- Measure the side clearance between connecting rod and crankshaft arm with a feeler gauge.
Standard: 0.20 - 0.35 mm (0.0079 - 0.138 in)
Limit: 0.50 mm (0.0197 in)
- If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace connecting rod, and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft also.
