Installation

NOTE

• All parts to be installed must be perfectly 

clean.

• Be sure to apply oil crankshaft journals, 

main bearings, thrust bearings, crank pins, 
connecting rod bearings, pistons, piston 
rings and cylinder bores.

• Main bearings, crankcase (bearings caps), 

connecting rods, connecting rod bearings, 
connecting rod bearing caps, pistons and 
piston rings are in combination sets. Do 
not disturb combination and try to see that 
each part goes back to where it came from, 
when installing.

• Clean mating surface of cylinder block and 

crankcase, remove oil, old sealant and 
dust from mating surface.

 

1) Fit main bearings (4) to cylinder block (1).

One of two halves of main bearing, has oil groove 
(3). Install this half with oil groove to cylinder block, 
and another half without oil groove to crankcase.

Crankshaft Inspection

S6JB0B1406045

Crankshaft Runout
Using a dial gauge, measure runout at center journal. 
Rotate crankshaft slowly. If runout exceeds its limit, 
replace crankshaft.

Crankshaft runout
Limit: 0.06 mm (0.0023 in.)

Crankshaft Thrust Play
Measure this play with crankshaft set in cylinder block in 
the normal manner, that is, with thrust bearing, lower 
crankcase, main bearings and main bearing caps 
installed. Refer to “Main Bearings, Crankshaft and 
Cylinder Block Removal and Installation”.
Use a dial gauge to read displacement in axial (thrust) 
direction of crankshaft.
If its limit is exceeded, replace thrust bearing with new 
standard one or oversize one to obtain standard thrust 
play.

Crankshaft thrust play
Standard: 0.10 – 0.35 mm (0.0040 – 0.0137 in.)
Limit: 0.38 mm (0.0150 in.)

Thickness of crankshaft thrust bearing
Standard: 2.425 – 2.475 mm (0.0955 – 0.0974 in.)
Oversize (0.125 mm): 2.488 – 2.538 mm (0.0980 – 
0.0999 in.)

Out-of-Round and Taper (Uneven Wear) of Journals
An unevenly worn crankshaft journal shows up as a 
difference in diameter at a cross section or along its 
length (or both). This difference, if any, is determined by 
taking micrometer readings. If any one of journals is 
badly damaged or if amount of uneven wear in the sense 
explained above exceeds its limit, regrind or replace 
crankshaft.

Crank journal out-of-round (a – b) and taper (c – d)
Limit: 0.01 mm (0.0004 in.)
