Con-rod Bearing Clearance, Check (Determine Bearing Clearance with Micrometer and Inside Micrometer) Notice: Con-rod and crankshaft are removed. The fastening bolts may be used once again to check the con-rod bearing play.
Install, Connect Install con-rod bearing cap with con-rod bearing shell to con-rod - Tightening torque 35 Nm / 26 lbf. ft. + 45 ° + 15 ° .
Measure The average con-rod bearing diameter is measured at points I, II, and III using an internal micrometer and then calculated.
Formula for calculating the average con-rod bearing diameter: |
I + II + III |
|
3 |
Example: |
|
I |
42.738 mm |
|
II |
42.732 mm |
|
III |
+ 42.741 mm |
|
|
128.211 mm |
÷ 3 = 42.737 mm |
The average con-rod bearing diameter is 42.737 mm. |
