Using SST, temporarily tighten the bolts in several steps in the sequence shown in the illustration, then tighten the bolts with the specified torque.
SST 09011-38121
Torque 22 Nm (224 kgf-cm, 16 ft. lbs.)

INSPECT CONNECTING ROD THRUST CLEARANCE
Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance of the connecting rod while moving the connecting rod back and forth.
Standard thrust clearance 0.16 to 0.36 mm (0.0063 to 0.0142 inch)
Maximum thrust clearance 0.36 mm (0.0142 inch)

Remove the connecting rod cap, then measure the Plastigage at its widest point.
Standard oil clearance 0.016 to 0.040 mm (0.0006 to 0.0016 inch)
Maximum oil clearance 0.06 mm (0.0024 inch)

INSPECT CRANKSHAFT THRUST CLEARANCE
Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance of the crankshaft while moving a screwdriver back and forth.
Standard thrust clearance 0.09 to 0.19 mm (0.0035 to 0.0075 inch)
Maximum thrust clearance 0.30 mm (0.0118 inch)

INSPECT CYLINDER BLOCK FOR FLATNESS
Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the warpage on the top surface of the cylinder block.
Maximum warpage 0.05 mm (0.0020 inch)

Using a dial indicator and V-blocks, measure the circle runout of the crankshaft.
Maximum circle runout 0.03 mm (0.0012 inch)

INSPECT CRANKSHAFT BEARING CAP SET BOLT
Using vernier calipers, measure the diameter at the position as illustrated.
Standard diameter 7.3 to 7.5 mm (0.287 to 0.295 inch)
Minimum diameter 7.3 mm (0.287 inch)

Align the micrometer so it is 37 mm (1.4567 inch) from the top of the piston and at a right angle (90°) to the piston pin holes.
Piston diameter 74.941 to 74.979 mm (2.9504 to 2.9519 inch)

INSPECT PISTON CLEARANCE
Subtract the piston pin hole diameter measurement from the cylinder bore minimum diameter measurement to calculate the piston clearance.
Standard oil clearance 0.045 to 0.068 mm (0.0018 to 0.0027 inch)
Maximum oil clearance 0.08 mm (0.0032 inch)





Standard ring groove clearance





Standard end gap
Connecting Rod bolts:
1st 15 Nm (153 kgf-cm, 11 ft. lbs.)
2nd turn 90°
Crankshaft pulley 128 Nm (1305 kgf-cm, 95 ft. lbs.)
