NOTE: Do not apply engine oil to the bearing and its contact surface.
HINT: A number is marked on each main bearing cap to indicate the installation position.

9. INSTALL CRANKSHAFT THRUST WASHER SET






(a) Install the 2 thrust washers under the No. 2 journal position of the cylinder block with the oil grooves facing outward.






(b) Install the 2 thrust washers on the No. 2 bearing cap with the grooves facing outward.
10. INSTALL CRANKSHAFT
(a) Apply engine oil to the upper bearing and install the crankshaft on the cylinder block.






(b) Examine the front marks and numbers and install the bearing caps on the cylinder block.
(c) Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads of the bearing cap bolts.
(d) Temporarily install the 8 main bearing cap bolts to the inside positions.






(e) Install the main bearing cap by hand until clearance between the cylinder block and the bearing cap becomes 6 mm (0.23 in.) or less.






(f) Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the bearing cap to ensure a proper fit.
(g) Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads of the main bearing cap bolts.






(h) Using several steps, install and tighten the 16 main bearing cap bolts uniformly in the sequence shown in the illustration.
