Published : Mar 2, 2001

 

The main bearing caps or lower crankcase must be in place and tightened to the specified torque; however, the 
bearing shells should not be installed. 

 

Carry out the measurements in different directions and at different heights to determine if there is any out-of-

roundness or tapering.  

 

If the measurement is out of the specified range, hone out the cylinder block or install a new block.
