Disassembly and Assembly Procedure Revisions

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

For certain applications, a spacer plate has been added between the flywheel and rear of the crankshaft. It is necessary to remove the spacer plate prior to removal and installation of the crankshaft rear oil seal and clutch pilot bearing.
The piston, pin, and connecting rod are to be serviced as an assembly.
Newer design pistons have a graphite coated piston skirt. The coated skirt outside diameter (OD) may be slightly larger than the cylinder bore inside diameter (ID) and the piston assembly may have a slight interference fit to the cylinder bore during initial installation.
