Clearance 0.100 - 0.245 mm

Note: Compare your thrust clearance figure to the service manual
Note: The same thickness of thrust washers should be installed on both sides of the thrust bearing.
Note: If the clearance is out of standard, adjust the axial clearance of crank shaft bearing by
replacing the thrust washers.

• Insert the new connecting rod bearing shells into the connecting rod and connecting rod bearing shells into the
connecting rod and tighten the 12-sided stretch bolts (11).
Installation Notice
Tightening Torque 55 N·m (26 lb-ft) + 90°

• Measure inner diameter of connecting rod bearing. (Fig 16)

• Measure connecting rod bearing journal diameter (k).
