rod back and forth.
|
End play :
Standard : 0.10- 0.25 mm (0.0039 - 0.0098 in.)
Limit : 0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)
|
| •
|
If out-of-tolerance, install a new connecting rod.
|
| •
|
If still out-of-tolerance, replace the crankshaft.
|
|
|
2. |
Check the connecting road bearing oil clearance.
|
(1) |

to ensure correct reassembly.
|
|
(2) |
Remove 2 connecting rod cap bolts.
|
|
(3) |
Remove the connecting rod cap and bearing half.
|
|
(4) |
Clean the crank pin and bearing.
|
|
(5) |
Place plastigage across the crank pin.

|
Tightening torque
17.7 - 21.6 N.m (1.8 - 2.2 kgf.m, 13.0 - 15.9 lb-ft)
+ 88 - 92°
|
|
• |
Do not turn the crankshaft.
|
|
|
|
(7) |
Remove 2 bolts, connecting rod cap and bearing half.
|
|
(8) |
Measure the plastigage at its widest point.
|
Standard oil clearance :

|
|
|
(9) |
If the plastigage measures too wide or too narrow, remove the
upper half of the bearing, install a new, complete bearing with
the same color mark (select the color as shown in the next column),
and recheck the clearance.
|
• |
Do not file, shim, or scrape the bearings or
the caps to adjust clearance.
|
|
|
|
(10) |
If the plastigage shows the clearance is still incorrect, try
the next larger or smaller bearing (the color listed above or
below that one), and check clearance again.
|
• |
If the proper clearance cannot be obtained by
using the appropriate larger or smaller bearings,
replace the crankshaft and start over.
|
|
|
• |
If the marks are indecipherable because of an
accumulation of dirt and dust, do not scrub
them with a wire brush or scraper. Clean them
only with solvent or detergent.

Inspect the connecting rods.
|
(1) |
When reinstalling, make sure that cylinder numbers put on the
connecting rod and cap at disassembly match. When a new connecting
rod is installed, make sure that the notches for holding the
bearing in place are on the same side.
|
|
(2) |
Replace the connecting rod if it is damaged on the thrust faces
at either end. Also if step wear or a severely rough surface
of the inside diameter of the small end is apparent, the rod
must be replaced as well.
|
|
(3) |
Using a connecting rod aligning tool, check the rod for
|
Allowable bend of connecting rod :
0.05mm (0.0020 in.) or less for 100mm (3.94 in.)
Allowable twist of connecting rod :
0.10mm (0.0039 in.) or less for 100mm (3.94 in.)
|
|
|
Piston
|
1. |
Clean piston
|
(1) |
Using a gasket scraper, remove the carbon from the piston top.
|
|
(2) |
Using a groove cleaning tool or broken ring, clean the piston
ring grooves.
|
|
(3) |
Using solvent and a brush, thoroughly clean the piston.
|
|
|
2. |
Check the piston-to-cylinder clearance by calculating the difference
between the cylinder bore inner diameter and the piston outer diameter.
|
Piston-to-cylinder clearance :
0.04 - 0.06 mm (0.0016 - 0.0024 in.)
|
|
(1) |
Using a cylinder bore gauge, measure the cylinder bore diameter
at position in the thrust and axial direction.
|

from top land of the piston.
|
Piston outside diameter :
88.45 - 88.48 mm (3.4823 - 3.4835 in.)
|
|
|
|
3. |

|
Piston-to-cylinder clearance :
0.04 - 0.06 mm (0.0016 - 0.0024 in.)
|
|
(1) |
Check the cylinder bore size mark on the side of the cylinder
block.
Letters have been stamped on the block as a mark for the size
of each of the 5 main journal bores.
Use them, and the numbers or bar stamped on the crank (marks
for main journal size), to choose the correct bearings.

|
|
|
2. |
Inspect the piston ring end gap.
To measure the piston ring end gap, insert a piston ring into the cylinder
bore. Position the ring at right angles to the cylinder wall by gently
pressing it down with a piston. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge.
If the gap exceeds the specifications, replace the piston rings. If
the gap is too large, recheck the cylinder bore inner diameter.
|

Before inserting the piston pin, apply sufficient
engine oil on the piston’s outer surface, piston
hole’s inner surface and connecting rod’s small-end
bore.
|
|
• |
When inserting, use caution not to damage or
scratch the connecting rods’ small-end hole,
piston’s pin hole and piston pin.
|

Install the snap ring surely so that the snap
ring contacts the overall groove of the piston’s
pin hole.
|
|
• |
Assemble so that the cut surface of the snap
ring is located within the upper 45° range.

to prevent the rings from expanding before entering
the cylinder bore.
|
|
|
|
