Engine Block
Crankshaft Main Bearing Replacement
Main Bearing Clearance Inspection
1. To check main bea ring-to-jou rna I oil clearance.
remove the lower block and bearing halves (see
page 1 -12)..
2, Clean each main journal and bearing half witha
clean shop towel.
3. Place one strip of plastigage across each main
lou rnal.
4. Reinstallthe bearings and lower block, then torque
the bolts to 29 N.m {3.0 kgf.m,22 lbf.ft) + 56'.
NOTE: Do not rotate the crankshaft during
Inspeclton.
5. Remove the lower block and bearings again, and
measure the widest part of the plastigage.

6. lf the plastigage measures too wide or too narrow,
remove the crankshaft. and remove the upper half
ofthe bearing. Install a new, complete bearing with
the same color code{s), and recheck the clearance.
Do not file, shim, or scrape the bearings or the caps
to adjust clearance.
7. lf the plastigage shows the clearance is still
incorrect, try the next larger or smaller bearing (the
color listed above or below that one), and check
again. lf the proper clearance cannot be obtained
by using the appropriate larger or smaller bearings,
replace the crankshaft and start over.

3. Use the crank bore codes and crank journal codes
to select the appropriate replacement bearings
from the following table.
NOTE:. Color code is on the edge of the bearing.. When using bearing halves of different colors. it
does not matter which color is used in the top or
bottom.

Connecting Rod Bolt Inspection
Measure the diameter of each connectinq rod bolt
at Doint A and ooint B.
35 mm
Calculate the difference in diameter between point
A and point B.
Point A-Point B = Difference in Diameter
Diflerence in Diameter:
Specification: 0 0.1 mm (0 0.004 in.)
lf the difference in diameter is out of tolerance,
replace the connecting rod bolt.
