    RIGHT – Turn the crank so the pistons are all the way out and use a very long screw driver attachment to remove the connecting rod screws. that will also put the two piston ring gaps on the botton where they (Theoretically) will get a little more oil to seal better. Also a good time to deglaze the cylinders and install new piston rings. As I recall the wrist pins are a press fit on one end and a slip fit on the other. Don’t mess with them unless you want to race and then install 75 horse V4 connecting rods with roller bearing wrist pins.
