CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
●Install the connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and the
cap, and tighten the connecting rod bolts to the specified torque.
Using a inside micrometer measure the inner diameter of con-
necting rod bearing.
(Oil clearance) = (Inner diameter of connecting rod bearing) –
(Outer diameter of crankshaft pin)
●If out of specifications, check connecting rod big end inner diam-
eter and crankshaft pin outer diameter, and select appropriate
connecting rod bearing to adjust clearance to specifications.
Refer to EM-83, "
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage
●Remove engine oil and dust on the crankshaft pin and the sur-
faces of each bearing completely.
●Cut a plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and
place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil holes.
●Install the connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod cap,
and tighten the connecting rod bolts to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Never rotate the crankshaft.
●Remove the connecting rod cap and bearings, and using the
scale on the plastigage bag, measure the plastigage width.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the limit is same as that described in “Method of Mea-
surement”.
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
●Install the main bearings to the cylinder block and bearing cap. Measure the main bearing inner diameter
with the bearing cap bolt tightened to the specified torque.
(Oil clearance) = (Inner diameter of main bearing) – (Outer diameter of crankshaft journal)
●If out of specification, check main bearing housing inner diameter and crankshaft journal outer diameter,
and select appropriate main bearing to adjust clearance to specifications. Refer to EM-85, "

MAIN BEARING CRUSH HEIGHT
●When the bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the
specified torque with main bearings installed, the tip end of bear-
ing must protrude.
●If the standard is not met, replace main bearings.
OUTER DIAMETER OF LOWER CYLINDER BLOCK MOUNTING BOLT
●Perform only with M10 (0.39 in) bolts.
●Measure outer diameters (d1, d2) at two positions shown in the figure.
●Measure d2 at a point within block A.
●When the value of d1- d2 exceeds the limit (a large difference in
dimensions), replace the bolt with a new one.
OUTER DIAMETER OF CONNECTING ROD BOLT
●Measure outer diameter (d) at position shown in the figure.
●When “d ” exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner), replace
the bolt with a new one.

MAIN BEARING CAP BOLT DEFORMATION
●Measure the outer diameter of threaded area, d1 and d2, at the
points specified in the figure.
●When the necked point is identified at a point other than where
specified, measure at the point as d2.
●Calculate the difference between d1 and d2.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT DEFORMATION
●Install nuts to connecting rod bolts. Check that the nut can be
screwed smoothly on bolt threads by hand to the last thread on
the bolt.
●If the nut does not screw in smoothly, measure the outer diame-
ter of the bolt thread at the point specified in the figure.
