Toyota 22R-E - Push out Piston and Connecting Rod Assembly; Measure Crankshaft Thrust Clearance

21. MEASURE CRANKSHAFT THRUST CLEARANCE
Using a dial gauge, measure the crankshaft thrust
clearance while prying the crankshaft back and forth
with a screwdriver.
Standard clearance: 0.02 – 0.22 mm
(0.0008 – 0.0087 in.)
Maximum clearance: 0.3 mm (0.012 in.)
If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the
thrust washers as a set and/or crankshaft.
Thrust washer thickness:
Standard
2.690 – 2.740 mm (0.1059 – 0.1079 in.)
0/S 1.25
2.753 – 2.803 mm (0.1084 – 0.1104 in.)
4/S 2.50
2.815 – 2.865 mm (0.1108 – 0.1128 in.)
