Method by Calculation
- Install main bearings to cylinder block and lower cylinder block, and tighten lower cylinder block bolts to the specified torque. Refer to [ENGINE UNIT: DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY ] for the tightening procedure.
- Measure the inner diameter of main bearing with a bore gauge.
(Bearing oil clearance) = (Main bearing inner diameter) - (Crankshaft main journal diameter)
Standard:
No. 1, 3 and 5 journals: 0.028 - 0.042 mm (0.0011 - 0.0017 in)
No. 2 and 4 journals: 0.041 - 0.056 mm (0.0016 - 0.0022 in)
Limit: 0.1 mm (0.004 in)
- If the clearance exceeds the limit, select proper main bearing according to main bearing inner diameter and crankshaft main journal diameter to obtain the specified bearing oil clearance. Refer to [HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING ].
