DPISTON AND CONNECTING ROD ASSEMBLY
INSTALLATION
(1) Liberally coat engine oil on the circumference of the piston,
piston ring, and oil ring.
(2) Arrange the piston ring and oil ring gaps (side rail and
spacer) as shown in the figure.
(3) Rotate the crankshaft so that crank pin is on the center
of cylinder bore.
(4) Use suitable thread protectors on the connecting rod bolts
before inserting piston and connecting rod assembly into
the cylinder block.
Care must be taken not to nick the crank pin.
(5) Using a suitable piston ring compressor tool, install the
piston and connecting rod assembly into the cylinder block.
ECONNECTING ROD BEARINGS INSTALLATION
When the bearing needs replacing, select and install a proper
bearing by the following procedure.
(1) Measure the crankshaft pin diameter and confirm its
classification from the following table. In the case of a
crankshaft supplied as a service part, identification colors
of its pins are painted at the positions shown in the
illustration.

For example, if the crankshaft journal outside diameter
ID color is “yellow” and cylinder block bearing bore ID
mark is “1”, select a bearing whose ID mark is “1”.
If there is no ID color paint on the crankshaft, measure
the journal outside diameter and select a bearing
appropriate for the measured value.
(2) Install the bearings having an oil groove to the cylinder
block.
(3) Install the bearings having no oil groove to the bearing
cap.
CBEARING CAP / BEARING CAP BOLT
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the bearing caps so the arrow points to the timing
belt side.
(2) Before installing the bearing cap bolts, check that the
shank length of each bolt meets the limit. If the limit is
exceeded, replace the bolt.
Limit: Max. 71.1 mm
(3) Apply engine oil to the threaded portion and bearing
surface of the bolt.Crankshaft bearing size
