Piston
lnstallation
'1.
Before installing the piston, apply a coat ofengine oil to the ring grooves and cylinder bores.
lf the crankshaft is already installed:
. Remove the connecting rod caps and slip short
sections of rubber hose ove. the threaded ends
of the connecting rod bolts.
a Install the ring compressor, check that the bear'
ing is securely in place, then position the piston
in the cylinder and tap it in using the wooden
handle of a hammer.
Stop after the ring compressor pops free and
check the connecting rod-to-crank journal align-
ment before tapping piston into place.
. Install the rod caps with bearings, then torque
the nuts,

lf the crankshaft is not installed:
o Remove the rod caps and bearings. install the
ring compressor, then position the piston in the
cylinder and tap it in using the wooden handle of
a nammer.
. Position all Distons at toD dead center.
CONNECTING RODOIL HOI-E (Br8Bl onginelThe arrow must facethe timing belt sideof the engine. Theconnecting rod oil holemust lace the intak€manifold {81881 €ngine).
NOTE: Maintain downward force on the ring com-
pressor to prevent rings from expanding before
entering the cylinder bore,
BING COMPRESSORUse the wooden handleof a hammer to push ortap the piston into thecylinder bore.
Piston Rings
Replacement
1.Using a ring expander, remove old piston rings.
Clean all ring g.ooves thoroughly.
NOTE:
. Use a squared-oJf broken ring or ring groove
cleaner with blade to fit piston grooves.
. Top ring groove is 1.0 mm (0.039 in) wide, sec-
ond groove is 1.2 mm (0.047 in) wide. and oil
ring groove is 2.8 mm (0.110 in) wide.. File down blade if necessary.
CAUTION: Do not use a wire brush to cloan thr
ring lands, or cut ring lands dsopo. with cl€aning
tool.
NOTE: lf the piston is to be separated from the con-
necting rod, do not install new rings yet.
Install new rings in the prope. sequence and posi-
tion (see page 7-18).
NOTE: Do not use old piston rings.

ldle Control System
Fast ldle Thermo Valve
DEscliptlon
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is n€cessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger, When
the engine is cold. the engine coolant su.rounding the
thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing additional air
to be bypassed into the intake manifold so that the en-
gine idlss taster. When the engine reaches operating tem-
peratur€, the valve closss, reducing the amount of air
bypassing into the manifold.
