Engine Serial No. Prefixes 10P to 14P in engine
sets only. Oil control and 2nd compression rings
are interchangeable between all engines.
9.Check fit of each gudgeon pin in its piston. Pin
must be a tight, sliding fit with no perceptible
side play.

centre of pin. Renew gudgeon pin and piston as
an assembly if diameters are less than specified
or if excessive pin to piston side play is evident.
Gudgeon pin diameter =29.995 to 30.000 mm
(1.180 to 1.181 in)
11.Check connecting rod small-end bushes for
wear, check that gudgeon pin is a sliding fit in

mm (0.012 to 0.016 in)
2nd compression ring fitted gap =0.40 to 0.60
mm (0.016 to 0.024 in)
Oil control ring fitted gap =0.25 to 0.50 mm
(0.01 to 0.02 in)

identified with the cylinder bore in which
they were checked and are fitted to the
piston for that bore.
2.Fit oil control expander and ring to piston.

upwards.
4.Fit 1st compression ring with’TOP’marking
upwards.
5.Check piston ring to groove clearance:
1st compression ring -Not measured
2nd compression ring =0.050 to 0.082 mm
(0.02 to 0.003 in)
Oil control ring =0.050 to 0.082 mm (0.02 to
0.003 in)
Pistons and connecting rods - Assembling
1.Lubricate gudgeon pin, gudgeon pin holes in
piston and small-end bush with engine oil.
2.Position piston to its respective connecting rod
with arrow on piston crown on the same side as
the cast boss on the connecting rod.
3.Fit gudgeon pin to its respective piston and
connecting rod; secure with new circlips.
CAUTION: Ensure circlips are fully seated
in their grooves.
4.Repeat above procedures for remaining pistons.
5.Lubricate piston rings and cylinder bores with

thrust - LH side of piston - viewed from front of
piston.
7.Using a suitable piston ring clamp, compress
piston rings.
8.Insert connecting rod and piston into its
respective cylinder bore, ensuring that the arrow
on piston crown and the cast boss on connecting
rod are facing towards the front of the cylinder
block.
CAUTION: Ensure that connecting rod
does not contact cylinder bore or oil squirt
jet. Do not pull connecting rod fully down
cylinder bore at this stage.
