Main bearing with an oil hole and groove goes on cylinder
block. The one without them goes on lower cylinder block.

Only main bearing (on cylinder block) for No. 3 journal has dif-
ferent specifications.

Before installing main bearings, apply new engine oil to the
bearing surface (inside). Do not apply engine oil to the back
surface, but thoroughly clean it.

When installing, align main bearing stopper to the notch.

Ensure the oil holes on cylinder block and those on the corre-
sponding bearing are aligned.
4. Install signal plate to crankshaft if removed.
a. Position crankshaft and signal plate using dowel pin, and tighten
mounting bolts.
NOTE:

Dowel pin of crankshaft and signal plate is provided as a set
for each. If dowel pin is not available (when reusing crank-
shaft and signal plate), use M6 bolt [length 10 mm (0.39 in) or
more] as a substitute.

LOWER CYLINDER
BLOCK MOUNTING BOLT OUTER DIAMETER" .
7. Install lower cylinder block with the following procedure:
a. Apply liquid gasket with tube presser [SST: WS39930000] to
lower cylinder block as shown in the figure.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
CAUTION:
After liquid gasket is applied, rear oil seal installation must
be finished within 5 minutes. Therefore, the following pro-
cedure must be performed quickly.
NOTE:
Lower cylinder block cannot be replaced as a single part,
because it is machined together with cylinder block.

b. Assemble piston to connecting rod.

Using industrial drier or similar tool, heat the piston until the piston pin can be pushed in by hand with-
out excess force [approximately 60 to 70 °C (140 to 158 °F)]. From the front to the rear, insert piston pin
into piston and connecting rod. : 25.1 N·m (2.6 kg-m, 19 ft-lb)

apply new engine oil to the back surface, but thoroughly clean it.

When installing, align the connecting rod bearing stopper pro-
trusion with the cutout of connecting rod and connecting rod
cap to install.

Ensure the oil hole on connecting rod and that on the corre-
sponding bearing are aligned.
12. Install piston and connecting rod assembly to crankshaft.

How to Select Piston and Bearing BBS0059H
DESCRIPTION
*For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between piston pin and connecting rod. (Only grade “0” is available.) The
information at the shipment from the plant is described as a reference.

The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.

For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimension accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.

For details of the measurement method of each part, the reuse standards and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, refer to the text.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON
When New Cylinder Block is Used

Check the cylinder bore grade on rear left side of cylinder block,
and select piston of the same grade.

If there is a corrected stamp mark on the cylinder block, use it as
a correct reference.
When Cylinder Block is Reused
1. Measure the cylinder bore inner diameter. Refer to EM-103, "Cylinder Bore Inner Diameter" .
2. Determine the bore grade by comparing the measurement with the values under the cylinder bore inner
diameter of the “Piston Selection Table”.
3. Select piston of the same grade.
Piston Selection Table
Unit: mm (in)
NOTE:

There is no piston grade “1”.

Piston is available together with piston pin as an assembly.

The piston pin (piston pin hole) grade is provided only for the parts installed at the plant. For service parts,
no grades can be selected. (Only grade “0” is available.)
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING
When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used
1. Apply connecting rod big end diameter grade stamped on con-
necting rod side face to the row in the “Connecting Rod Bearing
Selection Table”.
