Connecting Rod: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The pistons (1) are made of a high strength aluminum alloy with an anodized top ring groove. Piston skirts are coated with a solid lubricant for scuff
resistance. The pistons have an "F" cast into the side next to the pin bore that must face towards the front of the engine. The connecting rods are made of
powdered metal with a "fractured cap" design. The connecting rod attaches to the piston with a full floating pin retained by lock rings. The piston and
connecting rod are serviced as an assembly.
