Connecting Rod Bearing Clearance1) 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 bearing cap bolts (3),
tighten bearing cap bolts (3) gradually as follows.
a) Tighten all bearing cap bolts to 15 N ⋅m (1.5 kgf-
m, 11.0 lb-ft)
b) Retighten them to 45°
c) Repeat Step b) once again.

turning through 45 ° twice 5) Remove cap and using a scale (1) on gauging
plastic envelope (2), measure gauging plastic (2)
width at the widest point (clearance).
If clearance exceed its limit, use a new standard size
bearing referring to “Selection of Connecting Rod
Bearings: ”.
After selecting new bearing, recheck clearance.
Connecting rod bearing clearance
Standard: 0.029 – 0.047 mm (0.0011 – 0.0018 in.)
Limit: 0.065 mm (0.0026 in.)
6) If clearance can not be brought to its limit even by using a new standard size bearing, use next thicker
bearing and recheck clearance or regrind crank pin
to undersize and use 0.25 mm undersize bearing.
Selection of Connecting Rod Bearings
NOTE
• If bearing is in malcondition, or bearing clearance is out of specification, select a
new standard bearing according to the
following procedure and install it.
• When replacing crankshaft or connecting rod and its bearing due to any reason,
select new standard bearings to be
installed by referring to numbers stamped
on connecting rod and its cap and/or
alphabets stamped on crank web of No.3
cylinder.

1) Check stamped numbers on connecting rod and its cap as shown.
Three kinds of numbers (“1”, “2” and “3”) represent
the following connecting rod big end inside
diameters.
For example, stamped number “1” indicates that
corresponding connecting rod big end inside
diameter is 45.000 – 45.006 mm (1.7717 – 1.7718
in.).

2) Next, check crankshaft pin diameter. On crank web No.3, four alphabets are stamped as shown in the
figure.
Three kinds of alphabet (“A”, “B” and “C”) represent
the following crankshaft pin diameter respectively.
For example, stamped “A” indicates that
corresponding crankshaft pin diameter is 41.994 –
42.000 mm (1.6533 – 1.6534 in.).

3) There are five kinds of standard bearings differing in thickness. To distinguish them, they are painted in
the following colors at the position as indicated in the
figure.
Each color indicated the following thickness at the
center of bearing.

4) From number stamped on connecting rod and its cap and alphabets stamped on crank web No.3,
determine new standard bearing to be installed to
connecting rod big end inside, by referring to the
table.
For example, if number stamped on connecting rod
and its cap is “1” and alphabet stamped on crank
web No.3 is “B”, install a new standard bearing
painted in “Black” to its connecting rod big end
inside.

Main Bearings InspectionS7RS0B1406038
General Information
• Service main bearings are available in standard size and 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.) undersize, and each of them
has 5 kinds of bearings differing in tolerance.
• Upper half of bearing (1) has oil groove (2) as shown in figure.
Install this half with o il groove to cylinder block.
• Lower half of bearing does not have an oil groove.
Visual Inspection
Check bearings for pitting, scratches, wear or damage.
If any malcondition is foun d, replace both upper and
lower halves. Never replace either half without replacing
the other half.
Main Bearing Clearance
NOTE
Do not rotate crankshaft while gauging
plastic is installed.

Check clearance by using ga uging plastic according to
the following procedure.
1) Remove bearing caps.
2) Clean bearings and main journals.
3) Place a piece of gauging plastic (1) the full width of bearing (parallel to crankshaft) on journal, avoiding
oil hole. 4) Tighten main bearing cap No.1 bolts (a) and main
bearing cap No.2 bolts (b) gradually as follows.
a) Tighten bolts (“1” through “10”) to 30 N ⋅m (3.0
kgf-m, 22.0 lb-ft) according to numerical order in
the figure.
b) In the same manner as in Step a), tighten them to 50 N ⋅m (5.0 kgf-m, 36.5 lb-ft).
c) In the same manner as in Step a), retighten them to 60 °.
d) Tighten bolts (“11” through “18”) to 25 N ⋅m (2.5
kgf-m, 18.0 lb-ft) according to numerical order in
the figure.
Tightening torque
Main bearing cap No.1 bolt (a): 30 Nm (3.0
kgf-m, 22.0 lb-ft), 50 Nm (5.0 kgf-m, 36.5 lb-ft)
and then retighten by turning through 60°
Main bearing cap No.2 bolt (b): 25 N·m (2.5
kgf-m, 18.0 lb-ft)
5) Remove bearing caps and using scale (1) on gauging plastic envelop (2), measure gauging plastic
width at its widest point. If clearance exceeds its
limit, replace bearing. Always replace both upper
and lower inserts as a unit.
A new standard bearing may produce proper
clearance. If not, it will be necessary to regrind
crankshaft journal for use of 0.25 mm undersize
bearing.
After selecting new bearing, recheck clearance.
Main bearing clearance
Standard: 0.021 – 0.041 mm (0.0008 – 0.0016 in.)
