Tape

Wind non-adhesive tape (seal tape, etc.) 
around the notch of the oil passage of the oil 
feeder control valve before installing the 
O-ring to prevent damage. Damage to the 
O-ring causes oil leakage.

1. Apply a small amount of engine oil to the O-ring of 

the oil feeder control valve.

2. Install the oil feeder control valve on the cylinder 

head.

3. Tighten the oil feeder control valve to the specified 

torque of 10

3. Put straightly the Plastigage having the length of 

the bearing width on the journal axis, centring the 
axis.

4. Carefully install the bearing cap. Tighten the bolt 

as instructed in >>B<< Bolt Installation Point.

5. Remove the bolt and the bearing cap carefully.

Plastigage

AC

6. Measure the Plastigage whose width is most 

compressed using the scale printed on the 
Plastigage bag. When the measured value 
deviates from the standard one, replace the 
bearing.

Standard value: 0 

− 0.032 mm

CAUTION

When the bearing is used again, be careful not to 
reverse the cylinder head side and the camshaft 
side at the installation.
