CRANKSHAFT
5-90
7. Calculate:
• Crankshaft journal-to-crankshaft journal
bearing clearance
Out of specification → Replace the crank-
shaft and crankshaft journal bearings as a
set.
NOTE:
Calculate the clearance by subtracting the
crankshaft journal diameter from the crankshaft
journal bearing inside diameter.

INSTALLING THE CONNECTING RODS
1. Lubricate:
• Bolt threads
• Nut seats
(with the recommended lubricant)
2. Lubricate:
• Crankshaft pins
• Big end bearings
• Connecting rod inner surface
(with the recommended lubricant)
3. Install:
• Big end bearings
• Connecting rods
• Connecting rod caps
(onto the crankshaft pins)
NOTE:
• Align the projections “a” on the big end bear-
ings with the notches “b” in the connecting rods
and connecting rod caps.
• Be sure to reinstall each big end bearing in its
original place.
• Make sure the projections “c” on the connect-
ing rods face towards the left side of the crank-
