- Disassembly of the piston, press-fit design piston pin, and connecting rod may create scoring or damage to the piston pin and piston pin bore. If the piston, pin, and connecting rod have been disassembled, replace the components as an assembly.
- The disassembly procedure, as shown, is to be used for diagnostic purposes only.




1. Remove the connecting rod bearings (3) from the rod (2) and cap (4).




2. Using piston ring pliers, remove the piston rings from the piston.
