CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Calculation
Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and cap, and
tighten connecting rod bolts to the specified torque. Refer to
EM-254, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.
Measure the inner diameter of connecting rod bearing with
inside micrometer.
(Bearing oil clearance) = (Connecting rod bearing inner diameter) –
(Crankshaft pin journal diameter)
If the calculated value exceeds the limit, select proper connecting rod bearing according to connecting rod
big end diameter and crankshaft pin journal diameter to obtain the specified bearing oil clearance. Refer
to EM-261, "
HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage
Remove oil and dust on crankshaft pin journal and the surfaces of each bearing completely.
Cut plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil
holes.
Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and cap, and tighten connecting rod bolts to the speci-
fied torque. Refer to EM-254, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft.
Remove connecting rod bearing cap and bearing, and using
scale on plastigage bag, measure the plastigage width.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the limit is
same as that described in the “Method by Calculation”.Standard : 0.020 - 0.045 mm (0.0008 - 0.0018 in)
(actual clearance)
Limit : 0.055 mm (0.0022 in)

MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Calculation
Install main bearings to cylinder block and main bearing caps,
and tighten main bearing cap bolts with main bearing to the
specified torque. Refer to EM-254, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tighten-
ing procedure.
Measure the inner diameter of main bearing with bore gauge.
(Bearing clearance) = (Main bearing inner diameter) – (Crankshaft main journal diameter)
If the calculated value exceeds the limit, select proper main bearing according to main bearing inner diam-
eter and crankshaft main journal diameter to obtain the specified bearing oil clearance. Refer to EM-262,
"HOW TO SELECT MAIN BEARING" .
Method of Using Plastigage
Remove oil and dust on crankshaft main journal and the surfaces of each bearing completely.
Cut plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil
holes.
Install main bearings to cylinder block and main bearing caps, and tighten main bearing bolts with main
bearing to the specified torque. Refer to EM-254, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft.
Remove main bearing caps and bearings, and using scale on
plastigage bag, measure the plastigage width.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the limit is
same as that described in the “Method by Calculation”.

CRUSH HEIGHT OF MAIN BEARING
When main bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the
specified torque with main bearings installed, the tip end of bear-
ing must protrude. Refer to EM-254, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tight-
ening procedure.
If the standard is not met, 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-254,
"ASSEMBLY" for the tightening procedure.
If the standard is not met, replace connecting rod bearings.
DRIVE PLATE
Check drive plate and signal plate for deformation or cracks.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble drive plate.
Do not place drive plate with signal plate facing down.
When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or
scratch it.

Removal and InstallationNBS005RL
CAUTION:
Be sure to use genuine exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed for heat
resistance, corrosion resistance, and shape.
Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system will be hot
just after engine stops.
Be careful not to cut your hand on the heat insulator edge.
REMOVAL
Disconnect each joint and mounting using power tool.
Remove heated oxygen sensor 2 as follows:
–Using heated oxygen sensor wrench (SST), removal heated
oxygen sensor 2.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage heated oxygen sensor 2.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
When installing, heated oxygen sensor 2 is identified by the color of the connector.
Check for deformation of the grommets (18 and 20 of Components).
Insert the collar (17 of Components) vertically.
Install the collar (5 of Components) with its lower surface horizontal.
Temporarily tighten nuts and bolts when installing exhaust pipe assembly. Tighten them to the specified
torque when connecting the vehicle rear to the vehicle front.
CAUTION:
Always replace exhaust tube gaskets with new ones when reassembling.
Discard any heated oxygen sensor which has been dropped onto a hard surface such as a con-
crete floor; use a new one.
Before installing a new heated oxygen sensor, clean exhaust system threads using the heated
oxygen sensor thread cleaner [commercial service tool: J-43897-18 or J-43897-12], and apply the
anti-seize lubricant (commercial service tool).
Do not over torque heated oxygen sensor. Doing so may cause damage to heated oxygen sensor,
resulting in the “MIL” coming on.
If heat insulator is badly deformed, repair or replace it. If deposits such as mud pile up on the heat
insulator, remove them.
When installing heat insulator avoid large gaps or interference between heat insulator and each
exhaust pipe.
Remove deposits from the sealing surface of each connection. Connect them securely to avoid
gases leakage.
Temporarily tighten mounting nuts on the exhaust manifold side and mounting bolts on the vehi-
cle side. Check each part for unusual interference, and then tighten them to the specified torque.
When installing each mounting rubber, avoid twisting or unusual extension in up/down and right/
left directions.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Make sure clearance between tail tube and rear bumper is even.
