Install newsnap ringonone side ofpiston pinhole.
• When assembling pistonandconnecting rodwith piston pin,
heat piston tobetween 60and 80°C (140and176°F) and
install piston pinwith asuitable tool.
• Install newsnap ring.
• After assembling, ascertainthatpiston swings smoothly.

1. Set main bearings inthe proper position oncylinder block
and main bearing caps.
• Ifeither crankshaft, cylinderblockormain bearing isreused
again, itis necessary tomeasure mainbearing clearance.
• Upper bearings (cylinderblockside)haveoilgroove.
• Apply newengine oiltobearing surfaces.
