1. REMOVE REAR OIL SEAL RETAINER (a) Remove the six bolts.
(b) Remove the oil seal retainer by prying the area between
the oil seal retainer and main bearing cap with a

2. CHECK CONNECTING ROD THRUST CLEARANCE Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance while
moving the two connecting rods back and forth.
Standard thrust clearance: 0.250±0.402 mm
(0.0098±0.0158 in.)
Maximum thrust clearance: 0.50 mm (0.0197 in.)
If the thrust clearance is greater than maximum, replace the
connecting rod assembly(s). If necessary, replace the crank-
shaft.
Connecting rod thickness: 25.898±25.950 mm (1.0196±1.0217 in.)
3. REMOVE CONNECTING ROD CAPS AND CHECK OILCLEARANCE
(a) Check the matchmarks on the connecting rod and cap.
(b) Remove the connecting rod cap bolts.
(c) Using the two removed connecting rod bolts, removethe connecting rod cap and lower bearing by wiggling
the connecting rod cap right and left.

Maximum oil clearance:
STD size 0.08 mm (0.0031 in.)
U/S 0.25 0.09 mm (0.0035 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace the
bearings. If necessary, replace the crankshaft.

HINT: If using a standard bearing, replace with one having
the same number. If the number of the bearing cannot be de-
termined, select the correct bearing by adding together the
numbers imprinted on the connecting rod cap and crank-
shaft, then select the bearing with the same number as the
total. There are five sizes of standard bearings, marked º1º,
º2º, º3º, º4º and º5º accordingly.
