How to Select Piston and Bearing ABS006IV
DESCRIPTION
*: For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between piston pin and connecting rod. (Only “0” grade is available.) The
information at the shipment from the plant is described as a reference.

The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.

For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimension accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.

For details of the measurement method of each part, the reuse standards, and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, refer to the text.
HOW TO SELECT PISTON
When New Cylinder Block Is Used:
Check the cylinder bore grade (“0”, “1” or “2”) on the rear upper side
between cylinder block banks, and select piston of the same grade.
NOTE:
Piston is available with piston pin as a set for the service part. (Only
“0” grade piston pin is available.)
When Cylinder Block Is Reused:
1. Measure the cylinder bore inner diameter. Refer to EM-260, "Cylinder Bore Inner Diameter" .
2. Determine the bore grade by comparing the measurement with the values the “Cylinder bore inner diame-
ter” of the “Piston Selection Table”. Select piston of the same grade.

Inspection After DisassemblyABS006IW
CRANKSHAFT END PLAY

Measure the clearance between thrust bearings and crankshaft
arm when crankshaft is moved fully forward or backward with
dial indicator.

If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace thrust bearings,
and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crank-
shaft also.
CONNECTING ROD SIDE CLEARANCE

Measure side clearance between connecting rod and crankshaft
arm with feeler gauge.

If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace connecting rod,
and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crank-
shaft also.
PISTON TO PISTON PIN OIL CLEARANCE
Piston Pin Hole Diameter
Measure the inner diameter of piston pin hole with inside microme-
ter.
Piston Pin Outer Diameter
Measure the outer diameter of piston pin with micrometer.
Piston to Piston Pin Oil Clearance
(Piston to piston pin oil clearance) = (Piston pin hole diameter) – (Piston pin outer diameter)

If clearance is out of the standard, replace piston and piston pin assembly.Standard : 0.10 - 0.25 mm (0.0039 - 0.0098 in)

Check exhaust pipes, muffler and mounting for improper attachment,
leaks, cracks, damage or deterioration.

If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
Removal and InstallationABS005Z6
CAUTION:

Be sure to use genuine exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed for heat
resistance, corrosion resistance, and shape.

Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system will be hot
just after engine stops.

Be careful not to cut your hand on the heat insulator edge.

Checking Fuel LinesABS005YX
Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap and fuel tank for improper attach-
ment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterio-
ration.
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.
General PrecautionsABS005YY
WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the following.

Put a “CAUTION: INFLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.

Be sure to work in a well ventilated area and furnish workshop with a CO2 fire extinguisher.

Do not smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open flames and sparks away from the work area.
CAUTION:

Before removing fuel line parts, carry out the following procedures:
–Put drained fuel in an explosion-proof container and put the lid on securely. Keep the container in
safe area.
–Release fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-51, "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VQ35DE)
or EC-700, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VK45DE).
–Disconnect negative battery terminal.

Always replace O-ring and clamps with new ones.

Do not kink or twist tubes when they are being installed.

Do not tighten hose clamps excessively to avoid damaging hoses.

After connecting fuel tube quick connectors, make sure
quick connectors are secure.
Ensure that connector and resin tube do not contact any
adjacent parts.

After installing tubes, make sure there is no fuel leakage at
connections in the following steps.
–Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch
“ON” (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at
connections.
–Start engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at con-
nections.

Use only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replacement.
If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the “MIL” may come
on.

For servicing “Evaporative Emission System” parts, refer to
EC-643, "
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM" (VQ35DE) or
EC-1320, "
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM" (VK45DE).

For servicing“On Board Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR)”
parts, refer to EC-650, "
ON BOARD REFUELING VAPOR
RECOVERY (ORVR)" (VQ35DE) or EC-1327, "ON BOARD
REFUELING VAPOR RECOVERY (ORVR)" (VK45DE).

WARNING:
Be sure to read “General Precautions” when working on the fuel system. Refer to FL-3, "
General Pre-
cautions" .
1. Check fuel level on fuel gauge. If fuel gauge indicates more than
the level as shown in the figure (full or almost full), drain fuel
from fuel tank until gauge indicates level as shown in the figure
or below.
NOTE:
Because fuel will be spilled when removing main and sub fuel
level sensor units for the top of the fuel is above the main and
sub fuel level sensor units installation surface.

As a guide, fuel level becomes the position as shown in the
figure or below when approximately 20 (5-1/4 US gal, 4-3/8
Imp gal) of fuel are drained from fuel tank.

In a case that fuel pump does not operate, perform the follow-
ing procedure.
a. Insert hose of less than 25 mm (0.98 in) in diameter into fuel filler tube through fuel filler opening to draw
fuel from fuel filler tube.
b. Disconnect fuel filler hose from fuel filler tube. Refer to FL-10, "
FUEL TANK" .
c. Insert fuel tube into fuel tank through fuel filler hose to draw fuel from fuel tank.
2. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-51, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VQ35DE)
or EC-700, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VK45DE).
