Check that the piston/connecting rod assembly is
perfectly square.
If not, replace parts causing the problem.
NOTES:
— Oil the pistons, rings and liners before inserting
the pistons in their bores.
— Before fitting the ring clamp 380000220 (1) to
compress the rings for insertion in the liner,
check that the ring end gaps are offset by an
angle of 180° i.e., opposite one another.
This will ensure better compression and better oil
sealing.
Big end cap bolts (5, fig. 3 and 5)
If the bolts are to be re−used, check that diameter d
(measured as shown in the figure alongside, area a
157) is greater than 10.5 mm (0.4134 in.). If not,
replace the bolts.
