- Arrows should specify in the bottom of pistons in a direction of a forward part of the engine;

- сориентируйте locks of piston rings rather each other at an angle in 120 ° on a cylinder surface;

Fig. 66. Installation of the piston by means of special tool VW3278

- Put on a coupling tape collar 3278 piston rings on the piston (fig. 66) and press piston rings into piston flutes;

Fig. 67. An alternative coupling tape collar for installation of pistons

- For this purpose it is possible to use also the replacement tool applied by firm "Volkswagen" — a coupling tape collar (fig. 67);

- Check up that piston rings have completely entered into the flutes;

- Turn a cranked shaft so that two шатунные necks of a cranked shaft have appeared in the bottom dead point (НМТ);

- Establish the loose leaf of the bearing of a rod in a rod;

- Insert a rod from above into a cylinder aperture. For this purpose put the engine sideways so that the rod could be directed on a radical neck. Watch, that the aperture of the cylinder and a rod neck thus have not been scratched;

- Insert pistons so that piston rings have by turns entered into apertures of cylinders and a heel of a rod of village on шатунную a neck of a cranked shaft;

- Insert the second loose leaf into a bearing cover so that the unbent short moustache of the loose leaf of villages in a groove of a cover of the bearing. Grease surfaces of loose leaves with engine oil;

- Press a rod cover to a rod and easily knock on it. Grease with engine oil bolts of fastening of a rod and twist them;

Fig. 56. Assemblage of a rod and a cover of the bearing of a rod. By arrows ledges are shown

- Necessarily once again be convinced that both cast ledges are located, as is shown in fig. 56. Both cast ledges on a rod and a rod cover should be located opposite and specify in a pulley direction;

- Alternately tighten bolts of fastening of the bearing of a rod the moment 30 Н·м then turn them from this final position on 90 ° (on a turn quarter);

- After rod installation turn a cranked shaft some times to be convinced that it rotates easily, without jammings;

- Once again check up marks of all rods to be convinced that cтрелки pistons specify in a correct direction;

Fig. 68. Measurement of an axial backlash between a lateral plane of the bearing of a rod and a lateral surface of a cranked shaft

- With the help щупа measure an axial backlash between a lateral plane of bearings of a rod and a lateral surface of a cranked shaft (fig. 68) which should not exceed 0,31 mm;

- Establish oil картер (see подразд. 4.1);

- All further works on assemblage are made in an order, the return to dismantling.
