Install the bolts (5) and the upper half of connecting rod bearing (4). Ensure that the bearing tab engages with the slot in connecting rod (3) .
Illustration 2 g00678195
Install the lower half of connecting rod bearing (4). Ensure that the bearing tab engages with the slot in connecting rod cap (2) .
Place clean engine oil on the following items: the pistons, the piston rings, the cylinder bore, the upper half of the connecting rod bearing and the lower half of the connecting rod bearing.
Install short pieces of rubber hose over both connecting rod bolts in order to protect the crankshaft from the threaded portion of the connecting rod bolts.

Note: Each piston ring end gap must be positioned 120 degrees from each other.
Install Tool (A) in order to compress the piston rings.
With the number one crankshaft throw at the bottom center, install the piston and connecting rod in the engine. Ensure that the proper piston and connecting rod are in the corresponding cylinder with the bearing retainer notch toward the right side of the engine.Note: The etched number on the connecting rod must be on the right side of the engine in the corresponding cylinder.
Line up the piston and the connecting rod with the crankshaft. Use a soft hammer and tap the piston into the cylinder bore until Tool (A) comes off of the piston.
Use a soft hammer in order to tap the piston into the cylinder bore while you guide connecting rod (3) onto the crankshaft.
Remove the hoses that were installed in Step 4 from the connecting rod bolts.
Illustration 5 g00678200
Install connecting rod bearing cap (2) on the connecting rod (3). Ensure that the number on connecting rod bearing cap (2) matches the number on the connecting rod (3). Ensure that the numbers are on the same side.
Lubricate connecting rod cap bolts with 4C-5593 Anti-Seize Compound.

Loose connecting rod nuts can result in the separation of the rod cap and in major engine damage.
Install connecting rod cap nuts (1). Tighten nuts (1) to a torque of 54 7 N m (40 5 lb ft).
Illustration 7 g00678202
Place index mark (7) on the connecting rod. Place index mark (9) on connecting rod cap nut (1). Index marks (7) and (9) mark the initial position of the nut. Place index mark (8) on connecting rod cap nut (1). Index mark (8) should be 60 5 degrees counterclockwise from index mark (9). Tighten each nut (1) for an additional 60 5 degrees (1/6 turn).
