1. Install oil pan and cylinder head according to the
corresponding operations.
2. Install sealing Gasket or replace if damaged.
3. Install camshaft housing to cylinder head.
4. Install cylinder head according to the corresponding
operation.



Con-Rod
Removal
1. Remove piston with con-rod according to the
corresponding operation.
2. Disassemble con-rod piston assembly by pressing out
piston pin, using 5-8840-0468-0.


Installation
1. Slide guide drift (5-8840-0468-0) in horizontal position
through piston and con-rod as far as side plate stops.
2. Tighten bolts evenly so that the piston rests flush on the
rear plate.
3. Remove centre piece from guide drift and insert piston
bolts (lubricated) into guide drift.

Low or high spark plug installation torque or improper
seating can result in the spark plug running too hot and
can cause excessive center electrode wear. The plug
and the cylinder head seats must be in good contact for
proper heat transfer and spark plug cooling. Dirty or
damaged threads in the head or on the spark plug can
keep it from seating even though the proper torque is
applied. Once spark plugs are properly seated, tighten
them to the torque shown in the Specifications Table.
Low torque may result in poor contact of the seats due
to a loose spark plug. Over tightening may cause the
spark plug shell to be stretched and will result in poor
contact between the seats. In ex treme cases, ex haust
blow-by and damage beyond simple gap wear may
occur.
Cracked or broken insulators may be the result of
improper installation, damage during spark plug re-
gapping, or heat shock to the insulator material. Upper
insulators can be broken when a poorly fitting tool is
used during installation or removal, when the spark plug
is hit from the outside, or is dropped on a hard surface.
Cracks in the upper insulator may be inside the shell
and not visible. Also, the breakage may not cause
problems until oil or moisture penetrates the crack later.A broken or cracked lower insulator tip (around the
center electrode) may result from damage during re-
gapping or from “heat shock” (spark plug suddenly
operating too hot).
Damage during re-gapping can happen if the gapping
tool is pushed against the center electrode or the
insulator around it, causing the insulator to crack.
When re-gapping a spark plug, make the adjustment
by bending only the ground side terminal, keeping the
tool clear of other parts.
“Heat shock” breakage in the lower insulator tip
generally occurs during several engine operating
conditions (high speeds or heavy loading) and may
be caused by over-advanced timing or low grade
fuels. Heat shock refers to a rapid increase in the tip
temperature that causes the insulator material to
crack.
Spark plugs with less than the recommended amount of
service can sometimes be cleaned and re-gapped, then

IGNITION COIL
Location
Back of the engine right-hand side.
Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the ignition coil connector.
3. Disconnect four spark plug cables from the ignition
coil.
4. Loosen three bolts and remove ignition coil from the
bracket.
Installation Procedure
1. Tighten the ignition coil by three bolts.
2. Connect four spark plug cables to the ignition coil.
3. Connect a ignition coil connector to the ignition coil.
4. Connect the negative battery cable.
NOTE: Verify any DTCs (diagnosis Trouble Code) are
not stored after replacement.
Verify proper connection of spark plug cables for each
cylinders.
SPARK PLUGS
Location
Installed on the left-hand side of cylinder head.
Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable
2. Remove the spark plug cable.
3. Remove the spark plug.
Inspection
1. Check the insulator for cracks. Replace the spark
plug if cracks are present.
2. Check the electrode condition and replace the spark
plug if necessary.
If the spark plug electrodes and insulators are fouled
with carbon or oil, the engine will not operate efficiently.
There are a number of possible causes:
Fuel mix ture is too rich.
