Piston Pin Assembly Note

Piston Pin Assembly Note





1. Assemble the piston pin so that connecting rod's projection for discrimination faces opposite side of the arrow mark on the piston (rear side of the engine).
2. Apply clean engine oil to the piston pin.
3. Install the piston pin until the pin contacts the clip.
^ If the pin cannot be installed easily, heat the piston.
