3. Place the valve spring in position over the valve and install the valve spring retainer.
4. Using the 3 Valve Spring Compressors, compress the valve spring and install the valve spring retainer keys.
5. NOTE: Be sure to install the tappets in the same location as they were removed from. Install the 16 valve tappets.
6. Install the CHT sensor. Tighten to 12 Nm (106 lb-in).
7. Install 4 new spark plugs. Tighten to 12 Nm (106 lb-in).

Scheme 43

1. NOTE: The arrow on the top of the piston points towards the front of the engine. Align the piston-to-connecting rod orientation marks, and position the connecting rod in the piston.
2. Lubricate the piston pin and pin bore with clean engine oil.
3. Install the piston pin in the piston and connecting rod assembly.
4. Install the piston pin retaining clips in the piston.
5. Lubricate the piston and the new piston rings with clean engine oil.
6. NOTE: The piston compression upper and lower ring should be installed with the paint mark on the outside diameter circumference of the ring to be positioned on the right side of the ring gap. The lower compression ring can also be installed with the undercut side downward. NOTE: The upper and lower compression ring gaps are not controlled for installation. Install the piston rings onto the piston as shown in illustration.
