5. Install the crankshaft to the cylinder block.
●While turning the crankshaft by hand, check that it turns smoothly.
6. Install the lower cylinder block.
● Apply liquid gasket or equivalent to positions shown in the fig-
ure.
Use Genuine Liquid gasket or equivalent.
NOTE:
Cylinder block and lower cylinder block are machined
together. Neither of them can be replaced as a single unit.
CAUTION:
After liquid gasket is applied, rear oil seal installation
must be finished within 5 minutes. Therefore, the follow-
ing procedure must be performed quickly.
7. Tighten lower cylinder block mounting bolts in the numerical
order in the figure by following the procedure below.
a. Apply new engine oil to threads and seat surfaces of mounting
bolts.
b. Tighten M10 (0.39 in) bolts in order from No. 1 to 10 with tighten-
ing torque 36.3 to 42.2 N·m (3.7 to 4.3 kg-m, 27 to 31 ft-lb).
NOTE:
There are two more processes to complete the tightening of
mounting bolts (See step 9). However stop procedure here to
install rear oil seal.
8. Install rear oil seal.
CAUTION:
Complete this step within approximately 5 minutes after liq-
uid gasket is applied to the lower cylinder block.
●Press oil seal between cylinder block and crankshaft with a
suitable drift.
●Be careful not to touch the grease on the oil seal lip.
●Be careful not to cause scratches or burrs when pressing in
the oil seal.
●Press in rear oil seal to the position shown in the figure.

9. Restart tightening of lower cylinder block bolts with the following
procedure.
NOTE:
Step “a ”and “b” have been completed before installation of rear
oil seal (step 7).
a. Step “a” has been completed before installation of rear oil seal.
b. Step “b” has been completed before installation of rear oil seal.
c. Tighten M10 (0.39 in) bolts to 60 to 65° (target: 60°) in order
from No. 1 to 10.

15 to 18 ft-lb) in order from No. 11 to 22.
CAUTION:
In step “c”, use an angle wrench (special service tool) or
protractor to check tightening angle. Do not make judgment
by visual inspection.
●After installing mounting bolts, make sure that crankshaft can
be rotated smoothly by hand.
●Wipe off completely any protruding liquid gasket on front side
of engine.
●Check crankshaft side clearance. Refer to EM-88, "CRANK-
SHAFT END PLAY" .
10. Install the piston to the connecting rod.
a. Using a snap ring pliers, install the snap ring to the grooves of
the piston rear side.
●Insert it fully into groove to install.
b. Install the piston to the connecting rod.
●Using an industrial drier or similar tool, heat the piston until the piston pin can be pushed in by hand
without excess force [approx. 60 to 70 °C (140 to 158 °F)]. From the front to the rear, insert the piston
pin into the piston and the connecting rod.
●Assemble so that the front mark on the piston crown and the
oil holes and the cylinder No. on the connecting rod are posi-
tioned as shown in the figure.
c. Install the snap rings to the front of the piston.
● After installing, check that the connecting rod moves
smoothly.
11. Using a piston ring expander, install the piston rings.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the piston.
●Position each ring with the gap as shown in the figure refer-
ring to the piston front mark.

12. Install the connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and the
connecting rod cap.
●When installing the connecting rod bearings, apply engine oil
to the bearing surface (inside). Do not apply engine oil to the
back surface, but thoroughly clean it.
●When installing, align the connecting rod bearing stopper pro-
trusion with the notch of the connecting rod to install.
●Check the oil holes on the connecting rod and those on the
corresponding bearing are aligned.
13. Install the piston and connecting rod assembly to the crankshaft.
●Position the crankshaft pin corresponding to the connecting
rod to be installed onto the bottom dead center.
●Apply engine oil sufficiently to the cylinder bore, piston and
crankshaft pin.
●Match the cylinder position with the cylinder No. on the con-
necting rod to install.
●Using a piston ring compressor, install the piston with the front
mark on the piston crown facing the front of the engine.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the cylinder wall and crankshaft
pin, resulting from an interference of the connecting rod big end.
14. Install the connecting rod cap.
●Match the stamped cylinder number marks on the connecting
rod with those on the cap to install.
15. Tighten the connecting rod bolt as follows.
a. Apply engine oil to the threads and seats of the connecting rod
bolts.
b. Tighten bolts to 18.6 to 20.6 N·m (1.9 to 2.1 kg-m, 14 to 15 ft-lb).
c. Put mating (with paint) on each bolt and connecting rod cap, all
in the same direction (when using a protractor).
d. Then tighten all bolts 90 to 95 degrees clockwise (target: 90
degrees) (Angle tightening).
CAUTION:

How to Select Piston and Bearing EBS00KNV
DESCRIPTION
*For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between a piston pin and a connecting rod.
(Only 0 grade 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 a 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 block 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”. Select the piston of the same grade.
Piston Selection Table
Unit: mm (in)
NOTE:
●The piston is available together with piston pin as an assembly.
●The piston pin (piston pin bore) grade is provided only for the parts installed at the plant. For service parts,
no grades can be selected. (Only 0 grade is available.)
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING
When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used:
1. Apply big end inside diameter grade stamped on connecting rod
side face to the row in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection
Table”.

2. Apply pin diameter grade stamped on crankshaft front side to
the column in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table”.
3. Read the symbol at the cross point of selected row and column
in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table”.
4. Apply the symbol obtained to connecting rod bearing grade table
to select.
When Crankshaft and Connecting Rod are Reused:
1. Measure dimensions of the big end inner diameter of connecting rod and outer diameter of crankshaft pin
individually.
2. Apply the measured dimension to the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table”.
3. The following steps are same as in Step 3 or later in “When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are
Used”.

Undersize Bearings Usage Guide
●When the specified oil clearance is not obtained with standard size connecting rod bearings, use under-
size (US) bearings.
●When using undersize bearing, measure the bearing inner diameter with bearing installed, and grind the
crankshaft pin so that the oil clearance satisfies the standard.
Bearing undersize table
Unit: mm (in)
CAUTION:
In grinding the crankshaft pin to use undersize bearings, keep
the fillet R (All crankshaft pins).
HOW TO SELECT MAIN BEARING
When New Cylinder Block and Crankshaft are Used:
1. “Main Bearing Selection Table” rows correspond to bearing
housing grade on rear left side of cylinder block.
●If there is a corrected stamp mark on the cylinder block, use it
as a correct reference.
2. Apply journal diameter grade stamped on crankshaft front side
to column in “Main Bearing Selection Table”.
3. Find sign at crossing of row and column in “Main Bearing Selection Table”.
CAUTION:
There are two main bearing selection tables. One is for odd-numbered journals (No. 1, 3 and 5) and
the other is for even-numbered journals (No. 2 and 4). Make certain to use the appropriate table.
This is due to differences in the specified clearances.
4. Apply the symbol obtained to “Main Bearing Grade Table” to select.
NOTE:
Service part is available as a set of both upper and lower.
