HOW TO SELECT MAIN BEARING
When New Cylinder Block and Crankshaft are Used
1. “Main Bearing Selection Table” rows correspond to main bearing
housing grade on rear upper side between cylinder block banks.
2. “Main Bearing Selection Table” columns correspond to main
journal diameter grade on front side of crankshaft.
3. Select main bearing grade at the point where selected row and column meat in “Main Bearing Selection
Table”.
CAUTION:
Initial clearance for No. 1, 5 journal and No. 2, 3, 4 journal is different. Use two different selection
table for each part.
No. 1, 5 journal and No. 2, 3, 4 journal have the same signs but different measures. Do not con-
fuse.
4. Apply sign at crossing in above step 3 to “Main Bearing Grade Table”.
NOTE:
“Main Bearing Grade Table” applies to all journals.
Service parts is available as a set of both upper and lower.
When Cylinder Block and Crankshaft are Reused
1. Measure the cylinder block main bearing housing inner diameter and the crankshaft main journal diame-
ter. Refer to EM-270, "
MAIN BEARING HOUSING INNER DIAMETER" and EM-271, "CRANKSHAFT
MAIN JOURNAL DIAMETER" .
2. Correspond the measured dimension in “Cylinder block main bearing housing inner diameter” row of
“Main Bearing Selection Table”.
3. Correspond the measured dimension in “Crankshaft main journal diameter” column of “Main Bearing
Selection Table”.
4. Follow step 3 and later in “When New Cylinder Block and Crankshaft are Used”.

Main Bearing Grade Table (All Journals)
Unit: mm (in)
Use Undersize Bearing Usage Guide
When the specified main bearing oil clearance is not obtained with standard size main bearings, use
underside (US) bearing.
When using undersize (US) bearing, measure the main bearing inner diameter with bearing installed, and
grind main journal so that the main bearing oil clearance satisfies the standard.
CAUTION:
In grinding crankshaft main journal to use undersize bear-
ings, keep the fillet R [1.5 mm (0.059 in)].

CRANKSHAFT END PLAY
Measure the clearance between thrust bearings and crankshaft
arm when crankshaft is moved fully forward or backward with
dial indicator.
If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace thrust bearings,
and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crank-
shaft also.
CONNECTING ROD SIDE CLEARANCE
Measure the side clearance between connecting rod and crank-
shaft arm with feeler gauge.
If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace connecting rod,
and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crank-
shaft also.
PISTON TO PISTON PIN OIL CLEARANCE
Piston Pin Hole Diameter
Measure the inner diameter of piston pin hole with inside microme-
ter.
Piston Pin Outer Diameter
Measure the outer diameter of piston pin with micrometer.
Piston to Piston Pin Oil Clearance
(Piston to piston pin oil clearance) = (Piston pin hole diameter) – (Piston pin outer diameter)

When replacing piston and piston pin assembly, refer to EM-260, "HOW TO SELECT PISTON" .
NOTE:
Piston is available together with piston pin as assembly.
Piston pin (piston pin hole) grade is provided only for the parts installed at the plant. For service parts,
no piston pin grades can be selected. (Only “0” grade is available.)
PISTON RING SIDE CLEARANCE
Measure the side clearance of piston ring and piston ring groove
with feeler gauge.
If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace piston ring, and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit,
replace piston also.
PISTON RING END GAP
Make sure that the cylinder bore inner diameter is within the
specification. Refer to EM-270, "
Cylinder Bore Inner Diameter" .
Lubricate with new engine oil to piston and piston ring, and then
insert piston ring until middle of cylinder with piston, and mea-
sure the piston ring end gap with feeler gauge.
If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace piston ring, and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit,

CONNECTING ROD BIG END DIAMETER
Install connecting rod bearing cap without installing connecting
rod bearing, and tightening connecting rod bolts to the specified
torque. Refer to EM-254, "

dure.
Measure the inner diameter of connecting rod big end with
inside micrometer.
If out of the standard, replace connecting rod assembly.
