CRANKSHAFT PIN JOURNAL DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameter of crankshaft pin journal with micrometer.

If out of the standard, measure the connecting rod bearing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing.
Refer to EM-105, "
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER OF CRANKSHAFT

Measure the dimensions at four different points as shown in the
figure on each main journal and pin journal with micrometer.

Out-of-round is indicated by the difference in dimensions
between “X” and “Y” at “A” and “B”.

Taper is indicated by the difference in dimension between “A”
and “B” at “X” and “Y”.

If the measured valve exceeds the limit, correct or replace crankshaft.

If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then
select main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing. Refer to EM-106, "
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEAR-
ANCE" and/or EM-105, "CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT

Place a V-block on a precise flat table to support the journals on
the both end of the crankshaft.

Place a dial indicator straight up on the No. 3 journal.

While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer on
the dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Calculation

Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and cap, and tighten connecting rod bolts to the speci-
fied torque. Refer to EM-86, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.

Measure the inner diameter of connecting rod bearing with
inside micrometer.
(Bearing oil clearance) = (Connecting rod bearing inner diame-
ter) – (Crankshaft pin journal diameter)

If the clearance exceeds the limit, select proper connecting rod
bearing according to connecting rod big end diameter and
crankshaft pin journal diameter to obtain specified bearing oil
clearance. Refer to EM-92, "
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING
ROD BEARING" .

same as that described in the “Method by Calculation”.
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Calculation

Install main bearings to cylinder block and lower cylinder block, and tighten lower cylinder block mounting
bolts to the specified torque. Refer to EM-86, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.

Measure the inner diameter of main bearing with bore gauge.
(Bearing oil clearance) = (Main bearing inner diameter) – (Crank-
shaft main journal diameter)

If the clearance exceeds the limit, select proper main bearing
according to main bearing housing inner diameter and crankshaft main journal diameter to obtain speci-
fied bearing oil clearance. Refer to EM-95, "
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.

If it exceeds the limit (a large difference in dimensions), replace
lower cylinder block mounting bolt with a new one.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT OUTER DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameter “d” at position as shown in the fig-
ure.

Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery DisconnectBBS007TP
NOTE:

This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM).

Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK″ position.

Always use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing
work. If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-II.
Precautions for Drain Engine CoolantBBS007TQ
Drain engine coolant when engine is cooled.
Precautions for Disconnecting Fuel PipingBBS007TR

Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.

Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.

After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precautions for Removal and DisassemblyBBS007TS

When instructed to use special service tools, use specified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid
forceful or uninstructed operations.

Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.

Cover openings of engine system with tape or equivalent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.

Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organized way for easy troubleshooting and re-assembly.

When loosening bolts and nuts, as a basic rule, start with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified.
Precautions for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementBBS007TT
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precautions for Assembly and InstallationBBS007TU

Use torque wrench to tighten nuts and bolts to specification.

EM-120
[VQ]
PRECAUTIONS


When tightening bolts and nuts, as a basic rule, equally tighten in several different steps starting with the
ones in center, then ones on inside and outside diagonally in this order. If the order of tightening is speci-
fied, do exactly as specified.

Replace with new gasket, packing, oil seal or O-ring.

Thoroughly wash, clean, and air-blow each part. Carefully check engine oil or engine coolant passages for
any restriction and blockage.

Avoid damaging sliding or mating surfaces. Completely remove foreign materials such as cloth lint or dust.
Before assembly, oil sliding surfaces well.

Release air within route when refilling after draining engine coolant.

After repairing, start engine and increase engine speed to check engine coolant, fuel, engine oil, and
exhaust gases for leakage.
Parts Requiring Angle TighteningBBS007TV

Use angle wrench [SST: KV10112100] for the final tightening of the following engine parts:
–Cylinder head bolts
–Main bearing cap bolts
–Connecting rod cap nuts (VQ23DE)
–Connecting rod cap bolts (VQ35DE)
–Crankshaft pulley bolt

Do not use a torque value for final tightening.

The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.

Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and coated with engine oil.
Precautions for Liquid GasketBBS007TW
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING

After removing mounting nuts and bolts, separate the mating
surface using seal cutter (SST) and remove old liquid gasket
sealing.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.

Tap seal cutter to insert it, and then slide it by tapping on the
side as shown in the figure.

In areas where seal cutter (SST) is difficult to use, use plastic
hammer to lightly tap the parts, to remove it.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason tool such as screwdriver is
used, be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Using scraper, remove old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket
application surface and the mating surface.

Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the gas-
ket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating sur-
face with white gasoline (lighting and heating use) to remove
adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.

CAUTION:

Make sure belt is correctly engaged with the pulley groove.

Make sure that for engine oil, working fluid and engine coolant do not adhere to belt and each
pulley groove.
2. Adjust belt tension. Refer to EM-128, "
Tension Adjustment" .
3. Tighten each nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
