1. Remove the connecting rod caps, then install the
ring compressor, and check that the bearing is
securely in place.
2. Position the arrow and the mark facing the timing
belt side ot the engine.
The mark must facethe timing belt sideof the engine.
Tb6 arrow must tac6th€ timing belt sideof the engine.
Position the piston in the cylinder, and tap it in
using the wooden handle of a hammer.
NOTE: Maintain downward force on the ring com-pressor to prevent rings from expanding before
entering the cylinder bore.
Position all pistons at top dead center.

Piston Rings
Replacement
Using a ring expander, remove old piston rlngs.
Clean all ring grooves thoroughly.
o Use a squared-ofl broken ring or ring groove
cleaner with blade to fit piston grooves.
. lop 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 clean the
ring lands, or cut ring lands deeper with cleaning
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 proper sequence and posa-
tion (see page 7 21).
Do not use old piston rings.
PISTON RING
End Gap
Using a piston, push a new ring into the cvlinder
bore 15 - 20 mm 10.6 0.8 in) f rom the bottom.
2. N,4easure the piston ring end gap with a feeler
gauge:
lf the gap is too small, check to see if you have
the proper rings for your engine.
. lf the gap is too large, recheck the cylinder bore
diameter against the wear limits on page 7-13.
lf the bore is over the service limit, the cylinder
block must be rebored.

CAUTION: Whenever any crankshaft o. connecting rod
bearing is replaced, it is necessary after reassembly to
run the engine at idling speed until it reaches normal
opelating temperature, then continue to run it tor
approximalely 15 minutes.
Apply non-hardening liquid gasket to the block mat-
ing surface of the right side cover, and install it on
the cylinder block.
NOTEI
. Use liquid gasket, Part No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718- 0003,
. Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry
before applying liquid gasket.
. Apply liquid gasket as an even bead, centered
between the edges of the mating surface.
. To prevent leakage of oil, apply liquid gasket to
the inner threads of the bolt holes.
. Do not install the parts if 5 minutes or more have
elapsed since applying the liquid gasket. Instead,
reapply liquid gasket after removing the old
residue.
After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes betore
filling the engine with oil.

Eight numbers (1 to 8) are printed on the surlace ol
the filter.
The lollowing explains the procedure for tightening
filters using these numbers.
1) Make a mark on the engine oil cooler (818c5
engine) or cylinder block (8188'1, 818C1 engines)
under the number that shows at the bottom of
the filter when the rubber seal is seated.
2) Tighten the filter by turning it clockwise seven
numbers Irom the marked point. For example, if a
mark is made under the number 2 when the rub
ber seal is seated, the filter should be tightened
until the number 1 comes up to the marked point

5. After installation, fill the engine with oil up to the
specilied level, run the engine for more than 3 min-
utes, then check for oil leakage and oil level.
CAUTION: Installation using other than the above
procedure could result in serious engine damage
duo to oil leakage.

Oil Pressure
Testing
lf the oil pressure warning light stays on with the enginerunning, check the engine oil level. It the oil level iscorrect:
Connect a tachometer.
Remove the oil pressure switch and install an oil pressure gauge.
Start the engine. Shut it off immediately if the gaugeregasters no oil pressure. Repair the problem beforecontinuing.
Allow the engine to reach operating temperature (fan
comes on at least twicel. The pressure should be:
Engine Oil Pressure:
At ldle: 70 kPa {O.7 kgficmr, tO psil
minimum
At 3,OOO rpm: 34O kPa (3.5 kgf/cmr, 50 psil

a lf oilpressure is within specifications, replace theengine oil pressure switch and recheck.
a lf oil pressure is NOT within specifications,rnspect the oil pump (see page g-11).

1. Remove the oil jet (see pages 8 4 or 8 5) and inspectit as follows.
a Make sure rhat a 1 .1 mm (O.04 in) diameter drillwillgo through the nozzle hole fl.2 mm (O.O5 in)diameter).
a Insert the other end of the same 1 .1 mm {0.O4in) drill into the oit intake (1.2 mm (0.05 in)diameter).
Make sure the check ball moves smoothly and hasa stroke of approximately 4.0 mm (O.16 in).a Check the oil jet operation with an air nozzle. ltshould take at least 2OO kPa 12.O kg|lcm2, 2gpsi) to unseat the check ball.
NOTE: Replace the oiljet assembly if the nozzleis damaged or bent.
