Use Tooling (C) to install piston rings (6) on piston (3).
The ends of the oil control piston ring should be 180 degrees away from the oil ring end gap. The white-colored section of the oil ring spring should also be visible at the oil ring end gap.
Install the intermediate ring with the side that is marked "UP" toward the top of the piston. Position the intermediate ring with the green strip on the right side of the end gap.
Install the top piston ring with the red strip on the right side of the end gap.
The piston ring end gaps must be approximately 120 degrees away from each other after installation.

Improper installation of the piston and connecting rod assembly will result in severe damage to the engine.Make sure that the side of the connecting rod bore with the chamfer is oriented next to the surface of the crankshaft thrust plate. The square side of the connecting rod bore must be next to the other connecting rod that is on the same crankshaft journal.
Place clean engine oil on the piston rings and the cylinder liner bore. Use Tooling (H) to compress the piston rings.
Install the piston and connecting rod assembly in the engine.

Install the lower half of the connecting rod bearing in connecting rod cap (2). Ensure that the tab on the back of the bearing is in the bearing tab groove on connecting rod cap (2).
Check the clearance of the bearings. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Bearing Clearance - Check" for the correct procedure.
Place clean engine oil on the upper half and on the lower half of the connecting rod bearing.
Apply Tooling (J) to the threads of the bolts and the threads in connecting rod caps (2).
Position connecting rod cap (2) on the connecting rod and install bolts (1) in connecting rod cap (2).

Tighten Bolts (A) and (B) to a torque of 90 5 N m (65 4 lb ft).
Tighten Bolts (C) and (D) to a torque of 90 5 N m (65 4 lb ft).
Tighten Bolts (C) and (D) again to a torque of 90 5 N m (65 4 lb ft).
Tighten all of the bolts for an additional 90 5 degrees.
Check the side clearance that is between two of the connecting rods that are on the same journal. The clearance must be 0.85 0.332 mm (0.034 0.0130 inch).
Use Tooling (A) to turn the engine in order to access the bolts in the connecting rod cap. End By:
Install the piston cooling jets. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Piston Cooling Jets - Remove and Install".
Install the cylinder head. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Cylinder Head - Install".
