four
since they all must be of the same weight category.
Max allowable weight difference is 18 gr.NOTE:On
one side of the big end of the con-rod there is a two-
digit number which refers to the weight category. On
the other side of the big end there is a four digitnumber on both the rod and the cap. These numbers
must both face the camshaft as well as the recess on
the piston crown (Fig. 76). Lightly heat the piston in
oven. Insert piston pin in position and secure it with
provided snap rings.The Four digit numbers
marked on con rod big end and rod cap must
be on the same side as the camshaft (Fig. 76).
After having coated threads with Molyguard, tighten

(3) If internal diameter of original bearing is being
checked and figures are not within specifications,
new bearings must be used.
(4) Check crankshaft main bearing journals to
bearing clearances. Clearances of main bearings is
.03 to .088mm (.0011 to .0035 in.).
OIL PAN
Remove all gasket material from cylinder block. Be
careful not gouge pan sealing surface.
CYLINDER LINER
INSPECTION
The cylinder walls should be checked for out-of-
round and taper with dail bore gauge. The cylinder
bore out-of-round is 0.100 mm (.0039 inch) maximum
and cylinder bore taper is 0.100 mm (0.0039 inch)
maximum. If the cylinder walls are badly scuffed or
scored, new liners should be installed and honed, and
new pistons and rings fitted.
Measure the cylinder bore at three levels in direc-
tions A and B (Fig. 79). Top measurement should be
10 mm (3/8 inch) down and bottom measurement
should be 10 mm ( 3/8 inch.) up from bottom of bore.
