timing belt side.
2. Before installing the bearing cap bolt, confirm that the
bolt’s underhead length is less than the limit value.
Replace the bolt if it exceeds the limit value.
Limit value: 71.1 mm
3. Apply engine oil on the bolt threads and bolt surface.
4. Following the tightening order, tighten the bearing cap
bolt at 25±2N•m.
5. Make paint marks on the bolt head.
6. Using the position of the mark painted on the bolt head
as reference, make paint marks on the seat surface at
the 90_to 100_positions in the tightening direction.
7. Following the tightening order, tighten the bolt by 90_
to 100_, and confirm that the paint marks made on the
bolt and seat surface match.
Caution
(1) If the tightening angle is less than 90_, the
connection performance may not be attained, so
take special care when tightening.

INSPECTION
1. CRANKSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE (PLASTIC GAUGE
METHOD)
The oil clearance can be measured easily by using the
“plastic gauge”.
Use the following steps to use the “plastic gauge”.
(1) Wipe off all oil from the crankshaft’s outer diameter
and bearing’s inner diameter.
(2) Assemble the crankshaft.
(3) Set a plastic gauge as long as the bearing width
on the journal shaft so that straightly aligned with
the shaft centre.
(4) Carefully install the beam bearing cap, and tighten
the bolt at the specified torque 25±2N•m+90_
to 100_.
(5) Remove the bolt, and carefully remove the beam
bearing cap.
(6) Measure the width of the crushed plastic gauge (at
the section crushed the most) with the scale printed
on the plastic gauge bag.
Standard value: 0.03 - 0.04 mm
Limit value: 0.1 mm
2. CYLINDER BLOCK
(1) Visually check for the presence of scratches, rusting,
or corrosion, and using flaw detection agent, etc.,
check for cracks. If any faults are found, repair or
replace the part.
(2) Using a straight edge and thickness gauge, measure
the flatness of the cylinder block’s upper surface.
Make sure that no gasket pieces, etc., are adhered
to the upper surface of the cylinder block when
measuring.
Standard value: 0.05 mm
Limit value: 0.1 mm
(3) Check for the presence of scratches or seizure on
the cylinder wall. If any faults are found, repair (over
size) or replace the part.
(4) Using a cylinder gauge, measure the inner diameter
and cylindricity of the cylinder. If greatly worn, repair
the cylinder to the over size, and replace the piston
ring.
Standard value: 85.0 mm
Cylindricity: 0.01 mm
Plastic gauge

ENGINE ELECTRICAL -Charging System16-6
This test determines whether the alternator output
current is normal.
(1) Before the test, always be sure to check the
following.
DAlternator installation
DBattery (Refer to GROUP 54 - Battery.)
NOTE
The battery should be slightly discharged.
The load needed by a fully-charged battery
is insufficient for an accurate test.
DAlternator drive belt tension
(Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.)
DFusible link
DAbnormal noise from the alternator while
the engine is running.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Disconnect the alternator output wire from the
alternator “B” terminal. Connect a DC test
ammeter with a range of 0 - 100 A in series
between the “B” terminal and the disconnected
output wire. (Connect the (+) lead of the
ammeter to the “B” terminal. Connect the ( - )
lead of the ammeter to the disconnected output
wire.)
Caution
Never use clips but tighten bolts and nuts
to connect the line. Otherwise loose
connections (e.g. using clips) will lead to
a serious accident because of high current.
NOTE
An inductive-type ammeter which enables
measurements to be taken without
disconnecting the alternator output wire should
be recommended.
(5) Connect a voltmeter with a range of 0 - 20 V
between the alternator “B” terminal and the
earth. (Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeter
to the “B” terminal, and then connect the ( - )
lead of the voltmeter to the earth.)
(6) Connect the negative battery cable.
(7) Connect a tachometer or the MUT-II.
(Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.)
(8) Leave the hood open.
(9) Check that the reading on the voltmeter is equal
to the battery voltage.
NOTE
If the voltage is 0 V, the cause is probably
an open circuit in the wire or fusible link between
the alternator “B” terminal and the battery (+)
terminal.(10)Turn the light switch on to turn on headlamps
and then start the engine.
(11) Immediately after setting the headlamps to high
beam and turning the heater blower switch to
the high revolution position, increase the engine
speed to 2,500 r/min and read the maximum
current output value displayed on the ammeter.
Limit: 70 % of normal current output
NOTE
DFor the nominal current output, refer to the
Alternator Specifications.
DBecause the current from the battery will
soon drop after the engine is started, the
above step should be carried out as quickly
as possible in order to obtain the maximum
current output value.
DThe current output value will depend on
the electrical load and the temperature of
the alternator body.
DIf the electrical load is small while testing,
the specified level of current may not be
output even though the alternator is normal.
In such cases, increase the electrical load
by leaving the headlamps turned on for
some time to discharge the battery or by
using the lighting system in another vehicle,
and then test again.
DThe specified level of current also may not
be output if the temperature of the alternator
body or the ambient temperature is too
high. In such cases, cool the alternator and
then test again.
(12)The reading on the ammeter should be above
the limit value. If the reading is below the limit
value and the alternator output wire is normal,
remove the alternator from the engine and
check the alternator.
(13)Run the engine at idle after the test.
(14)Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
(15)Remove the tachometer or the MUT-II.
(16)Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(17)Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter.
(18)Connect the alternator output wire to the
alternator “B” terminal.
(19)Connect the negative battery cable.
