Rod bearing :
Inspect bearing shells for signs of fusion, pitting, burn or flak-
ing and observe contact pattern. Bearing shells found in
defective condition must be replaced.
Two kinds of rod bearing are available; standard size bearing
and 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.) undersize bearing. For identifica-
tion of undersize bearing, it is painted red at the position as
indicated in figure, undersize bearing thickness is 1.605 –
1.615 mm (0.0632 – 0.0635 in.) at the center of it.
Rod bearing clearance :
1) Before checking bearing clearance, clean bearing and crank
pin.
2) Install bearing in connecting rod and bearing cap.
3) Place a piece of gaging plastic (1) to full width of crank pin as
contacted by bearing (parallel to crankshaft), avoiding oil
hole.
4) Install rod bearing cap (1) to connecting rod.
When installing cap, be sure to point arrow mark (2) on cap
to crankshaft pulley side, as shown in figure. After applying
engine oil to rod bolts and tighten cap nuts (3) gradually as
follows.
a) Tighten all cap nuts to 15 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft).
b) Retighten them to 45°.
c) Repeat step b) once again.

5) Remove cap and using a scale (1) on gaging plastic (2)
envelope, measure gaging plastic width at the widest point
(clearance).
If clearance exceeds its limit, use a new standard size bear-
ing and remeasure clearance.

Use a dial gauge to read displacement in axial (thrust) direction of
crankshaft.
If its limit is exceeded, replace thrust bearing with new standard
one or oversize one to obtain standard thrust play.
Crankshaft thrust play
Standard : 0.11 – 0.31 mm (0.0043 – 0.0122 in.)
Limit : 0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)
Out-of-round and taper (uneven wear) of journals
An unevenly worn crankshaft journal shows up as a difference in
diameter at a cross section or along its length (or both). This dif-
ference, if any, is determined by taking micrometer readings. If
any one of journals is badly damaged or if amount of uneven wear
in the sense explained above exceeds its limit, regrind or replace
crankshaft.

Main Bearings
General information
Service main bearings are available in standard size and
0.25 mm (0.0098 in.) undersize, and each of them has 5
kinds of bearings differing in tolerance.
Upper half of bearing (1) has an oil groove (2) as shown in
figure.
Install this half with oil groove to cylinder block.
Lower half of bearing does not have an oil groove.
Visual inspection
Check bearings for pitting, scratches, wear or damage.
If any malcondition is found, replace both upper and lower halves.
Never replace either half without replacing the other half.
Main bearing clearance
Check clearance by using gaging plastic according to the follow-
ing procedure.
1) Remove bearing caps.
2) Clean bearings and main journals.

(parallel to crankshaft) on journal, avoiding oil hole.
4) Tighten bearing cap No.1 bolts (1) – (10) and No.2 bolts (11)
– (20) gradually as follows.
a) Tighten bolts (1) – (10) to 30 N·m (3.0 kg-m, 22.0 lb-ft)

not, it will be necessary to regrind crankshaft journal for use
of 0.25 mm undersize bearing.
After selecting new bearing, recheck clearance.
