ENGINE REASSEMBLY
NOTE:
All parts to be used in reassembly must be perfectly clean.
Oil the sliding and rubbing surfaces of engine parts just be-
fore using them in reassembly. Use engine oil (Refer to Sec-
tion 0B).
Have the liquid packing ready for use. SUZUKI BOND No.
1215 is specified for the liquid. Use it wherever its use is
specified in order to ensure leak-free (oil and water) work-
manship of reassembly.
There are many running clearances. During the course of
engine reassembly, be sure to check these clearances, one
after another, as they form.
Gaskets, O-rings and similar sealing members must be in
perfect condition. For these members, use replacement
parts in stock.
Tightening torque is specified for important fasteners –
bolts and nuts in the main – of the engine and other compo-
nents. Use torque wrenches and constantly refer to the spe-
cified values given in the text of this manual.
Do not disregard the match marks provided on parts. Some
of them are those given at the time of disassembly.
There are many sets of parts. Crankshaft bearings, con-
necting rods, pistons, etc., are in combination sets. Do not
disturb the combinations and try to see that each part goes
back to where it came from.
Engine reassembly is the reverse of engine disassembly as far as
sequence is concerned, but there are many reassembling steps
that involve measures necessary for restoring the engine as close
to the factory-assembled condition as possible. Only those steps
will be dealt with.
Crankshaft
Be sure to oil crankshaft journal bearings as shown.
