Part 4
CRANKSHAFT AND CRANKSHAFT BEARING1) Clean the crankshaft completely, and check it for cracks using liquid penetrant tester.
2) Using a dial gauge, check the crankshaft bend. If it exceeds the limit, grind to correct the crankshaft journal or replace the crankshaft.
NOTE:
- Measurement should be performed at a temperature of 20°C (68°F).
- If a suitable V-block is not available, using just the #1 and #5 crankshaft bearings on cylinder block, position the crankshaft on cylinder block. Then, measure the crankshaft bend using a dial gauge.
- When grinding to correct the crankshaft journal, refer to step 3).
Crankshaft bend:
Limit
0.035 mm (0.0014 in)
3) Using a micrometer, check the outer diameter of crankshaft pin, outer diameter of journal, cylindricality, and out-of-roundness. If it is not within the standard, replace the connecting rod bearing or crankshaft bearing, and grind to correct the crankshaft pin or journal or replace the crankshaft as required.
NOTE:
- Measurement should be performed at a temperature of 20°C (68°F).
- Select the suitable size connecting rod bearing or crankshaft bearing when replacing the connecting rod bearing or crankshaft bearing.

6) Check the oil clearance on each crankshaft bearing using plastigauge.
NOTE:
Measurement should be performed at a temperature of 20°C (68°F).
(1) Remove the liquid gasket from cylinder block.
(2) Clean each crankshaft bearing and crankshaft journal.
(3) Set each crankshaft bearing to the cylinder block.
CAUTION:
- Place a wood board wrapped with a waste cloth to prevent the knock pin damage and to stabilize the cylinder block before work.
- Be careful not to scratch the mating surface of cylinder block during work.
(4) Set the crankshaft to the cylinder block LH.
(5) Place a plastigauge across the crankshaft journals and set the cylinder block RH to the cylinder block LH.
(6) Apply a coat of engine oil to the washers and cylinder block mounting bolt threads.
NOTE:
To prevent mixture of engine oil into the water jacket, do not apply a large amount.
(7) Install the cylinder head bolt at the locations shown in the figure.
NOTE:
This procedure is required to tighten the cylinder block mounting bolts with specified angle using ST.
(8) Tighten all mounting bolts with a torque of 35 Nm (3.6 kgf-m, 25.8 ft-lb) in numerical order as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When tightening the mounting bolts with specified torque, hold the cylinder block LH while not holding the cylinder block RH to ensure the joint accuracy of the cylinder block.
(9) Loosen all mounting bolts by 180° in numerical order as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When loosening the mounting bolts, hold the cylinder block LH while not holding the cylinder block RH to ensure the joint accuracy of the cylinder block.
(10) Tighten all mounting bolts with a torque of 35 Nm (3.6 kgf-m, 25.8 ft-lb) in numerical order as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When tightening the mounting bolts with specified torque, hold the cylinder block LH while not holding the cylinder block RH to ensure the joint accuracy of the cylinder block.
(11) Loosen the mounting bolts (4 places) by 180° in numerical order as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When loosening the mounting bolts, hold the cylinder block LH while not holding the cylinder block RH to ensure the joint accuracy of the cylinder block.
(12) Tighten the mounting bolts (4 places) with a torque of 17 Nm (1.7 kgf-m, 12.5 ft-lb) in numerical order as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When tightening the mounting bolts with specified torque, hold the cylinder block LH while not holding the cylinder block RH to ensure the joint accuracy of the cylinder block.
(13) Using ST, tighten the mounting bolts (4 places) with specified angle in numerical order as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When tightening the mounting bolts with specified angle, hold the cylinder block LH while not holding the cylinder block RH to ensure the joint accuracy of the cylinder block.
