8. CHECK CRANKSHAFT THRUST CLEARANCE
Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance
while prying the crankshaft back and forth with a
screwdriver.
Standard thrust clearance:
0.020 ± 0.220 mm (0.0008 ± 0.0087 in.)
Maximum thrust clearance:
0.30 mm l0.0118 in.)
If the thrust clearance is greater than maximum, re±
place the thrust washers as a set.
Thrust washer thickness:
2.440 ± 2.490 mm 10.0961 ± 0.0980 in.)
(b) Using the removed main bearing cap bolts, pry the
main bearing cap back and forth, and remove the main
bearing caps, lower bearings and lower thrust wash±
ers (No.3 main bearing cap only).
HINT:
wKeep the lower bearing and main bearing cap
together.
wArrange the main bearing caps and lower thrust
washers in correct order. HINT:
wKeep the bearings, connecting rod and cap to±
gether.
wArrange the piston and connecting rod assembl±
ies in correct order.
9. REMOVE MAIN BEARING CAPS AND CHECK OIL
CLEARANCE

(d) Clean each main journal and bearing.
(e) Check each main journal and bearing for pitting and
scratches.
If the journal or bearing is damaged, replace the bear±
ings. If necessary, grind or replace the crankshaft. (c) Lift out the crankshaft.
HINT: Keep the upper bearing and upper thrust wash±
ers together with the cylinder block.
(h) Install the main bearing caps.
(See step 4 on page EG1±121)
Torque: 59 N±m (600 kgf±cm, 43 ft±lbf)

HINT: If replacing the cylinder block subassembly, the
bearing standard clearance will be:

If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace
the bearings. If necessary, grind or replace the crank±
shaft.
HINT: If using a standard bearing, replace it with one
having the same number. If the number of the bearing
cannot be determined, select the correct bearing by
adding together the numbers imprinted on the cylin±
der block and crankshaft, then selecting the bearing
with the same number as the total. There are 5 sizes
of standard bearings, marked ª1º, ª2º, ª3º, ª4º and ª5º
accordingly.Measure the Plastigage at its widest point.
