When using a new crankshaft and connecting rods:
+Identify the pin diameter grade (No. 0, 1, or 2) on front surface
of crankshaft and select the connecting rod bearings of the
same grade.
+There is no grading for the inner diameter of the big end of the
connecting rod.
When re-using the removed crankshaft and connecting rods:
+Measure the inner diameter of the big end of the connecting
rod and make sure it is within the specified range.
+Measure the outer diameter of the crankshaft pin.
+Determine the crankshaft pin grade by comparing the mea-
surement with the values under the column ªCrankshaft pin
ODº of the table below. Choose the bearings of the same
grade.
