Rod Bearings

  1. Mark rod caps in relation to rod for reassembly reference. Measure rod bearing journal out-of-round, taper and oil clearance. If not within specification, install new rod bearings. See CRANKSHAFT, MAIN & CONNECTING ROD BEARINGS table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS.
  2. Undersize bearings may be used in combination with standard to produce correct clearance. If not within specification after installing new bearings, replace crankshaft. DO NOT machine crankshaft. Ensure rod side play is .007-.025" (.17-.63 mm).
NOTE: Some VIN C engines may contain both standard and .003" (.08 mm) oversize connecting rod bearings, identified by O.S. stamped on bearing cap lower end.
CAUTION: Crankshaft is rolled fillet type. DO NOT machine crankshaft.
