7.Repeat above procedures for remaining
valves.Cylinder head gasket selection
CAUTION: New cylinder head gasket
should be same thickness as the original.
If, however, cylinder head, pistons or
crankshaft have been replaced, it will be
necessary to check piston stand proud in order
to determine the correct thickness of gasket.
1.Position a magnetic base DTI to cylinder block
top face adjacent to number 1 cylinder bore.
2.Position stylus of gauge to cylinder block top
face on edge of number 1 cylinder bore; zero
gauge.
3.Rotate crankshaft in a clockwise direction until
numbers 1 and 4 pistons are at TDC.
4.Position stylus of DTI gauge near edge of
piston crown, measure and record number 1
piston stand proud. Measurement must be
taken at front and rear of piston and highest
protrusion figure recorded.
5.Repeat above procedures for remaining
pistons.

Crankshaft - regrinding
NOTE: Crankshaft journals may be
reground to the following dimensions.
Main bearing journals = 63.225 to 63.237 mm
Big-end bearing journals = 58.475 to 58.494 mm
CAUTION: Rotation of crankshaft must be
in an ANTI-CLOCKWISE direction when
viewed from flywheel end of crankshaft.
1.Grind journals ensuring that grinding wheel
travels beyond edge of journalAto avoid
formation of a stepB.
CAUTION: Take care not to damage fillet
radius C.
2.Final finishing should be carried out using a
static lapping stone with crankshaft rotating in
a CLOCKWISE direction when viewed from
flywheel end of crankshaft.
3.On completion of grinding operations,
thoroughly clean crankshaft ensuring that all oil
passages are clear.Main bearing caps and saddles - inspection
1.Ensure main bearing cap bolts and bolt holes
are clean and dry.
2.Fit each main bearing cap less bearing shells
to its correct location ensuring that direction
marks on cap are facing the correct way.
3.Fit and tighten each pair of main bearing cap
bolts to 133 Nm.
4.Slacken the bolt on one side of each main
bearing cap.
5.Using feeler gauges, check that there is no gap
between each main bearing cap and saddle on
the side of the cap with the slackened bolt.
6.If a gap exists, replace main bearing cap and
re-check.
7.If gap still exists, cylinder block must be
replaced.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to machine
main bearing caps or saddles.

main bearing caps ensuring that tags are
located in recesses in saddles and bearing
caps.
NOTE: Number 5 main bearing shells are
wider than numbers 1 to 4.
3.Using assistance, fit crankshaft.
4.Place a piece of Plastigage across width of
each main journal.
5.Fit main bearing caps to their correct location
ensuring that direction marks are facing the
correct way; fit each pair of main bearing cap
bolts and tighten to 133 Nm.
CAUTION: Do not rotate crankshaft.
6.Remove main bearing caps and bearing shells.
CAUTION: Retain main bearing shells and
cap bolts with their respective main
bearing caps.
7.Measure widest portion of Plastigage on each
main bearing journal using the scale supplied;
the graduation that corresponds to the widest
portion of Plastigage indicates main bearing
clearance.
Main bearing clearance = 0.031 to 0.079 mm8.If main bearing clearances are incorrect, use a
combination of standard and oversize main
bearing shells and re-check clearances.
CAUTION: Keep main bearing shells
selected in their fitted order.
9.Remove all traces of Plastigage using an oily
rag.
10.Using assistance, remove crankshaft.
