crankshaft untilpiston is at top, then push connecting
rod and piston assembly upward and out thru top of
cylinder. Be careful not to mar the crank pin by allow-
ing the rod bolts to strike or scrape across it. Place
caps on rods immediately so that they willnot be mis-
matched in reassembly. Be sure that shims (used in
babbitt bearing rods), are in place before cap is put on.
NOTE: These models of engines were originally fur-
nished with babbitt cast connecting rod bearings.
Shell bearing rods are now being used for current pro-
duction engines, and are interchangeable with babbitt
bearing rods for service replacement. Care should be
taken in reassembly to mount bearings properly. The
cap should be assembled to the rod so that the local.
ing lug of both bearing halves are on the same side
as illustrated in Fig. 28. Refer to chart, Fig. 32, for
clearance between bearing and crank pin.
The piston skirt is cam-ground to an elliptical con-
tour. Clearance between the piston and cylinder must
be measured at the center of the thrust face at the
bottom of the piston skirt. Refer to Chart, Fig. 32, for
proper clearance. The thrust faces on the piston skirt
Fig. 29
are 90° from the axis of the piston pin hole, with the
wide section of the piston skirt toward the maximum
thrust side, or opposite the crankshaft rotation, See
Engine Sectional, Fig. 2.
In reossembly; be sure piston and connecting rod as-
semblies are put back into the same bore from which
they were removed. Use a suitable ring compressor
and stagger the piston ring gaps 90
°
apart around the
piston. Oil the pistons, rings, wrist pins, rod bearings
and cylinder walls before assembly.
CAUTION: Identical numbers are stamped on the side
of the rod with its corresponding cap. These numbers
must be on the same side of the connecting rod when
mounted in engine. Be sure that oil hole in connect-
iag rod cap is facing toward the oii spray nozzle, as
illustrated in Fig. 29. Install new nuts on connecting
rod bolts and torque 22 to 28 foot pounds.
PISTON RINGS (Fig’s. 30, 31, 32)
If a ring expander tool is not available, install rings
by placing the open end of ring on piston first, as
shown in Fig. 30. Spread ring only far enough to slip
