CAUTION
If the connecting rod bearings have been
used in a running engine, they must be
replaced with new connecting rod bearings
for reassembly.
7 Before removing the connecting rods, check the connecting rod side clearance using the following procedure: a Tap the connecting rod to one end of the crankshaft journal with a dead blow or wooden hammer.
b Using feeler gauges, measure the clearance between the crankshaft counterweight and the connecting rod.
c The connecting rod side clearance should not exceed specifications, refer to 5 Specifications.

d If the endplay exceeds the specified limits, measure the width of the crankpin end of the connecting rod, refer
to 5 Specifications.
e If the connecting rod width is significantly smaller than specified and severe wear is present on the side of the connecting rod, replace the connecting rod.
f If the connecting rod width is within specification and excessive scoring is present on the crankshaft journals, replace the crankshaft.
CAUTION
Do not use a stamp, punch or any other
method that may distort or stress the
connecting rod and cap. Extensive engine
damage may result from a connecting rod that
is distorted or stressed.
8 Mark the cylinder number on the connecting rod and the connecting rod cap with a paint stick or permanent marker.
CAUTION
Powdered metal connecting rods have rod
bolts which yield when tighten to the
specified torque. If the bolts are loosened or
removed they must be replaced. Rod bolts
that are not replaced will not torque to the
correct clamp load and can lead to serious
engine damage.
9 Remove the connecting rod bolts (1), loosening progressively from side to side.

CAUTION
The connecting rod caps must remain with
the original connecting rod.
10 Remove the connecting rod cap (2).

Connecting Rod Bearing Clearance Measurement Procedure
NOTE
Before final assembly, check the clearance of the
new connecting rod bearings.
1 Place a length of fresh, room temperature plastic gauging material all the way across the connecting
rod bearing journal.
2 Install the connecting rod bearing into the connecting rod cap.
3 Install the connecting rod end cap (1) on its original connecting rod and ensure the bearing lock tangs are
aligned on the same side of the rod.
Figure 6A1 – 407
NOTE
Reuse the old connecting rod bolts only for
measuring the connecting rod bearing clearance.
4 Install the connecting rod cap bolts into the connecting rod cap and tighten to the correct torque specification using torque angle wrench, Tool No. EN-7115.
Connecting rod cap attaching
bolt torque specification:
Stage 1 .........................30.0 Nm
Stage 2 ........ Loosen completely
Stage 3 .........................25.0 Nm
Stage 4 .................. 110 degrees
5 Allow the assembly to sit for at least 2 minutes.
6 Remove the connecting rod cap bolts and discard.
7 Remove the connecting rod cap.

8 Determine the connecting rod bearing clearance by
comparing the width of the flattened plastic
gauging (1) material at its widest point with the
graduation on the gauging material container (2).
9 Compare the measurements with the specifications, refer to 5 Specifications.
10 If the new bearings do not provide the correct crankshaft to connecting rod bearing clearance,
inspect the following:
11 Measure the crankshaft connecting rod journals for the correct specified size and ensure the correct new
bearings are being installed. If the crankshaft
connecting rod journals are incorrectly sized, replace
or regrind the crankshaft. Crankshaft machining is
permitted and undersized bearings are available.
12 Measure the connecting rod bearing bore diameter to ensure correct size. The connecting rod is not
machineable and the connecting rod must be
replaced if out of specification.
13 Clean the plastic gauging material from the connecting rod bearing journals using a soft lint-free
cloth.
Figure 6A1 – 408
Connecting Rod Final Assembly Procedure
1 Carefully guide the connecting rod away from the crankshaft connecting rod journal slightly to lubricate
the crankshaft connecting rod bearing journal.
2 Apply a liberal amount of clean engine oil to the crankshaft connecting rod bearing journal.
3 Guide the connecting rod to the crankshaft connecting rod journal.
4 Install the connecting rod end cap (1) on its original connecting rod and ensure the bearing lock tangs are
aligned on the same side of the rod.
CAUTION
• Do not lubricate the new connecting rod
bolts. The new bolts have a pre-applied
graphite lubricant. Applying lubricant to
the connecting rod bolts will effect the
clamp load when the connecting rod
bolts are tightened to the specified
torque. Incorrect clamp load can lead to
component failure and extensive engine
damage.
• Do not reuse the old connecting rod
bolts.
Figure 6A1 – 409
5 Install new connecting rod bolts into the connecting rod cap and tighten to the correct torque specification. „ Connecting rod cap attaching bolt
