Pistons, Connecting Rods and Connecting Rod Bearings. (Sheet 2 of 12)
REMOVAL
Before
removing piston
and
connecting rod inspect the upper
edge of the cylinder sleeve for a
ridge.
If a ridge is found it
must be removed with a fine crocus
cloth and a carbon
scraper or
ridge reamer before the piston is
removed. Failure to follow this
procedure could result in damage
to piston
ring
lands
during
removal and installation.
NOTE
Keep parts in order and observe
markings to
prevent possible
mismatching during assembly and
installation. Keep rod caps and
bearings
bolted to
their
original connecting rod.
The following procedure is for
one piston and connecting
rod
assembly. The procedure for the
other five piston and connecting
rod assemblies is identical.
1.
Using a 5/8 socket and socket wrench
handle, remove two bolts (1), cap (2)
and two bearing
halves (3) from
connecting
rod (4) in
lower
crankcase.
