F. Gently tap on the top edge of the compressor
sleeve to be sure the bottom edge is in full contact
with cylinder deck.
G. Apply steady pressure to piston crown to slide
piston from compressor sleeve into cylinder bore.
NOTE: Do not hammer piston into cylinder bore or
piston rings may be damaged. If piston travel is stopped
before it completely enters the cylinder bore, then retract
the piston, reset the piston ring compressor sleeve, and
try again.
14. With connecting rod positioned on crank pin journal,
install connecting rod cap, so that oil dipper points in
the same direction as arrow on piston crown.
NOTE: Verify that match marks on connecting rod cap
and shank are aligned as shown in Figure 89.

16. Rotate crankshaft two revolutions to be sure crankshaft,
connecting rod, and piston move freely without binding.
17. Move connecting rod sideways to verify clearance on
each side of crankpin journal.
18. Check operation of yoke on Mechanical Compression
Release (MCR) mechanism on camshaft gear.
Torque
110-140 lb-in (12.4-15.8 N-m)
124-142 lb-in (14-16 N-m)

NOTE: Press yoke to the OPEN position, and then
verify that it returns to the CLOSED position when
released.
19. Thoroughly lubricate tappet bores and tappet shafts
with clean engine oil.
20. Install tappets into tappet bores. Be sure to install each
tappet in the same bore from which it was removed.
21. Lubricate MAG side camshaft bearing journal, camshaft
lobes, and camshaft bearing bore in crankcase with
clean engine oil.
22. See Figure 90. Verify that valve tappets are clear of
camshaft lobes, and install camshaft into bearing bore
aligning timing mark on camshaft gear root with timing
mark on crankshaft gear tooth (A).
23. Lubricate the camshaft and crankshaft gear mesh (B)
with clean engine oil.
24. Lubricate the PTO side camshaft bearing journal (C),
and camshaft bearing bore in crankcase cover with
clean engine oil.
25. Verify that mating surfaces of crankcase and crankcase
cover are clean and dry. Any dust or dirt left on mating
surfaces can cause leaks.
26. Verify two locating pins are present on crankcase
flange. Install new locating pins if damaged or missing.
27. Install new crankcase cover gasket onto locating pins.
