Thrust Clearance

CHECKING CONNECTING ROD THRUST CLEARANCE 

Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance while moving the connecting rod back and forth.
-

Standard thrust clearance: 0.150 - 0.330 mm (0.0059 - 0.0130 inch) 

-

If the thrust clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the connecting rod assembly. If necessary, replace the crankshaft.
