INSPECTION
CYLINDER BLOCK
1. Visually check for cracks and damage. Especially, inspect important parts by means of red lead check.
2. Check the oil passages for clogging.
3. Inspect crankcase surface that mates with cylinder head for warping by using a straight edge, and correct by grinding if necessary.
Warping limit: 0.025 mm (0.0010 inch)
Grinding limit: 0.1 mm (0.004 inch)
Standard height of cylinder block: 201.0 mm (7.91 inch)

CYLINDER AND PISTON





1. The cylinder bore size is stamped on the cylinder block's front upper surface.

CAUTION: Measurement should be performed at a temperature 20°C (68°F).

NOTE: Standard sized pistons are classified into two grades, "A" and "B". These grades should be used as a guide line in selecting a standard piston.

Standard diameter:
A: 99.505 - 99.515 mm (3.9175 - 3.9179 inch)
B.: 99.495 - 99.505 mm (3.9171 - 3.9175 inch)





2. How to measure the inner diameter of each cylinder Measure the inner diameter of each cylinder in both the thrust and piston pin directions at the heights shown in the figure, using a cylinder bore gauge.

CAUTION: Measurement should be performed at a temperature 20°C (68°F).

Taper:
Standard 0.015 mm (0.0006 inch)
Limit 0.050 mm (0.0020 inch)
Out-of-roundness:
Standard 0.010 mm (0.0004 inch)
Limit 0.050 mm (0.0020 inch)
3. When piston is to be replaced due to general or cylinder wear, determine a suitable sized piston by measuring the piston clearance.





4. How to measure the outer diameter of each piston
Measure the outer diameter of each piston at the height shown in the figure. (Thrust direction)

CAUTION: Measurement should be performed at a temperature of 20°C (68°F).

Piston grade point H: 37.0 mm (1.457 inch)
Piston outer diameter:
Standard
A: 99.485 - 99.495 mm (3.9167 - 3.9171 inch)
B.: 99.475 - 99.485 mm (3.9163 - 3.9167 inch)
0.25 mm (0.0098 inch) oversize
99.725 - 99.745 mm
(3.9262 - 3.9270 inch)
0.50 mm (0.0197 inch) oversize
99.975 - 99.985 mm
(3.9360 - 3.9364 inch)
5. Calculate the clearance between cylinder and piston.

CAUTION: Measurement should be performed at a temperature of 20°C (68°F).

Cylinder to piston clearance at 20°C (68°F):
Standard 0.010 - 0.030 mm (0.0004 - 0.0012 inch)
6. Boring and honing
a If the value of taper, out-of-roundness, or cylinder-to-piston clearance measured exceeds the specified limit or if there is any damage on the cylinder wall, rebore it to use an oversize piston.

CAUTION: When any of the cylinders needs reboring, all other cylinders must be bored at the same time, and use oversize pistons. Do not perform boring on one cylinder only, nor use an oversize piston for one cylinder only.

b If the cylinder inner diameter exceeds the limit after boring and honing, replace the crankcase.

NOTE: Immediately after reboring, the cylinder diameter may differ from its real diameter due to temperature rise. Thus, pay attention to this when measuring the cylinder diameter.

Limit of cylinder enlarging (boring): 0.5 mm (0.020 inch)

PISTON AND PISTON PIN
1. Check pistons and piston pins for damage, cracks, and wear and the piston ring grooves for wear and damage. Replace if defective.
2. Measure the piston-to-cylinder clearance at each cylinder. If any of the clearances is not to specification, replace the piston or bore the cylinder to use an oversize piston.








3. Make sure that piston pin can be inserted into the piston pin hole with a thumb at 20°C (68°F). Replace if defective.
Standard clearance between piston pin and hole in piston:
Standard 0.004 - 0.008 mm (0.0002 - 0.0003 inch)
Limit 0.020 mm (0.0008 inch)





4. Check snap ring installation groove on the piston for burr (A). If necessary, remove burr (A) from the groove so that piston pin can lightly move.
5. Check piston pin snap ring for distortion, cracks and wear.

PISTON RING





1. If piston ring is broken, damaged, or worn, or if its tension is insufficient, or when the piston is replaced, replace piston ring with a new one of the same size as the piston.

CAUTION:
^ Marks are shown on the end of the top and second rings. When installing the rings to the piston, face this mark upward.
^ Oil ring consists of upper rail, expander and lower rail. When installing on piston, be careful of each rail's direction.

2. Clean piston ring grove and piston ring.








3. Squarely place piston ring and oil ring in cylinder, and measure the piston ring gap with a thickness gauge.








4. Measure the clearance between piston ring and piston ring groove with a thickness gauge.

CONNECTING ROD
1. Replace connecting rod, if the large or small end thrust surface is damaged.





2. Check for bend or twist using a connecting rod aligner. Replace connecting rod if the bend or twist exceeds the limit.
Limit of bend or twist per 100 mm (3.94 inch) in length: 0.10 mm (0.0039 inch)





3. Install connecting rod fitted with bearing to crankshaft and measure the side clearance (thrust clearance). Replace connecting rod if the side clearance exceeds the specified limit.

Limit 0.4 mm (0.016 inch)
4. Inspect connecting rod bearing for sear, peeling, seizure, melting, wear, etc.

d After completion of reaming, clean bushing to remove chips.

CRANKSHAFT AND CRANKSHAFT BEARING
1. Clean crankshaft completely and check for cracks by means of red lead check etc., and replace if defective.





2. Measure the crankshaft bend, and correct or replace if it exceeds the limit.
