Reassembly & Installation
- Reassemble piston parts in reverse order of disassembly. Ensure that metering disc does not block bleed slots in piston. Remove rocker cover.
Piston assembly must be purged of air after installing.
- Install piston assembly and spring in lower front cover. Tapered end of spring must face tensioner plug. Install plug and lightly tighten. Fill tensioner piston oil pocket (in lower front cover) with engine oil.
- Piston must be purged of air. Using a screwdriver, move tensioning rail back and forth against piston until oil runs out around tensioner plug threads. Tighten tensioner plug. Install remaining components.
