REASSEMBLY
1. Crankshaft
1) Install the main bearings to the cylinder body
and the main bearing caps.
2) Be sure that they are positioned correctly.
3) Apply new engine oil to the upper and lower
main bearing faces.
4) Carefully mount the crankshaft.
5) Apply engine oil to the thrust washer.
6) Assemble the thrust washer to the No. 3 bearing
journal. The oil grooves must face the
crankshaft.7) Install the bearing caps with the bearing cap
head arrow mark facing the front of the engine.

connecting rod bearings and the crankshaft pins
and each piston ring and piston.
2) Align the front mark (2) of piston and front mark
(3) of connecting rod then assemble them.
3) The N mark of the piston ring is faced toward the

INSPECTION AND REPAIR
PISTON AND PISTON RING
Pistons
Carefully clean away all the carbon adhering to the
piston head and the piston ring grooves.
NOTE: Never use a wire brush to clean the pistons.
Damage will result. Visually check each piston for
cracking, scoring, and other signs of excessive wear. If
any of the above conditions are present, the piston
must be replaced.
Piston Diameter
1. Measure the piston outside diameter with
micrometer at the piston grading position.
Piston Grading Position: 69.75 mm (2.7461 in)
from piston head
Piston Outside Diameter mm(in)
