INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.

Do not allow engine oil to get on mounting insulator. Be careful not to damage mounting insulator.

When installation directions are specified, install parts according to the direction marks on them referring
to figure of components. Refer to EM-208, "
ENGINE ASSEMBLY" .

Make sure that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten mounting bolts and nuts.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Before starting engine, check the levels of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. If less than
required quantity, fill to the specified level.

Before starting engine, bleed air from fuel piping. Refer to FL-18, "Air Bleeding" .

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of engine coolant, lubricants, working
engine oil, fuel and exhaust gas.

Bleed air from passages in pipes and tubes of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check amounts of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. Refill to
specified level, if necessary.

Using feeler gauge, measure the side clearance between piston
ring and piston ring groove.
Unit: mm (in)

Align top ring and external surface of piston. Measure lower side
clearance of top ring with top ring pressed onto upper side of
ring groove.

If side clearance exceeds the limit, replace piston ring.

Check clearance again. If side clearance still exceeds the limit,
replace piston.
PISTON RING END GAP

Make sure that cylinder bore diameter is within the specifica-
tions. Refer to EM-230, "

(Connecting rod bushing clearance) = (Connecting rod bushing inner diameter) − (Piston pin outer diameter)

If it exceeds the limit, replace connecting rod and/or piston and piston pin assembly. Refer to EM-223,
"HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING" and/or EM-222, "HOW TO SELECT PISTON" .
CYLINDER BLOCK TOP SURFACE DISTORTION

Using scraper, remove gasket installed onto cylinder block sur-
face. Remove contamination such as engine oil, scale, and car-
bon.
CAUTION:
Keep broken pieces of gasket clear of engine oil and engine
coolant passages.

Use straightedge and feeler gauge to check block upper surface
for six distortion.

If it exceeds the limit, replace cylinder block.

MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Measurement

Install main bearings to cylinder block and bearing cap, and
tighten the bolts to the specified torque. Refer to EM-217,
"ASSEMBLY" . Then, measure the inner diameter of main bear-
ings.
(Bearing clearance) = (Bearing inner diameter) − (Crankshaft
journal outer diameter)

If out of the standard, check main bearing housing inner diame-
ter and crankshaft journal outer diameter, and select appropriate
main bearing to adjust clearance to specifications. Refer to EM-
224, "HOW TO SELECT MAIN BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage

Remove contamination such as engine oil and dust completely
from crankshaft journals and each bearing surface.

Cut plastigage slightly shorter than bearing width. Place it in
crankshaft turning direction, avoiding oil holes.

Install main bearings and bearing cap and tighten to the speci-
fied torque. Refer to EM-217, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening
procedure.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft.

Remove main bearings and bearing caps, and measure plasti-
gage width using scale on plastigage bag.
NOTE:
If out of specification, take same action mentioned in “Method by Measurement”.
CRUSH HEIGHT OF MAIN BEARING

When bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the speci-
fied torque with main bearings installed, the tip end of bearing
must protrude. Refer to EM-217, "
ASSEMBLY" .

If out of the standard, replace main bearings.
CRUSH HEIGHT OF CONNECTING ROD BEARING

When connecting rod bearing cap is removed after being tight-
ened to the specified torque with connecting rod bearings
installed, the tip end of bearing must protrude. Refer to EM-217,
"ASSEMBLY" .

If out of the standard, replace connecting rod bearings.Standard : 0.039 - 0.066 mm (0.0015 - 0.0026 in)
