TM 5-3895-382-24 NOTICE Keep all parts clean from contaminants. Contaminants    may    cause    rapid    wear    and    shortened component life. 1. Thoroughly clean all of the components. 2. Lubricate  the  piston  and  the  cylinder  liner  with  clean engine oil. 3. Rotate the crankshaft until the connecting rod journal is at   the   bottom   center.      Lubricate   the   connecting   rod journal with clean engine oil. 4. Install   the   upper   connecting   rod   bearing   cap   in   the connecting rod.  Ensure that the location tab is correctly installed in the connecting rod. 5. Lubricate   the   bearing   for   the   upper   connecting   rod journal with clean engine oil. 6. Align the piston rings on the piston so that the distance between the gaps is 120 degrees. Illustration 196 7. Install Tool (A) on the piston. NOTE: Ensure that Tool (A) is installed correctly and that the piston can easily slide out of the tool. NOTE: The arrow or the "FRONT" mark that is on the top of   the   piston   must   be   toward   the   front   of   the engine. 8. Push  the  piston  and  the  connecting  rod  assembly  into the cylinder liner and onto the connecting rod journal. 9. Install    the    lower    connecting    rod    bearing    in    the connecting  rod  cap.    Ensure  that  the  location  tab  is correctly installed in the connecting rod cap. 10. Lubricate  the  lower  connecting  rod  bearing  with  clean engine oil. Illustration 197 11. Install connecting rod cap (2) with bolts (1) and the nuts. Tighten the connecting rod cap bolts and the nuts to a torque of 125 Nm (92 Ib-ft). NOTE: If the connecting  rod  cap  is  held  in  position  with only a bolt, tighten the bolt to a torque of 155 N· m (114 Ib-ft). 12. Rotate the crankshaft in order to ensure that there is no binding. 13. Refer   to   the   Testing   and   Adjusting   Module,   "Basic Block" for the correct procedure on checking the height of the piston above the cylinder block. End By: a. Install  the  piston  cooling  jets.    Refer  to  Disassembly and  Assembly,  "Piston  Cooling  Jets  -  Remove  and Install". b. Install the engine oil pump.  Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Engine Oil Pump - Remove". c. Install  the  cylinder  head.    Refer  to  Disassembly  and Assembly, "Cylinder Head - Remove". Connecting Rod Bearings - Remove SMCS Code: 1219-011 Removal Procedure Start By: a. Remove  the  engine  oil  pan.    Refer  to  Disassembly and Assembly, "Engine Oil Pan - Remove and Install". 7-78
