Replacing Piston Pin Bushing
(When removing)
1. Press out piston pin bushing with a piston pin bushing replacing
tool.
(When installing)
1. Clean the new bushing and bore, and apply engine oil to them.
2. Insert a new bushing onto the tool and press-fit it with the press
so that the oil holes (2) are aligned as shown in the figure, until
it is flush with the connecting rod.
3. Drill a hole to the bushing with aligning the oil hole (2) of
connecting rod using 4.0 mm dia. (0.16 in. dia.) drill.
NOTE
• Be sure to chamfer the oil hole circumference with an oil
stone.
• Check that the seam (1) of the bushing positions as shown
in the figure.
(Reference)
• Service parts dimension:
Factory specification
Oil clearance between
piston pin and bushing
Allowable limit
Piston pin O.D.
Factory specification
Piston pin bushing I.D.
(1) Seam
(2) Oil Hole
Connecting Rod Alignment
NOTE
• Since the piston pin bushing I.D. is the basis of this check,
check bushing for wear beforehand.
1. Remove the connecting rod bearing and install the bearing cap.
2. Install the piston pin into the connecting rod.
3. Install the connecting rod on the connecting rod alignment tool.
4. Put a gauge over the piston pin and move it against the face
plate.
5. If the gauge does not fit squarely against the face plate,
measure the space between the pin of the gauge and the face
plate.
6. If the measurement exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
connecting rod.
