PROCEDURE


  1. REMOVE CYLINDER BLOCK WATER JACKET SPACER


    1. A01VBSD

      Remove the 2 cylinder block water jacket spacers from the cylinder block sub-assembly.

  2. REMOVE NO. 1 VENTILATION CASE

    Tech Tips

    There are 2 installation types for the No. 1 ventilation case.

    Depending on the installation type, the number of bolts, nuts and stud bolts used will vary.


    1. Type A:


      1. A01VC1N

        Remove the 6 bolts and 2 nuts.

      2. A01VCW1C01
        *a Protective Tape

        Remove the No. 1 ventilation case by prying between the No. 1 ventilation case and cylinder block sub-assembly with a screwdriver with its tip wrapped with protective tape.

        Note

        Be careful not to damage the contact surfaces of the cylinder block sub-assembly and No. 1 ventilation case.

    2. Type B:


      1. A01VC57

        Remove the 8 bolts.

      2. A01VCA2C01
        *a Protective Tape

        Remove the No. 1 ventilation case by prying between the No. 1 ventilation case and cylinder block sub-assembly with a screwdriver with its tip wrapped with protective tape.

        Note

        Be careful not to damage the contact surfaces of the cylinder block sub-assembly and No. 1 ventilation case.

  3. REMOVE PISTON SUB-ASSEMBLY WITH CONNECTING ROD


    1. A01VDDAC01
      *a Paint Mark

      Place a paint mark across each corresponding connecting rod and connecting rod bearing cap.

      Tech Tips

      The paint marks are used to ensure that the same parts are installed in the same combination to their original locations.

    2. A01VCFFN01

      Using SST, remove the 8 connecting rod bolts from the connecting rod bearing caps.

      SST
      09205-16011
    3. A01VCE2

      Using the 2 removed connecting rod bolts, remove the 4 connecting rod caps with connecting rod bearings by wiggling each connecting rod cap left and right.

      Tech Tips

      Keep the connecting rod bearing installed to the connecting rod cap.

    4. A01VCRV

      Using a ridge reamer, scrape off any carbon on the top of the cylinder.

    5. Push out the 4 pistons with 4 connecting rods and 4 connecting rod bearings through the top of the cylinder block sub-assembly.

      Tech Tips


      • Keep the connecting rod bearings, connecting rods and connecting rod caps together.

      • Arrange the removed parts in such a way that they can be reinstalled to their original locations.

  4. REMOVE CONNECTING ROD BEARING


    1. Remove the 8 connecting rod bearings from the 4 connecting rods and 4 connecting rod caps.

      Tech Tips

      Arrange the removed parts in such a way that they can be reinstalled to their original locations.

  5. REMOVE CRANKSHAFT


    1. A01VDCHN01

      Uniformly loosen and remove the 10 crankshaft bearing cap set bolts in several steps in the order shown in the illustration.

    2. A01VBPH

      Using the 2 removed crankshaft bearing cap set bolts, remove the 5 crankshaft bearing caps from the cylinder block sub-assembly by wiggling each crankshaft bearing cap back and forth.

      Tech Tips

      Arrange the removed parts in such a way that they can be reinstalled to their original locations.

    3. Remove the crankshaft from the cylinder block sub-assembly.

  6. REMOVE CRANKSHAFT BEARING

    2. Remove the oil ring expander, upper side rail and lower side rail from the piston by hand.

      Tech Tips

      Arrange the removed parts in such a way that they can be reinstalled to their original locations.

  9. REMOVE PISTON


    1. A01VC63

      Using a screwdriver, pry out the piston pin hole snap ring from the piston.

      Note


      • Do not remove the piston pin hole snap ring (rear side) unless it is being replaced.
