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 bear-
ing and 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.) undersize bearing. For identifi-
cation 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 gauging 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).
Tightening torque
Connecting rod bearing cap nuts
(a) : 15 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft) and extra tightening 45°
twice
5) Remove cap and using a scale (1) on gauging plastic (2)
envelope, measure gauging plastic width at the widest point
(clearance).
If clearance exceeds its limit, use a new standard size bear-
ing and remeasure clearance.
Connecting rod bearing clearance
Standard : 0.029 – 0.047 mm (0.0011 – 0.0019 in.)
Limit : 0.065 mm (0.0026 in.)

INSTALLATION
1) Apply engine oil to pistons, rings, cylinder walls, connecting
rod bearings and crankpins.
2) Install guide hoses (1) over connecting rod bolts.
These guide hoses protect crank pin and threads of rod bolt
from damage during installation of connecting rod and piston
assembly.
3) When installing piston and connecting rod assembly into cyl-
inder bore, point front mark on piston head to crankshaft pul-
ley side.
4) Install piston and connecting rod assembly into cylinder
bore. Use special tool (Piston ring compressor) to compress
rings. Guide connecting rod into place on crankshaft.
Using a hammer handle, tap piston head to install piston into
bore. Hold ring compressor firmly against cylinder block until
all piston rings have entered cylinder bore.
Special tool
(A) : 09916-77310 NOTE:
Do not apply oil between connecting rod and bearing or
between bearing cap and bearing.

After applying oil to rod bolts and tighten cap nuts (3) gradu-
ally 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).
Tightening torque
Connecting rod bearing cap nuts
(a) : 15 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft) and extra tightening 45°
twice.
6) Reverse removal procedure for installation as previously out-
lined.
7) Adjust generator belt tension referring to “Water Pump Belt

Adjustment” in Section 6E.
10) Check to ensure that all removed parts are back in place.
Reinstall any necessary parts which have not been rein-
stalled.
11) Refill cooling system with coolant engine with engine oil and
A/T with specified A/T fluid (vehicle with A/T).
12) Connect negative cable at battery.
13) Verify that there is no fuel leakage, coolant leakage, oil leak-
age, A/T fluid leakage (vehicle with A/T) and exhaust gas
leakage at each connection. NOTE:
Before installing bearing cap, make sure to check con-
necting rod bolt diameter.
Refer to “Inspection” of “Connecting Rod” in this sec-
tion.
