SERVICE MANUALCONNECTING RODS, PISTONS, RINGS & SLEEVESSection 5f.Take readings at three or four pointsaround the sleeve and use the averagereading to determine which shim, if any, isneeded to bring the protrusion within the0.05mm(0.002in.)0.13 mm (0.005 in.)specification.NOTE: Shims are available in 0.005 mm (0.002 in.),0.10 mm (0.004 in.), 0.25 mm (0.010 in.), 0.51 mm(0.020 in.) and 0.81 mm (0.032 in.) thicknesses In apackage.3.Install the necessary Shims and “O” Ringsas follows:a.Remove the clamping bolts and washers.Clean the TOP deck of the crankcase andthe cylinder sleeve counterbore. Clean thesleeve.b.Install the shim (if necessary) in thecounterbore as shown in Fig. 32.Figure 32. - Shim Placementc.Coat the sealing “O” Rings with clean engineoil and install them into the grooves in thesleeves (without twist). The .rings MUST beinstalled in the following order: BOTTOM,CENTER and TOP.NOTE: Be sure the “O” Ring is properly aligned inthe groove.d.Brush the sealing ring contacting surface inthe crankcase with clean engine oil.e.Install the sleeve carefully into the samebore it was removed from. Press into placeby hand.f.Check sleeve protrusion as previouslydescribed in (2a-f) In this section.Install Pistons and Connecting Rods as follows:4.Coat the piston and piston ring compressor(PLT-500-2, 04-464-2 or SE-1680) for 400series with clean lubricating oil.5.Install the piston end rod assembly into thepiston ring compressor.NOTE: The piston and rod assemblies can beinstalled by turning the crankshaft only three times.Position the No. I and 6 crankpins at TDC. Installthe No. 1 and 6 piston assemblies. Repeat thisprocedure for the Nos. 2 and 5 and Nos. 3 and 4piston and rod assemblies.6.Coat the cylinder sleeve generously with cleanlubricating oil. Install the compressor, with pistonand rod, into the cylinder sleeve. The numbers onthe rod must face away from the camshaft while themarkings on top of the piston faces toward thecamshaft side of the engine as shown in Fig. 33.Push down on the piston carefully until it is in thecylinder sleeve. Avoid striking the sleeve with theconnecting rod.7.Coat the connecting rod journal and connecting rodbearings with clean engine oil.a.Install the upper half of the bearing in theconnecting rod and pull the rod down ontothe journal.b.Install the connecting rod bearing cap withthe numbered side of the cap matching thenumbered side of the rod.c.Install the bolts and tighten to 80 N•m (60Ibf-ft) torque, then tighten to 175 N•m (1 30Ibf-ft) torque.CGES-185-3PRINTED IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICAPage 28
