Suzuki Grand Vitara JB416 / JB420. Manual - part 110

 

 

1D-108 Engine Mechanical: For J20 Engine

• Distortion of manifold seating faces: 

Check seating faces of cylinder head for manifolds, 
using a straightedge and thickness gauge, in order to 
determine whether these faces should be corrected or 
cylinder head replaced.

Distortion for cylinder head surface on intake and 
exhaust manifold
Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 in.)

Valve Spring Inspection

S5JB0A1426048

Valve Spring Free Length and Preload
Referring to data, check to be sure that each spring is in 
sound condition, free of any evidence of breakage or 
weakening. Remember, weakened valve springs can 
cause chatter, not to mention possibility of reducing 
power output due to gas leakage caused by decreased 
seating pressure.

Valve spring free length
Standard: 51.13 mm (2.013 in.)
Limit: 50.13 mm (1.974 in.)

Valve spring preload
Standard: 219 – 241 N (21.9 – 24.1 kg) for 37.60 mm 
(48.3 – 53.1 lb/1.480 in.)
Limit: 208 N (20.8 kg) for 37.60 mm (45.9 lb/1.480 in.)

Spring Squareness
Use a square and surface plate to check each spring for 
squareness in terms of clearance between end of valve 
spring and square. Valve springs found to exhibit a 
larger clearance than limit must be replaced.

Valve spring squareness
Limit: 1.6 mm (0.063 in.)

removing piston from cylinder.

7) Push piston and connecting rod assembly out 

through the top of cylinder bore.

Installation

1) Apply engine oil to pistons, rings, cylinder walls, 

connecting rod bearings and crank pins.

NOTE
Do not apply oil between connecting rod and 
bearing or between bearing cap and bearing.

 

2) When installing piston and connecting rod assembly 

into cylinder bore, point front mark (3) on piston head 
to crankshaft pulley side (1).

 1. Top ring

: “TOP” mark provided on piston ring comes to facing up.

8. Piston pin

 2. 2nd ring

: “TOP” mark provided on piston ring comes to facing up.

9. Piston pin circlip

3. Oil ring

10. Connecting rod bolt

: Check connecting rod bolt, plastic deformation tightening bolt, for deformation when 
reuse it due to plastic deformation tightening referring to “Connecting Rod Bolt” under 
“Pistons, Piston Rings, Connecting Rods and Cylinders Inspection and Cleaning: For 
J20 Engine” if it
 is reused.

4. Piston

: 15 N

⋅m (1.5 kgf-m, 11.0 lb-ft) 45° and 45° by the specified procedure.

 5. Connecting rod

: Apply engine oil to sliding surface of each part.

 6. Connecting rod bearing cap

: See “A”

: Do not reuse.

 7. Connecting rod bearing

: See “B”

“A”: Point arrow mark on cap to crankshaft pulley side. Do not apply engine oil to inner surface of bearing cap.
“B”: Do not apply engine oil between con-rod big end and bearing, between cap and bearing.

3) Install piston and connecting rod assembly into 

cylinder bore. Use special tool (Piston ring 
compressor) to compress rings. Guide connecting 
rod into place on crankshaft.
Using a hammer handle, tap piston head to install 
piston into bore. Hold ring compressor firmly against 
cylinder block until all piston rings have entered 
cylinder bore.

Special tool
(A):  09916–77310

4) Install connecting rod bearing cap (1) as follows.

NOTE
If connecting rod bolt is reused, make sure to 
check connecting rod bolt for deformation

Assembly

NOTE
Two sizes of piston are available as standard size spare part so as to ensure proper piston-to-cylinder 
clearance. When installing a standard size piston, make sure to match piston with cylinder as follows.

 

1) Each piston (1) has stamped number (2) as shown. It represents outer diameter of piston.
2) There are also painted color (3) of red or blue on cylinder block (2) as shown.

3) Stamped number on piston and painted color (or stamped number) on cylinder block should correspond. That is, 

install number “2” stamped piston to cylinder which is identified with blue painted (or “2” stamped) and a number 
“1” piston to cylinder with red painted (or “1” stamped).
Also, a letter “A” or “B” is stamped on piston head but ordinarily it is not necessary to discriminate each piston by 
this letter.
