EM-248prose procedure

Connecting rod bearing nut torque differs: CD17 single-stage; CD20 uses two-stage angular tightening method.

Assembly (Cont'd)

2
Install pistons with connecting rods. Install them into corresponding cylinder using Tool.
Be careful not to scratch cylinder wall with connecting rod.
Apply engine oil to cylinder wall, piston and bearing.
Arrange so that the front mark on piston head faces to the front of engine.

3
Install connecting rod bearing caps. Apply a little engine oil to the thread of connecting rod bearing nut.
For CD17: 31 - 37 N·m (3.2 - 3.8 kg-m, 23 - 27 ft-lb)
For CD20: (1) Tighten connecting rod bearing nut to 15 ± 1 N·m (1.5 ± 0.1 kg-m, 10.8 ± 0.7 ft-lb). (2) Then tighten an additional 60 +5/-0 degrees turns with an angular tightening wrench: 15 ± 1 N·m (1.5 ± 0.1 kg-m, 10.8 ± 0.7 ft-lb) plus 60 +5/-0 degrees, or 27 - 45 N·m (3.8 - 4.6 kg-m, 27 - 33 ft-lb)
