pitting, burn or flaws. If any, replace them with a
specified set of bearings.
2) Place the plastigauge axially along the crank pin,
avoiding the oil hole, as shown.

3) Tighten the conrod cap bolts to the specified torque,
in two stages. Refer to "Conrod Removal and
Installation (Page 1D-79)".
NOTE
• When installing the conrod cap to the
crank pin, make sure that I.D code "A" on
the conrod faces towards the intake side.
• Never rotate the crankshaft or conrod
when a piece of plastigauge is installed.
Tightening torque
Conrod cap bolt: 21 N⋅m (2.1 kgf-m, 15.0 lbf-ft)
then turn in 1/4 (90°) turn
4) Remove the conrod caps and measure the width of
the compressed plastigauge using the envelope
scale. This measurement should be taken at the
widest part of the compressed plastigauge.
If the oil clearance exceeds the service limit, select
the specified bearings from the bearing selection
table.
