| Item | Qty | Part | Specification Description |
| Angle (A) above the centerline on either side of the bearing joint for the sleeve bearing for the piston pin is 10 degrees.
The connecting rod may be heated from |
|||
| C | 1 | 118-1655 Bushing | Thoroughly lubricate the piston pin with clean engine oil prior to assembly of the piston and the connecting rod.
Bore in the bushing for the piston pin after installation of the bushing is Bore in the connecting rod for the bushing is |
| D | - | - | Distance between the center of the bearings is |
| 1 | - | - | Etch the cylinder number on the connecting rod and the cap in this location. Mark the connecting rod and the cap with numbers. Mark the numbers on the same side of the connecting rod as the bearing retainer notch.
Install the connecting rod in the engine with the part number to the rear of the engine. |
| E | 1 | 7N-2043 Dowel | Protrusion of the dowel from the connecting rod cap is |
| F | - | - | Bore in the connecting rod for the bearing for the crankshaft connecting rod journal after applying final torque to the connecting rod bolts is |
| G | - | - | Bore in the connecting rod bearing for crankshaft is |
| 2 | 4 | 7N-2405 Bolt | Use the following procedure for tightening the connecting rod bolts:
Bolt 1 and bolt 2 must be on the same end of the connecting rod cap that has bearing tabs and location pin (4). 1. Before assembly, apply Molylube on the bolt threads, the bolt shank, and the bolt seat. 2. Sequentially tighten the bolt 1 and bolt 2 to 3. Sequentially tighten the bolt 3 and bolt 4 to 4. Again, sequentially tighten the bolt 3 and bolt 4 to 5. Tighten all bolts for an extra 90 ± 5 degrees. |
| 4 | - | - | The chamfer side must be next to the crank pin thrust surface when the connecting rod and piston group is assembled in the engine. |
| Side clearance between two connecting rods on the same new crankshaft pin is |
