8. CHECK CONNECTING ROD OIL CLEARANCE
Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance
while moving the connecting rod back and forth.
Standard thrust clearance:
0.15 – 0.30 mm (0.0059 – 0.0118 in.)
Maximum thrust clearance:
0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)
If the thrust clearance is greater than maximum, re–
place the connecting rod assembly
(s). If necessary,
replace the crankshaft.
Connecting rod thickness:
20.80 – 20.85 mm (0.8189 – 0.8209 in.)
9. INSTALL REAR OIL SEAL RETAINER
(a) Remove any old packing (FIPG) material and be care–

oil seal retainer and cylinder block.
Using a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove
all the oil packing (FIPG) material from the gasket
surfaces and sealing grooves.
Thoroughly clean all components to remove all
the loose material.
Using a non–residue solvent, clean both sealing
surfaces.
(b) Apply seal packing to the oil seal retainer as shown in
the illustration.
Seal packing:

(0.08 – 0.12) opening.
Parts must be assembled within 3 minutes of
application. Otherwise the material must be re–
moved and reapplied.
Immediately remove nozzle from the tube and
reinstall cap.
