14. Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and connect-
ing rod cap.
● When installing connecting rod bearings, apply engine oil to
the bearing surface (inside). Do not apply engine oil to the
back surface, but thoroughly clean it.
● When installing, align connecting rod bearing stopper protru-
sion with the cutout of connecting rod to install.
● Check the oil hole on connecting rod and that on the corre-
sponding bearing are aligned.
15. Install piston and connecting rod assembly to crankshaft.
● Position crankshaft pin corresponding to connecting rod to be
installed onto the bottom dead center.
● Apply engine oil sufficiently to cylinder bore, piston and crank-
shaft pin.
● Match cylinder position with the cylinder number on connect-
ing rod to install.
● Using a piston ring compressor (SST) or suitable tool, install
piston with the front mark on the piston crown facing the front
of engine.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage cylinder wall and crankshaft pin, resulting from an interference of con-
necting rod big end.
16. Install connecting rod cap.
● Match the stamped cylinder number marks on connecting rod
with those on cap to install.
● Be sure that front mark on connecting rod cap is facing front
of engine.

a. Apply engine oil to the threads and seats of connecting rod
bolts.
