3239080 - 1028H60 piston, pin set - replace

Dismantling ( Reassembling ) 1. Remove the circlips2. Remove the pins (2a) and separate the connecting rods (2b) from the pistons (2c).3. Remove the piston rings (3a) from the pistons using a suitable tool (3b). Reassembling ( Dismantling ) Check the alignment of the connecting rods using a suitable tool; if the connecting rods are not perfectly aligned they must be replaced. Check that the difference in weight between the connecting rods, complete with half-bearings, caps and bolts, is within the recommended values.

The arrows in the diagram show the areas where material can be removed from in order to equalize the weight.

	Measurement		Value
-	Maximum difference in weight between connecting rods (g.)		± 5

Refit the piston rings using a suitable tool1. Join the connecting rod to the piston so that:for the left bank, arrow (1a) stamped on the piston is turned toward the same side as the stamp (1b) on the connecting rod; for the right bank, arrow (1c) stamped on the piston is turned towards the opposite side to the stamp on the connecting rod. Refit the pin and secure using piston rings.
