| *1 | Oil Hole |
Align the oil holes of a new bush and the connecting rod.
Using SST and a press, press in the bush.
Using a pin hole grinder, hone the bush to obtain the standard specified clearance (See step Click here) between the bush and piston pin.
| *a | Piston Pin |
Check the piston pin fit at normal room temperature. Coat the piston pin with engine oil, and push it into the connecting rod with your thumb.
INSTALL W/PIN PISTON SUB-ASSEMBLY
Assemble the piston and connecting rod.
Using a small screwdriver, install a new snap ring on one side of the piston pin hole.
Gradually heat the piston to about 60°C (140°F).
| *a | Front Mark (Arrow) |
| *b | Front Mark (Protrusion) |
Coat the piston pin with engine oil.
Align the front marks of the piston and connecting rod, and push in the piston pin with your thumb.
Check fit between the piston and piston pin.
Try to move the piston back and forth on the piston pin.
Using a small screwdriver, install a new snap ring on the other side of the piston pin hole.

Note
Do not align the ring ends.
INSTALL CONNECTING ROD BEARING
Align the bearing claw with the groove of the connecting rod or connecting cap.
Install the bearings in the connecting rod and connecting rod cap.
INSTALL CRANKSHAFT BEARING
Tech Tips
Upper bearings have an oil groove and oil hole; lower bearings do not.
Align the bearing claw with the claw groove of the cylinder block, and push in the 5 upper bearings.
