The same operation: can, however, be carried out under a large drilling machine. Important is that the liners are pushed fully down. The maximum protrusion to April 1989 must not exceed 0.14 mm, after this date it must not exceed 0.10 mm. Also measure the difference between two adjacent liners. Proceed in a similar manner as described earlier on, but place the dial gauge stylus onto the shoulders of two adjacent liners. If the difference is more than 0.04 mm, replace the seal/shim of the liner with the higher protrusion.
- After all liners have been measured in the manner described, secure them in position with the clamps.
- Assemble the pistons and connecting rods and fit the pistons into the cylinder liners as described later on.
- Insert the big end bearing shells in accordance with the markings into the con rods (if the original shells are used). The tabs on the shells must enter the locating recesses in the connecting rods. Fit the bearing caps to the connecting rods and tighten the bolts to 4.0 kgm (30 ft.lb.). Refer to “Pistons and Connecting Rods” for details of fitting direction, piston rings, etc.
