Oil Clearance between Piston Pin and Small End Bushing
1. Measure the piston pin O.D. where it contacts the bushing with
an outside micrometer.
2. Measure the small end bushing I.D. with an inside micrometer,
and calculate the oil clearance.
3. If the oil clearance exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
bushing. If it still exceeds the allowable limit, replace the piston
pin.

1. Press out the used bushing using a small end bushing replacing
tool. (See page "SPECIAL TOOLS".)
(When installing)
1. Clean a new small end bushing and bore, and apply engine oil
to them.
2. Using a small end bushing replacing tool, press in a new
bushing (service parts) taking care to see that the connecting
rod oil hole matches the bushing hole.
