Limit: 0.30 mm (0.0118 in)2. Main bearing clearance
1) Remove the main bearing caps in the sequence
shown in the illustration.
Arrange the removed main bearing caps in the
cylinder number order.
2) Remove the crankshaft. Remove the main
bearings.
3) Clean the upper and lower bearings as well as
the crankshaft main journal.
4) Check the bearings for damage or excessive
wear.
The bearings must be replaced as a set if
damage or excessive wear is discovered during
inspection.
