Crankshaft and Piston Removal

Crankpin and Bearing Clearance Inspection (with micrometer)

1. Using a micrometer, measure the crankpin diameter.

Crankpin diameter:

Standard (New):

45.930 – 45.945 mm

(1.8083 – 1.8089 in.)

Service limit:

45.926 mm (1.8081 in.)

1. Install the bearing cap and tighten it to the two steps specified torque.

1st step torque:

25 Nm (2.5 kgf/m, 18 lbf/ft)

2nd step:

100°

1. Measure the crankpin bearing inside diameter.

1. If the clearance between the measured bearing inside diameter and the crankpin exceeds the specified limit, the bearing and/or the crankshaft must be replaced.

Crankpin and bearing clearance:

Standard (New):

0.025 – 0.058 mm

(0.0010 – 0.0023 in.)

Service limit:

0.1 mm (0.004 in.)

NOTE: Measure crankshaft thrust play, before removing crankshaft bearing cap.

1. Remove the crankshaft pulley and the crankshaft timing pulley.

1. Remove the oil pan upper and lower.

1. Remove the oil pump.

1. Remove the oil strainer and the baffle plate.
