Method by Calculation
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and cap, and tighten connecting rod bolts to the specified torque. Refer to [ENGINE UNIT: DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY ] for the tightening procedure.
- Measure the inner diameter of connecting rod bearing with inside micrometer.
(Bearing oil clearance) = (Connecting rod bearing inner diameter) - (Crankshaft pin journal diameter)
Standard: 0.034 - 0.059 mm (0.0013 - 0.0023 in) (actual clearance)
Limit: 0.070 mm (0.0028 in)
- If the calculated value exceeds the limit, select proper connecting rod bearing according to connecting rod big end diameter and crankshaft pin journal diameter to obtain the specified bearing oil clearance. Refer to [HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING ].
