• Connecting rod alignment:
Mount connecting rod on aligner to check it for bow and
twist. If limit is exceeded, replace it.
Connecting rod alignment
Limit on bow : 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
Limit on twist : 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
• Connecting rod bolt diameter (Plastic deformation tightening
bolt)
Measure connecting rod (1) bolt (2) for diameter "A" on 32
mm (1.25 in.) from bolt mounting surface and diameter "B"
on 40 mm (1.57 in.) from bolt mounting surface by using a
micrometer (3).
Calculate difference in diameters ("A" – "B"). If it exceeds
limit, replace connecting rod.

"a" : 32 mm (1.25 in.)
"b" : 40 mm (1.57 in.)
Connecting rod bolt diameter difference
Limit ("A" – "B") : 0.1 mm (0.004 in.)
Crank Pin and Connecting Rod Bearings
• Inspect crank pin for uneven wear or damage. Measure
crank pin for out-of-round or taper with a micrometer. If crank
pin is damaged or out-of-round or taper is out of limit,
replace crankshaft or regrind crank pin to undersize and use
undersize bearing.
