Maximum oil clearance: 0.025 mm (0.0010 inch)
(f) If the oil clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the bushing. If necessary, replace the connecting rod and piston pin as a set.





46. INSPECT CONNECTING ROD
(a) Using a rod aligner and feeler gauge, check the connecting rod alignment.
(1) Check for bend.
Maximum bend: 0.03 mm (0.0012 inch) per 100 mm (3.94 inch)
If the bend is greater than the maximum, replace the connecting rod sub-assembly.





(2) Check for twist.
Maximum twist: 0.15 mm (0.0059 inch) per 100 mm (3.94 inch)
If the twist is greater than the maximum, replace the connecting rod sub-assembly.





47. INSPECT CONNECTING ROD BOLT
(a) Using vernier calipers, measure the tension portion diameter of the bolt.
Standard diameter: 7.2 to 7.3 mm (0.283 to 0.287 inch)
Minimum diameter: 7.0 mm (0.276 inch)
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the bolt.





48. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT
(a) Inspect for circle runout.
(1) Place the crankshaft on V-blocks.
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout at the center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.03 mm (0.0012 inch)
If the circle runout is greater than the maximum, replace the crankshaft.





(b) Inspect the main journals.
(1) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of each main journal.
