If clearance exceeds the limit, select proper main bearing according to main bearing inner diameter and
crankshaft main journal diameter to obtain specified bearing oil clearance. Refer to EM-91, "
HOW TO
SELECT MAIN BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage

Remove engine oil and dust on crankshaft main journal and the surfaces of each bearing completely.

Cut a plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding
oil holes.

Install main bearings to cylinder block and main bearing cap, and tighten main bearing cap bolts to the
specified torque. Refer to EM-81, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.
CAUTION:
Never rotate crankshaft.

Remove main bearing cap and bearings, and using the scale (A)
on the plastigage bag, measure the plastigage width.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the limit is
same as that described in the “Method by Calculation”.
MAIN BEARING CRUSH HEIGHT

When main bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the
specified torque with main bearings (1) installed, the tip end of
bearing must protrude (B). Refer to EM-81, "
ASSEMBLY" for
the tightening procedure.

If the standard is not met, replace main bearings.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING CRUSH HEIGHT

When connecting rod bearing cap is removed after being tight-
ened to the specified torque with connecting rod bearings (1)
installed, the tip end of bearing must protrude. Refer to EM-81,
"ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure (B).

If the standard is not met, replace connecting rod bearings.: 0.012 - 0.022 mm (0.0005 - 0.0009 in)
Limit : 0.065 mm (0.0026 in)

MAIN BEARING CAP BOLT OUTER DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameters (“d1 ”, “d2” ) at two positions as
shown.

If reduction appears in places other than “B” range, regard it as
“d
2 ”.

If it exceeds the limit (a large difference in dimensions), replace
main bearing cap bolt with a new one.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT OUTER DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameter “d” at position as shown.

If reduction appears in a position other than “d”, regard it as “d”.

When “d” exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner), replace
connecting rod bolt with a new one.
CLOGGED OR DAMAGED OIL FILTER (FOR INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL)

Make sure that there is no foreign material on the oil filter and
check it for clogging.
–Clean it if necessary.

Check the oil filter for damage.
–Replace it if necessary.
FLYWHEEL DEFLECTION (M/T MODELS)

Measure the deflection of flywheel contact surface to clutch with
a dial indicator (A).

Measure the deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) diameter.

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.

If a trace of burn or discoloration is found on the surface, repair it
with sandpaper.
CAUTION:
When measuring, keep magnetic fields (such as dial indicator
stand) away from signal plate of the rear end of crankshaft.
MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS)
CAUTION:
Never disassemble double mass flywheel.
Movement Amount of Thrust (Fore-and-Aft) Direction

Measure the movement amount of thrust (fore-and-aft) direction when 100 N (10.2 kg, 22 lb) force is
added at the portion of 125 mm (4.92 in) radius from the center of flywheel.
A : “d1” measuring position
B : “d2” measuring position
Limit (“d1 ” – “d2 ”): 0.15 mm (0.0059 in)

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.
Movement Amount in Radial (Rotation) Direction
Check the movement amount of radial (rotation) direction with the following procedure:
1. Install clutch cover bolt (1) to clutch cover mating hole, and
place a torque wrench (A) on the extended line of the flywheel
(2) center line.

Tighten bolt at a force of 9.8 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 87 in-lb) to keep it
from loosening.
2. Put a mating mark on circumferences of the two flywheel
masses without applying any load (Measurement standard
points).
3. Apply a force of 9.8 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 87 in-lb) in each direction,
and mark the movement amount on the mass on the transaxle
side.
4. Measure the dimensions of movement amounts “A” and “B” on circumference of the flywheel on the tran-
saxle side.

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.Standard : 1.8 mm (0.071 in) or less
Limit: 33.2 mm (1.307 in) or less.
