NEW TIGHTENING METHOD USING PLASTIC REGION TIGHTENING BOLTS
Parts of the engine use plastic region tightening bolts. The tightening procedure for these is different from that of conventional bolts and is described in relevant parts of this manual. Note that plastic region tightening bolts have fixed service limits. These limits are indicated in relevant parts of this manual and must be strictly observed.
Plastic region tightening bolts are used for the following applications:
D
(1) Cylinder head bolts (2) Connecting rod cap bolts The tightening procedure is basically as follows:
D
After tightening a bolt to the specified torque, tighten it by a further 90_+90_or by a further 90–100°. The exact tightening procedure differs depending on the bolt and is described in relevant parts of this manual.

FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET

The engine has several areas where the form-in-place gasket (FIPG) is in use. To ensure that the gasket fully serves its purpose, it is necessary to observe some precautions when applying the gasket. Bead size, continuity and location are of paramount importance. Too thin a bead could cause leaks. Too thick a bead, on the other hand, could be squeezed out of location, causing blocking or narrowing of the fluid feed line. To eliminate the possibility of leaks from a joint, therefore, it is absolutely necessary to apply the gasket evenly without a break, while observing the correct bead size. The FIPG used in the engine is a room temperature vulcanization (RTV) type and is supplied in a 100-gram tube (Part No. MD970389 or MD997110). Since the RTV hardens as it reacts with the moisture in the atomospheric air, it is normally used in the metallic flange areas. The FIPG, Part No. MD970389, can be used for sealing both engine oil and coolant, while Part No. 997110 can only be used for engine oil sealing.
Disassembly
The parts assembled with the FIPG can be easily disassembled without use of a special method. In some cases, however, the sealant between the joined surfaces may have to be broken by lightly striking with a mallet or similar tool. A flat and thin gasket scraper may be lightly hammered in between the joined surfaces. In this case, however, care must be taken to prevent damage to the joined surfaces. For removal of the oil pan, the special tool “Oil Pan Remover” (MD998727) is available. Be sure to use the special tool to remove the oil pan. <Except aluminium die-cast oil pans>
Surface Preparation
Thoroughly remove all substances deposited on the gasket application surfaces, using a gasket scraper or wire brush. Check to ensure that the surfaces to which the FIPG is to be applied is flat. Make sure that there are no oils, greases and foreign substances deposited on the application surfaces. Do not forget to remove the old sealant remained in the bolt holes.
Form-In-Place Gasket Application
When assembling parts with the FIPG, you must observe some precautions, but the procedures is very simple as in the case of a conventional precut gasket. Applied FIPG bead should be of the specified size and without breaks. Also be sure to encircle the bolt hole circumference with a completely continuous bead. The FIPG can be wiped away unless it is hardened. While the FIPG is still moist (in less than 15 minutes), mount the parts in position. When the parts are mounted, make sure that the gasket is applied to the required area only. In addition, do not apply any oil or water to the sealing locations or start the engine until a sufficient amount of time (about one hour) has passed after installation is completed. The FIPG application procedure may vary on different areas. Observe the procedure described in the text when applying the FIPG.

TIMING BELT INSTALLATION
(1) Align the camshaft timing mark with the timing mark on
the cylinder head.
(2) Align the crankshaft timing mark with the timing mark
on the front case.
(3) Keeping the tension side of the timing belt tight, fit the
timing belt onto the crankshaft sprocket, camshaft
sprocket, and tensioner pulley in that order. (4) Loosen the tensioner pulley mounting bolts by 1/4 to
1/2 of a turn an d allow the tensioner spring to apply tension
to the timing belt. (5) Turn the crankshaft twice in the normal rotating direction
(clockwise) and check that the timing marks are correctly
aligned.
Caution
This procedure utilizes the camshaft’s driving torque
to apply tension evenly to the timing belt. Be sure
to turn the crankshaft as described above. Do not
turn the crankshaft in reverse.

INSPECTION
1. CRANKSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE
The crankshaft oil clearance can be measured easily using a plastic gauge. To check the crankshaft oil clearance with a plastic gauge, carry out th e following procedure:
(1) Wipe all oil off the crankshaft journal and the bearing’s
inside surface. (2) Install the crankshaft. (3) Cut the plastic gauge such that its length matches the
width of the bearing, then place it on the journal along
the journal’s axis. (4) Gently fit the crankshaft bearing cap a n d tighten the bolts
to the specified torque. (5) Remove the bolts and gently remove the crankshaft
bearing cap. (6) Using the scale printed on the plastic gauge bag, measure
the plastic gauge’s crushed section at its widest point.
Standard value: 0.02 - 0.04 mm
Limit: 0.1 mm

NOTE The crankshaft pins and journals are fillet-rolled and must not be machined to undersize dimensions.
2. CYLINDER BLOCK
(1) Visually check for cracks, rust, and corrosion, and inspect
the cylinder block using a flaw detecting agent. Rectify
defects where possible or replace the cylinder block. (2) Ensure that the top surface is free of gasket chips and
other foreign material. Check the cylinder block’s top
surface for distortion using a straight edge and thickness
gauge.
Standard value: 0.05 mm
Limit: 0.1 mm
(3) Check the cylinder walls for cracks and seizure marks.
If defects are evident, bore all the cylinders to oversize

3. BORING CYLINDERS
(1) Oversize pistons to be used should be determined on
the basis of the cylinder with the largest bore. (2) Oversize pistons are available with the following oversize
dimensions: 0.25 mm, 0.50 mm, and 1.00 mm. Measure
the diameter of the piston to be used. Boring must be
carried out such that the piston-to-cylinder clearance
complies with th e standard value. The piston’s diameter
should be measured at the points shown. (3) Calculate the boring finish dimension based on the piston
diameter dimension.

boring bore the cylinders in the following order: No.

(2) Identification marks showing the cylinder block bearing
bore diameter are stamped in the position shown, with No. 1 at the front of the engine. Bearings must be selected and installed in accordance with these identificationmarks.
(3) Based on the identification markings verified in steps (1)
and (2), select bearings from table above. See the following example:
1. If the measured crankshaft journal diameter is 48.000 mm, this corresponds to classification 1 in the above
Cylinder block journal bore diameter
table.
2. If the identification mark on the cylinder block bearing hole is “1”, select a bearing with an identification mark of “2”.

BEARING CAP INSTALLATION
(1) On the bottom surface of each bearing cap is the cap’s
number and an arrow. Starting at the timing belt side, fit the bearing caps in numerical order. Ensure that the arrows point toward the timing belt side.
(2) After fitting the bearing caps, measure the end play in
the crankshaft. If the measurement exceeds the specified limit, replace the crankshaft bearings.
Standard value: 0.05 - 0.18 mm Limit: 0.25 mm
