(j) Measure the Plastigage at its widest point.
Standard clearance:
STD0.042 − 0.060 mm (0.0017 − 0.0024 in.)
U/S 0.250.041 − 0.081 mm (0.0016 − 0.0032 in.)
Maximum clearance: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace the bear-
ings. If necessary, grind or replace the crankshaft.
HINT:
If using a standard bearing, replace with one having the same
number. If the number of the bearing cannot be determined, se-
lect the correct bearing by adding together the numbers im-
printed on the cylinder block and crankshaft, then selecting the
bearing with the same number as the total. There are 5 sizes
of standard bearings, marked ”2”, ”3”, ”4”, ”5” and ”6”\
accorking-
ly.

If the diameter is greater than maximum, rebore all the 6 cylin-
ders. If necessary, replace the cylinder block.
(d) Remove the cylinder ridge.
If the wear is less than 0.2 mm (0.008 in.), using a ridge reamer,
grind the top of the cylinder.
(e) Inspect the main bearing cap bolts.
Using vernier calipers, measure the thread outside diam-
eter of the bolt.
Standard outside diameter:
10.85 − 11.00 mm (0.4271 − 0.4331 in.)
Minimum outside diameter: 10.6 mm (0.417 in.)

3. INSPECT BEARING OF OIL PUMP DRIVE SHAFT
GEAR
Check the bearing for pitting and scratches.
If the bearing is damaged, replace the cylinder block.
4. CLEAN PISTON
(a) Using a gasket scraper, remove the carbon from the pis-
ton top.
(b) Using a groove cleaning tool or broken ring, clean the pis-
ton ring grooves.
(c) Using solvent and a brush, thoroughly clean the piston.
NOTICE:
Do not use a wire brush.
5. INSPECT PISTON AND CONNECTING ROD
(a) Inspect the piston oil clearance.
HINT:
There are 3 sizes of the standard piston diameter , marked ”1”,
”2” and ”3”. The mark is stamped on the piston top.

HINT:
If the location of this area cannot be judged by visual inspection,
measure the outer diameter at the location shown in the illustra-
tion.
If the outside diameter is less than minimum, replace the con-
necting rod bolt and nut as a set.
6. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT
(a) Inspect for circle runout. (1) Place the crankshaft on V−blocks.
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout atthe center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.06 mm (0.0024 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, replace the crank-
shaft.

main journal and crank pin.
Main journal diameter:
STD68.982 − 69.000 mm (2.7158 − 2.7165 in.)
U/S 0.2568.745 − 68.755 mm (2.7065 − 2.7069 in.)

U/S 0.2556.745 − 56.755 mm (2.2341 − 2.2344 in.)
If the diameter is not as specified, check the oil clearance (See
page EM−83 ). If necessary, grind or replace the crankshaft.
(2) Check each main journal and crank pin for taper and out−of−round as shown.
Maximum taper and out−of−round:
0.02 mm (0.0008 in.)
If the taper and out −of− round is greater than maximum, replace
the crankshaft.
