installed, remove the connecting rod caps. If
necessary, thoroughly clean all of the components.
2. Apply clean engine oil to the cylinder bore, to the
piston rings, to the outer surface of the piston and
to the bearing shells for the connecting rod.
Note: Install the bearing shells for the connecting
rods dry when clearance checks are performed.
Refer to Disassembly and Assembly Manual,
"Bearing Clearance - Check". Apply clean engine oil
