slowly, and if any resistance is felt as the piston enters the cylinder, stop immediately.

Find out what's binding and fix it before proceeding.

Caution: Do not, for any reason, force the piston into the cylinder - you might break a ring and/or the piston.

12 Make sure the bearing faces are perfectly clean, then apply a uniform layer of clean moly-based grease or engine assembly lube to both of them. You'll have to push the piston higher into the cylinder to expose the face of the bearing shell in the connecting rod, be sure to slip the protective hoses over the rod bolts first.

13 Slide the connecting rod back into place on the journal, remove the protective hoses from the rod cap bolts, install the rod cap and tighten the nuts to the correct torque.

14 Repeat the entire procedure for the remaining pistons/connecting rods.

15 The important points to remember are:

a) Keep the back sides of the bearing shells and the insides of the connecting rods and caps perfectly clean when assembling them.

b) Make sure you have the correct piston/ rod assembly for each cylinder.

c) The dimple or arrow on the piston must face the front of the engine.

d) Lubricate the cylinder walls with clean oil.

e) Lubricate the bearing faces.

16 After all the piston/connecting rod assemblies have been properly installed, rotate the crankshaft a number of times by hand to check for any obvious binding.
