Connecting Rod Bearings
•Perform the following steps when replacing the connecting rod bearings:
Measure and record the External Diameter of
the connecting rod journals.
Use the connecting rod bearing identification table to locate the desired bearing.
• The bearing will have an identification mark (1) imprinted in the position as shown.

3 White 44.980 - 44.985 3 Blue 1.495 - 1.499
NOTE :
As an example, if the measurement of the external diameter of the connecting rod journal is 44.996 mm, it will be
identified as Group 1 in the table. If the crankshaft has been replaced, check the identification color applied to the
new crankshaft journal. If the journal is yellow, the crankshaft bearing will be from Group 1, and the connecting rod
bearing will be identified as 1.

•Apply engine oil to the connecting rod bolts.
• Install each connecting rod nut finger tight, then
alternately tighten each nut to assemble the cap
properly.
• Tighten the connecting rod nuts using the two step
torque-turn method:
1st Step: Tighten nuts to 20 N·m
2nd Step: Tighten the connecting rod nuts an
additional 90°- 100°
CAUTION:
If the nuts are over tightened (exceed angle of
100°), loosen the nuts and restart the torque
sequence from Step 1.
