Measuring Connecting Rod Bearing Side Clearance

  1. Insert a feeler gage between the connecting rod caps and measure the connecting rod side clearance. The proper connecting rod side clearance specification is 0.15-0.44 mm (0.006-0.017 in).
  2. Connecting rod side clearances may also be measured with a dial indicator set.
