2. Checking oil clearance of main bearing
1) Install the upper and lower halves of the
bearing and the cap to the crankcase, and
tighten the cap nuts to the specified torque.
Measure the inside diameter of the bearing,
as shown in the illustration.
2) Measure the diameter of the journal of the
crankshaft, as shown in the illustration, and
subtract the diameter of the journal from the
inside diameter of the bearing (Step (1)). The
difference is the oil clearance of the main
bearing.
Unit: mm [in.]
3) If the oil clearance exceeds the repair limit,
replace the bearing and recheck the oil
clearance.
4) If the oil clearance still exceeds the repair
limit, use 0.25 mm [0.0098 in.], 0.50 mm
[0.0197 in.] or 0.75 mm [0.0295 in.] undersize
bearings. When using undersize bearings,
