7 FITTING PISTON RINGS 1. Place the piston ring in the cylinder sleeve and square it up with the cylinder wall by inserting the piston and moving the ring slightly. 2. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge. If the gap is less than specifi ed, remove the ring and dress the ends with a fi ne fi le until the proper clearance is obtained. With insuffi cient clearance, expansion from heat will cause the ring ends to but, resulting in warped rings and scored cylinder. Assemble the piston ring in the proper grooves of the piston. Oil the rings generously when installing. It is desirable to lightly hone the cylinder walls to cut any glaze. This will cause the piston rings to seat better. The C-46 piston with connecting rod is installed easier if the piston rings are not assembled on the piston before installation. The piston rings are assembled on the piston after the piston has been inserted into the engine. To accomplish this, the piston and connecting rod must be pushed into the cylinder sleeve from the back of the engine and far enough that the top of the piston sticks out of the sleeve. The piston rings are then assembled on the piston. CONNECTING ROD The connecting rod is machined for precision fi t with the cap bored to accommodate aluminum precision shell bearings with shims. When installing shell bearings, the bearing back and bore surface must be absolutely clean and free of oil. The bearing face should be oiled to assure lubrication when the engine is fi rst started. NOTE: Never scrape precision shell bearings, and DO NOT FILE the connecting rod parting surface to adjust the bearing. Install a new bearing. TIMING CAMSHAFT To obtain correct ignition and valve timing, it will be necessary to time the camshaft and crankshaft by meshing the gears correctly. 1. Insert camshaft Assy into crankcase, making sure the oil pressure plunger is in place. 2. Lift the camshaft Assy into position and insert the upper left hand screw through the cover plate. Catch the thread three or four turns. 3. Turn the engine to BOTTOM dead center (eye setting is close enough). 4. Rock the camshaft gear out of mess by manipulating the lower end of the camshaft Assy. 5. Turn the camshaft gear until the hole in the upper drive gear is central in the hole in the top of the crankcase (under the governor), with the camshaft block forced against the cover plate, in the position it shall have when all screws are down tight. To check, tighten the screw temporarily used to hold the camshaft block in place. Should this force the holes out of alignment, try changing the mesh of the gear by one tooth in the direction to bring the holes central. When the holes are central with the crank at outer dead center, the camshaft will be timed exactly right. Next, loosen the single screw used to hold the camshaft Assy in place and insert and tighten the two small piloted screws. Then, secure the two larger screws and fi nally insert the central screw. Do not tighten the central screw too tightly, as it may distort the cover plate. It should only be tight enough to prevent oil leakage. Make the necessary oil connection on the inside of the crankcase and reassemble the parts removed. 32 C-SERIES SERVICE, OPERATION & PARTS MANUAL – AEPB1 1-800-331-3662
