-Q Before installing the crankshaft, apply a coat of
E engine oilto the main bearings and rod bearings.
1. lnstall the thrust washers in the No. 4 iournal of the
cylinder block.

Insert bearing halves in the engine block and con-
necflng roos.
Hold the crankshaft so rod journals for cylinders No.

Lower the crankshaft into the block, putting the rod
iournals into connecting rods No.2 and No.3.

1.
Rotate the crankshaft clockwise, put journals into
connecting rods No. 1 and No.4, and install the rod
caps and nuts tinger-tight.
NOTEI lnstall caps so the bearing recess is on the
same side as the recess in the rod.
Check rod bearing clearance with plastigage (see
page 7-9), then tighten the capnuts in 2 steps.

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.
RIGHT SIDE COVER:
Apply liquid gasket alongthe broken line.

Inspection
Park the vehicle on level ground, and turn ofl the
engine. Allow the oil a few minutes to drain back
into the oil pan so the dipstick will show the actual
tevet,
Make certain that the oil level indicated on the dip-
stick is between the upper and lower marks.
lf the level has dropped close to the lower mark,
add oil until it reaches the upper mark.
CAUTION: Insert the dipstick caretully to avoid
bending it.

A/C Service Tips and Precautions
The air conditioner system uses HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant and polyalkyleneglycol {PAG) refrigerant oil (ND-OlL 8: P/N
38897-PR7-A01AH or 38899 - PR7 - A01), which are not compatible with CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and mineral oil. Do not
use R-12 refrigerant or mineral oil in this system. and do not attempt to use R-12 servicing equipment; damage to the air
conditioner system or your servicing equipment will result.
Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to remove R-l34a
from the air conditioner system.
CAUTION: Exposure to air conditioner refrigerant and lubricant vapor ot mist can irritate eyos, nose.nd throat, Avoid
breathing th€ air conditionsr rofrigerant 8nd lubricant vapo. or mist.
lf accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioner systems should not be pressure tested or leak tested with comp.essed
atf,
@ some mixtures ol air and R-13i[a have been shown to be combustible at olevat6d pre3sures and cln resuh
in fire or explosion causing iniury or property damage. Nover uso compressed air to prossure te3t R-13,[8 service equip-
ment or vehicle air condition6r systems.
Additional health and safety information may be obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers,
1. Always disconnect the negative cable from the battery whenever replacing air conditioning parts.
2. Keep moisture and dust out of the system. When disconnecting any lines. plug or cap the Jittings immediately; don't
remove the caps or plugs until just before you reconnect each line.
3. Before connecting any hose or line, apply a few drops of refrigerant oilto the O-ring,
4. When tightening or loosening a fitting, use a second wrench to support the matching fitting.
5. When recovering the system. use a R-134a refrigerant Recovery/Recycling/Charging System; don't release refrigerant
into the atmosphere.
6. Add refrigerant oil after replacing the following parts.
NOTE:
. To avoid contamination, do not return the oil tothe container once dispensed, and never mix itwith other refriger-
ant oils.
.lmmediatelyafterusingtheoil,replacethecaponthecontainerandseal it to avoid moisture absorption.
. Do notspillthe refrigerant oil onthevehicle; it maydamagethe painu itthe refrigerant oil contacts the paint, wash
it off immediately.
