grooves are on the main cap side.
+Before installing, apply engine oil on the front (inner) surfaces
of bearings. Do not apply oil to the back surfaces, but thor-
oughly clean them.

correctly, matching the journal No. on the bearing cap and the
journal, with the front mark facing forward.
+Main bearing caps are commonly processed with the cylinder
block. Therefore, caps and cylinder block should be replaced
as a set.

bearing cap, all in the same direction. (when using a protrac-
tor)
d. Then, tighten 90É to 95É [target: 90É].
+Always use either an angle wrench (SST) or protractor
during angular tightening. Avoid tightening based on
visual checks alone.

to observe the following as it may adversely affect elec-
tronic control systems depending on installation location.

from the harness of electronic controls.
Do not let them run parallel for a long distance.
