INSTALLATION
1) Apply engine oil to pistons, rings, cylinder walls, connecting
rod bearings and crankpins.
NOTE:
Do not apply oil between connecting rod and bearing or
between bearing cap and bearing.
2) Install guide hoses (1) over connecting rod bolts.
These guide hoses protect crank pin and threads of rod bolt
from damage during installation of connecting rod and piston
assembly.
3) When installing piston and connecting rod assembly into cyl-
inder bore, point front mark on piston head to crankshaft pul-
ley side.
A : Crankshaft pulley side
B : Flywheel side
4) Install piston and connecting rod assembly into cylinder
bore. Use special tool (Piston ring compressor) to compress
rings. Guide connecting rod into place on crankshaft.
Using a hammer handle, tap piston head to install piston into
bore. Hold ring compressor firmly against cylinder block until
all piston rings have entered cylinder bore.

5) Install bearing cap (1):
Point arrow mark (2) on cap to crankshaft pulley side.
After applying oil to rod bolts and tighten cap nuts (3) gradu-
ally as follows.
a) Tighten all cap nuts to 15 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft).
b) Retighten them to 45°.
c) Repeat Step b) once again.
