• Measure point ″H″.
Piston to Cylinde r Bore Clearance
• Calculate by using diameter of the piston skirt and the cylinder bore diameter (direction X, position B).
(Clearance) = (Cylinder bore diameter) – (piston skirt diameter)
• If calculation exceeds the limit, replace piston/piston pin assembly.
Reboring Cylinder Bore
1. Cylinder bore size is determined by adding pi ston-to-bore clearance to piston diameter “A”.
2. Install main bearing caps, and tighten them to the specified torque. Otherwise, cylinder bores may be dis-
torted in final assembly.
3. Cut the cylinder bores. NOTE:
• When any cylinder needs boring, all other cylinders must also be bored.
• Do not cut too much out of cylinder bore at one time. Cut only 0.05 mm (0.0020 in) or so in diameter at atime.
4. Hone cylinders to obtain the specified piston-to-bore clearance.
5. Measure finished cylinder bore for out-of-round and taper. NOTE:
Measurement should be done after cylinder bore cools down.
CRANKSHAFT JOURNAL DIAMETER
• Measure diameter of crankshaft journals.
• If measurement is out of standard, measure the main bearing oil clearance. Then use the undersize bearing.

• Measure diameter of crankshaft pin using suitable tool.
• If measurement is out of standard, measure connecting rod bear-
ing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing.
OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER OF CRANKSHAFT
• Measure dimensions at four di fferent points as shown on each
journal and pin.
• Out-of-roundness is indicated by the difference in dimension
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 measured value exceeds the standard, correct or replace crankshaft.
• If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected journal or pin. Then select the main bearing or connecting rod bearing.
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT
• Place a V-block on a precise flat table to support the journals onboth ends of the crankshaft.
• Measure at No. 3 journal using suitable tool.
• While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer.
• Half of the movement shows the runout.
• If measurement exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
• Install connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and cap. Tighten connecting rod bolts to the specified
torque. Refer to EM-83, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
Measure inside diameter of connecting rod bearing.
(Oil clearance) = (Inside diameter of connecting rod bearing) –
