Cylinder Head Bolt No. 1 Inspection
Reference: VALVE AND CYLINDER HEAD DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
Note. If cylinder head bolt No. 1 (1) is reused, check thread diameter for deformation as follows and replace it with a new one if thread diameter difference exceeds the limit
Use a micrometer (3) to measure the thread diameter of each cylinder head bolt No. 1 "A" at "a" and "B" at "b".
Then calculate difference in diameters (A - B).
Replace cylinder head bolt No. 1 with new bolt if it exceeds limit.
Cylinder head bolt No. 1 diameter measurement points
"a": 95.0 mm (3.74 in.)
"b": 130.0 mm (5.11 in.)
Cylinder head bolt No. 1 diameter difference (deformation)
Limit (A - B): 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.)

Cylinder, Piston and Piston Ring Inspection
Reference: PISTON, PISTON RING AND CONNECTING ROD DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
Check cylinder walls for scratches, roughness or ridges which indicate excessive wear.
Replace cylinder block, piston rings and/or pistons if cylinder wall is too rough, deeply scratched or ridged.
Inspect piston for cracks or other damages.
Replace piston if any abnormalities are found.
Piston Pins and Connecting Rods Inspection
Reference: PISTON, PISTON RING AND CONNECTING ROD DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
Check piston pin, connecting rod small-end bore and piston pin hole in piston for wear or damage, paying particular attention to condition of small-end bore bushing.
Replace piston pin, connecting rod and/or piston if piston pin, connecting rod small-end bore or piston pin hole in piston is badly worn or damaged.
Crankshaft Pin and Connecting Rod Bearings Inspection
Reference: PISTON, PISTON RING AND CONNECTING ROD DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
