CYLINDER BLOCK


If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected journal and/or pin. Then select the main
bearing or connecting rod bearing. Refer to EM-233, "
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" and/or EM-
232, "CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT

Place V-block onto surface plate to support journals at both ends
of crankshaft.

Position dial gauge vertically onto No. 3 journal.

Rotate crankshaft to read needle movement on dial gauge.
(Total indicator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Measurement

Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and cap, and
tighten connecting nuts to the specified torque. Refer to EM-217,
"ASSEMBLY" . Use inside micrometer to measure connecting
rod bearing inner diameter.
(Bearing clearance) = (Connecting rod bearing inner diameter) −
(Crankshaft pin outer diameter)

If clearance exceeds the standard, select proper connecting rod
bearing according to connecting rod big end diameter and
crankshaft pin outer diameter to obtain specified bearing oil
clearance. Refer to EM-223, "
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING
ROD BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage

Remove contamination such as engine oil, dust completely from
crankshaft pins and each bearing surface.

Cut plastigage slightly shorter than bearing width, place it in
crankshaft direction, avoiding oil holes.

Install connecting rod bearings to caps, and tighten connecting
rod nuts to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft.

Remove connecting rod caps and bearings, and measure plasti-
gage width using scale on plastigage bag.
NOTE:
If out of specification, take same action mentioned in “Method by Measurement”.Standard : 0.05 mm (0.0020 in)
Limit : 0.10 mm (0.0039 in)

MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Measurement

Install main bearings to cylinder block and bearing cap, and
tighten the bolts to the specified torque. Refer to EM-217,
"ASSEMBLY" . Then, measure the inner diameter of main bear-
ings.
(Bearing clearance) = (Bearing inner diameter) − (Crankshaft
journal outer diameter)

If out of the standard, check main bearing housing inner diame-
ter and crankshaft journal outer diameter, and select appropriate
main bearing to adjust clearance to specifications. Refer to EM-
224, "HOW TO SELECT MAIN BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage

Remove contamination such as engine oil and dust completely
from crankshaft journals and each bearing surface.

Cut plastigage slightly shorter than bearing width. Place it in
crankshaft turning direction, avoiding oil holes.

Install main bearings and bearing cap and tighten to the speci-
fied torque. Refer to EM-217, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening
procedure.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft.

Remove main bearings and bearing caps, and measure plasti-
gage width using scale on plastigage bag.
NOTE:
If out of specification, take same action mentioned in “Method by Measurement”.
CRUSH HEIGHT OF MAIN BEARING

When bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the speci-
fied torque with main bearings installed, the tip end of bearing
must protrude. Refer to EM-217, "
ASSEMBLY" .

If out of the standard, replace main bearings.
CRUSH HEIGHT OF CONNECTING ROD BEARING

When connecting rod bearing cap is removed after being tight-
ened to the specified torque with connecting rod bearings
installed, the tip end of bearing must protrude. Refer to EM-217,
"ASSEMBLY" .

If out of the standard, replace connecting rod bearings.Standard : 0.039 - 0.066 mm (0.0015 - 0.0026 in)

Precautions for Liquid GasketEBS011UN
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.

Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating
use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser (special service
tool).
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.

If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.

Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.

Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling
engine oil and engine coolant.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within
the range shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE

Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.

If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following area.

Oil pan

Oil pan drain plug

Oil pressure switch

Oil filter

Oil cooler

Intake valve timing control cover and intake valve timing control solenoid valve

Front cover

Mating surface between cylinder block and lower cylinder block

Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head

Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover

Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Engine oil pressure check should be in “ Parking position” (A/T models) or “Neutral position” (M/T
models), and should apply parking brake securely.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove RH undercover.
PBIC0249E

ENGINE OIL

3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch, and
remove oil pressure switch using a deep socket (commercial
service tool).
4. Install oil pressure gauge and hose (special service tool).
5. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
6. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
NOTE:
When engine oil temperature is low, engine oil pressure becomes high.
Engine oil pressure [Engine oil temperature at 80°C (176°F)]
If difference is extreme, check oil passage and oil pump for oil leaks.
7. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure switch and engine.
b. Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure switch to specification.
Use Genuine Thread Sealant or equivalent.
c. After warming up engine, make sure there is no leaks of engine oil with running engine.
Changing Engine OilEBS00KO4
WARNING:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer; try to avoid direct
skin contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand
cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Warm up engine, put vehicle horizontally and check for oil leakage from engine components. Refer to LU-
7, "ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE" .
2. Stop engine and wait for 10 minutes.
