piston pin outer and connecting rod.
CAUTION
- Take care that piston pin is not damaged dining reassemble.
- When replace the piston pin, check the piston pin outer diameter and
connecting rod small end
inner diameter as below.

0.8664in)
Connecting rod small end inner diameter : 22.005 ~ 22.011 mm (0.8663
~ 0.8665in)
Interference : -0.014mm ~ -0.005mm (0.0006 ~ 0.0002in)
- Set the snap ring in one side of piston pin hole and insert the piston
pin into the piston pin hole & the small
end bore of connecting rod while meeting the front mark of connecting rod &
piston.
CAUTION
Be sure to keep the small end bore, piston pin hole & piston pin from
being damaged and scratched
when inserting the piston pin.
NOTE
Assembling condition
Temperature: piston side 70 to 80C, connecting rod & pin is to be normal
room temperature.
