• When the bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the

specified torque with main bearings installed, the tip end of the

bearing must protrude. Refer to 

EM-89, "Disassembly and Assem-

bly"

 for the tightening procedure.

• If standard is not met, replace main bearings.

CRUSH HEIGHT OF CONNECTING ROD BEARING

• When connecting rod bearing cap is removed after being tightened

to the specified torque with the connecting rod bearings installed,

the tip end of the bearing must protrude. Refer to 

EM-89, "Disas-

sembly and Assembly"

 for tightening procedure.

• If standard is not met, replace connecting rod bearings.

MAIN BEARING CAP BOLT DIAMETER

• Check for bolts (M9 and M12) installed from lower side using the

following procedure.

NOTE:

• Side bolt (M10) is outside the target.

• Figure shows M12 bolt.

• Measure bolt diameter 

″d1″ from tip of the bolt to dimension "a".

• Measure bolt diameter 

″d2″ from the dimension between tip of the

bolt and dimension 

″b″ as base station to dimension ″c″.

NOTE:

 If a narrower part in the threads is determined by visual check,

measure 

″d2″ at that point.

• Calculate the difference between 

″d1″ and ″d2″.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING

How to Select Piston and Bearing

INFOID:0000000006179421

DESCRIPTION

 *For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between a piston pin and a connecting rod.

(Only 0 grade is available.) The information at the shipment from the plant is described as a reference. 

• The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.

This grade cannot apply to reused parts. 

• For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimension accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the

measurement with the values of each selection table.

• For details of the measurement method of each part, the reuse standards, and the selection method of the

selective fitting parts, follow the applicable procedure.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON

Piston Selective Fitting When New Cylinder Block is Used:

• Check the cylinder bore grade on the bottom face of the cylinder

block, and select the piston of the same grade.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING

When Cylinder Block is Reused

1. Measure cylinder block bore diameter.
2. Determine the bore grade by comparing the measurement with the values under the “Cylinder bore diam-

eter” of the piston selection table.  

Piston Selection Table

Unit: mm (in)

NOTE:

• The piston is available together with piston pin as an assembly. 

• The piston pin (piston pin bore) grade is provided only for the parts installed at the plant. For service parts,

no grades can be selected (only 0 grade is available).

HOW TO SELECT CONNECTING ROD BEARING

When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used

1. Apply the big end inside diameter grade stamped on the con-

necting rod side face to the row in the “Connecting Rod Bearing

Selection Table”.

2. Apply the pin diameter grade stamped on the crankshaft front

side to the column in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection

Table”.

3. Read the symbol at the cross point of the selected row and col-

umn in the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table".

4. Apply the symbol obtained to the "Connecting Rod Bearing

Grade Table" to select.

When Crankshaft and Connecting Rod are Reused

1. Measure dimensions of the big end inside diameter of the connecting rod and diameter of the crankshaft

pin individually.

2. Apply the measured dimension to the “Connecting Rod Bearing Selection Table”.
3. The following steps are the same as in “When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used”.
