B—Bearing Inserts
7. Apply clean engine oil to bearing inserts (B) and
crankshaft rod journals (A).
IMPORTANT: On PRECISION JOINT rods, make sure
bearings are properly centered in the
cap and rod. Make sure cap is properly
aligned on rod, with interlocking
surfaces sealing tightly and edges
aligned. DO NOT reverse cap on rod.
Match pads on side of rod and cap.
When installing caps, make sure
stamped numbers on rod and cap are
positioned on the same side.
NEVER use connecting rod cap screws
more than once for final engine
assembly. Once rod cap screws have
been tightened to final torque-turn
specifications, they cannot be reused
for final assembly.
