2) Measure the crankshaft bend, and correct or replace if
it exceeds the limit.
CAUTION:
If a suitable V-block is not available, install #1 and #5
crankshaft bearing on cylinder block, position crank-
shaft on these bearings and measure crankshaft bend
using a dial gauge.
Crankshaft bend limit:
0.035 mm (0.0014 in)
G2M0179
3) Inspect the crank journal and crank pin for wear. If not
to specifications, replace bearing with an undersize one,
and replace or recondition crankshaft as necessary. When
grinding crank journal or crank pin, finish them to the speci-
fied dimensions according to the undersize bearing to be
used.
Crank pin and crank journal:

4) Measure the thrust clearance of crankshaft at center
bearing. If the clearance exceeds the limit, replace bearing.
Crankshaft thrust clearance:
Standard
0.030—0.115 mm (0.0012—0.0045 in)
Limit
0.25 mm (0.0098 in)
5) Inspect individual crankshaft bearings for signs of
flaking, seizure, melting, and wear.
6) Measure the oil clearance on each crankshaft bearing
by means of plastigauge. If the measurement is not within
the specification, replace defective bearing with an under-
size one, and replace or recondition crankshaft as neces-
sary.
