Remove the connecting rod bearing nuts and remove the
connecting rod bearing caps in pairs
(1-6,2-5,3-4), turn- ingthecrankshaftfor accessas required. As each connect- ing rod bearing cap is removed, ensure that each
connecting rod and connecting rod bearing cap are identi- fied to each other for re-pairing during assembly.
. As each cap is removed, its relative connecting rod and
piston assembly should be pushed up the bore, enabling
the crankshaft to be rotated to remove the remaining caps.
Care should be taken not to push the piston too far up the
cylinder bore as this will release
the piston rings.
Ensuring that the main bearing caps are marked relative
to the cylinder block (1 Fig. 3), remove the main bearing
cap bolts and the bearing caps, and carefully lift out the
crankshaft.
Remove and discard the bearing shells and the thrust
washers.
. Clean the bearing caps and the cylinder block main bear- ing housings.
Fit the new bearing shell halves to the cylinder block and
lubricate with clean engine oil.
