main bearing top halves, halves, both the Note: When removing the main center and two end crankshaft main journals have no oil hole. To remove these upper main bearing halves, put a thin piece of soft material (that will not damage the crankshaft journal) against the end of the bearing half, opposite the tab. Tap the bearing with the soft material until the tab of the bearing half is free from the groove in the cylinder cylinder block. When removing the remaining four bearing halves using the 2P-5518 Bearing Removal & Installation tool, if the crankshaft is turned in the wrong direction, the tab of the bearing will be pushed between the crankshaft and the cylinder block. This can cause damage damage to either or both the crankshaft and cylinder block. Q – 22 Q – 23

Q – Measuring Measuring Cylinder Bores Refer to Guideline For Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations, SEBF8211, for information and procedures. Measure all cylinder bores with the 4C-4377 Stress Plate Group and a cylinder head gasket over each cylinder to simulate accurate bore conditions. The crosshatch remaining and bore diameter determines if honing or installing sleeves is required. Refer to SEBF8261, “Guideline “Guideline for Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations for additional additional information. The 4C-4377 Stress Plate Group is ONLY used when measuring the bores and honing. It is NOT used when boring the cylinders. Cylinder bores which show at least 75% of crosshatch pattern and have only light vertical scratches can be restored by flexible honing. Refer to SEBF8167, Guideline Guideline for Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations for additional information. Cylinder bores with less than 75% should be reconditioned with a rigid hone. Bores larger than maximum dimensions require sleeving. Maximum Cylinder Bore Size As Measured With Stress Plate Installed:

After installing of all three piston rings, put the piston rings in position so the end gaps are 120 degrees apart. Q – Note: Note: The connecting rods were marked with the number of the cylinder they were removed from. Reinstall the rod and piston in the same location as removed. Be sure the short pieces of rubber hose are installed on the rod bolt threads to protect the journals from damage. Q – Note: Note: Engines using one piece pistons have the word “FRONT” on the crown. The word “FRONT” must be be facing toward the front of the engine. The two piece piston is not stamped with the word “FRONT”.

Install ring compressor tool group. With number one crankshaft throw at bottom center, carefully install piston and connecting rod assembly into cylinder block. Put connecting rod in alignment with crankshaft journal. Using a rubber mallet, tap piston into cylinder bore until ring compressor comes off piston. Before connecting rod comes in contact with crankshaft, install upper half of rod bearing. Be sure bearing tab engages with groove in connecting rod. Apply clean engine oil on JOURNAL SURFACE ONLY of upper rod bearing. Continue tapping piston piston down, guiding connecting connecting rod onto crankshaft. Position lower half of rod rod bearing bearing in corresponding corresponding numbered rod bearing cap. Be sure bearing tab engages with groove groove in rod bearing cap. Apply clean engine oil on JOURNAL SURFACE ONLY of lower bearing surface. Install rod bearing cap on connecting connecting rod with number on bearing cap on same side and same number as on connecting rod. Apply clean engine engine oil on bolt bolt threads threads and all surfaces surfaces that that make contact between bolts and caps. Tighten each rod cap nut to a torque of 54 ± 5 N·m (40 ± 4 lb ft).
