CYLINDER BLOCK
Check each cylinder block I.D. code letter [1] in the
position shown, and record it.
• The cylinder block I.D. code letters are for the No.1
and the subsequent number journals when viewed
from the left side.
Cylinder block I.D.: 54 mm (2.1 in)
Select the correct bearing by referring to the crankshaft
main journal code number and the cylinder block I.D.
code letter.
Crankshaft main bearing selection table:
Selection table:
The main bearings are available in the seven I.D. colors
(Black, Brown, Green, Yellow, Pink, Red and White in
this order) [1] at intervals of 0.003 mm (0.0001 in) in
tolerance.
Select the bearings so that the oil clearance is 0.018 –
0.036 mm (0.0007 – 0.0014 in).
Align the projection [2] on the bearing with the cutout in
the cylinder block and in the crankcase.
Install the bearing with care not to damage the sliding
surface.
Check the crankshaft main bearing oil clearance after
installing the selected bearing (page 15-23).
