Undersize Bearings Usage Guide

• When the specified connecting rod bearing oil clearance is not obtained with standard size connecting rod

bearings, use undersize (US) bearings.

• When using undersize (US) bearing, measure the connecting rod bearing inner diameter with bearing

installed, and grind the crankshaft pin so that the connecting rod bearing oil clearance satisfies the standard. 

CAUTION:

In grinding crankshaft pin to use undersize bearings, keep the
fillet R [1.5 - 1.7 mm (0.059 - 0.067 in)] (A).

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING

1.

“Main Bearing Selection Table” rows correspond to main bearing
housing grade on rear left side of cylinder block (L).

• If there is a correction stamp mark on cylinder block, use it as

a correct reference.

2.

Apply main journal diameter grade stamped on crankshaft front
side   to column in the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.

3.

Read the symbol at the cross point of selected row and column in the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.

CAUTION:

There are two main bearing selection tables. One is for No. 1, 4 and 5 journals and the other is for
No. 2 and 3 journals.   Make certain to use the appropriate table. This is due to differences in the
specified clearances. 

4.

Apply the symbol obtained to the “Main Bearing Grade Table” to select main bearing.
NOTE:
Service part is available as a set of both upper and lower.

When Cylinder Block and Crankshaft are Reused

1.

Measure the dimensions of the cylinder block main bearing housing inner diameter and crankshaft main
journal diameter individually. Refer to 

EM-219, "Inspection After Disassembly"

 and 

EM-219, "Inspection

After Disassembly"

.

2.

Apply the measured dimension to the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.

3.

Read the symbol at the cross point of selected row and column in the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.

CAUTION:

There are two main bearing selection tables. One is for No. 1, 4 and 5 journals and the other is for
No. 2 and 3 journals.   Make certain to use the appropriate table. This is due to differences in the
specified clearances. 

4.
