BEARING AND CRANKSHAFT JOURNAL
CLEARANCE
Measure the connecting rod bore with the bearings
installed and the bolts tightened to 100 N´m (73 ft.
lbs.) torque.
Record the smaller diameter.
Measure the diameter of the rod journal at the
location shown (Fig. 99). Calculate the average diam-
eter for each side of the journal.
The clearance is the difference between the con-
necting rod bore (smallest diameter) and the average
diameter for each side of the crankshaft journal.

and replace if necessary. Carefully straighten any
bends or imperfections in the gear cover with a ball-
peen hammer on a flat surface. Inspect the crank-
shaft front journal for any grooves or nicks that
