    Q:
    What should be done after removing the connecting rod/piston assembly for the 2005 Ford Ranger? Posted by Customer
    A:
    After removal, reassemble the connecting rod caps and bearing inserts in their respective connecting rods and install the cap nuts finger tight. Leaving the old bearing inserts in place until reassembly will help prevent the connecting rod bearing surfaces from being accidentally nicked or gouged.

    Q:
    How is piston-to-bore clearance checked for the 2010 Ford Ranger? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Piston-to-bore clearance is checked by measuring the bore and the piston diameter. The piston should be measured across the skirt at a 90-degree angle to and in line with the piston pin. The clearance is obtained by subtracting the piston diameter from the bore diameter.

    Q:
    How should the connecting rod be lubricated before final installation for the 2004 Ford Ranger? Posted by Customer

    Q:
    How should carbon deposits be removed from the top of the piston for the 2009 Ford Ranger? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Scrape all traces of carbon from the top of the piston. A hand-held wire brush or a piece of fine emery cloth can be used once the majority of the deposits have been scraped away. Do not use a wire brush mounted in a drill motor to remove deposits from the pistons.

    Q:
    What should I do to remove the connecting rod/piston assembly for the 2009 Ford Ranger? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Remove the bearing insert and push the connecting rod/piston assembly out through the top of the engine using a wooden hammer handle to push on the upper bearing surface in the connecting rod. If resistance is felt, double-check to ensure that all of the ridge was removed from the cylinder.

    Q:
    What are the signs of overheating or abnormal combustion on the piston for the 1991 Ford Explorer? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Look for scoring and scuffing on the thrust faces of the skirt, holes in the piston crown, and burned areas at the edge of the crown. These issues indicate overheating or abnormal combustion, which caused excessively high operating temperatures. The cooling and lubrication systems should be checked thoroughly.

    Q:
    How should the oil clearance be measured for the 1993 Ford Explorer? Posted by Customer

    A:
    After removal, reassemble the connecting rod caps and bearing inserts in their respective connecting rods and install the cap nuts finger tight. Leaving the old bearing inserts in place until reassembly will help prevent the connecting rod bearing surfaces from being accidentally nicked or gouged.
