_____________________________________
[1]: When checking radial clearance, lubricate the contact surtace of the nut or bolt before tightening. When checking connecting rod radial clearance, tighten the nut or bolt only to 30 Nm (22 ft lb) and not the additional 1/4 turn.
[2]: If connecting rod radial clearance is excessive, the crankshaft connecting rod journals should be checked. If the crankshaft journal diameters are within specifications, recheck radial clearance using new bearing shells.
