PISTON, RINGS AND CONNECTING RODS
Removal and Disassembly of Piston
and Rod Assemblies
1. Drain oil.
2. Remove oil pan.
3. Remove cylinder head.
4. Examine the cylinder bores above the ring travel.
If bores are worn so a ridge exists, remove the ridges
with a ridge reamer to avoid damaging rings or
cracking ring lands in pistons during removal.
5. Mark the cylinder number on all pistons, connect-
ing rods and caps. Starting at the front end of the
crankcase, the cylinders are numbered l-2-3-4,
6.
Remove cap and bearing shell from number 1
connecting rod.
7. Push the piston and
rod
assembly up and out of
top cylinder. Then reinstall cap and bearing shell on

8. Remove other rod and piston assemblies in the
same manner.
9. Remove compression rings and oil rings.
10. Remove piston pin in following manner:
a. Position base support J-6047 on hydraulic press.
b. Place tool J-23436-2 in base support with large
diameter bore facing upward. See Figure
c. Position piston and rod assembly on tool
23436-2 making certain the pin is aligned on tool.
d. Position tool J-23436-4 in opposite end of piston
pin and press pin out.
Inspection of Cylinder Bores
Inspect cylinder walls for scoring, roughness, or
ridges which indicate excessive wear. Check cylinder
bores for taper and out-of-round with an accurate
cylinder gage at top, middle and bottom
both
parallel and at right angles to the centerline of the
engine. The diameter of the cylinder bores at any
point may be measured with an inside micrometer or
by setting the cylinder gauge dial at “0” and measur-
ing across the gauge contact points with outside mi-
crometer while the gauge is at the same “0” setting.
If a cylinder bore is moderately rough or slightly
scored but is not out-of-round or tapered, it is possi-
ble to repair the bore by honing to accept a standard
service piston. If cylinder bore is very rough or
deeply scored, it may be necessary to rebore the cyl-
inder to fit an oversize piston in order to insure satis-
factory results.
If a cylinder bore is tapered or more, or is
out-of-round or more, it is advisable to hone
or rebore for the smallest possible oversize piston and
rings.
Visual Inspection of Pistons, Rings, and Pins
Clean carbon from piston surfaces and under side of
piston heads. Clean carbon from ring grooves with a
suitable tool and remove any gum or varnish from
piston skirts with suitable solvent.
Carefully examine pistons for rough or scored bear-
ing surfaces, cracks in skirt, head cracked or broken
ring lands, and chipping or uneven wear which
would cause rings to seat improperly or have exces-
sive clearance in ring grooves. Damaged or faulty
pistons should be replaced.
Fitting Pistons to Cylinders
The pistons are cam ground, which means that the
