Overhaul of the connecting rods
Make the following dimensional checks on the connecting rods:
- assembly clearance with gudgeon pin at time of fitting (Sect. C 1.1, Cylinder/Piston).
In case of excessive wear, renew the connecting rod. The small end bushing must be in good condition and firmly driven into its
seat. Check for parallelism error measured at
100 mm from the connecting rod longitudinal axis:
the value must be H - h less than 0.02 mm; otherwise, renew the connecting rod.
The diameter of the big-end must be within the specified tolerance limits (Sect. C 1.1, Cylinder/Piston).
It is preferable to use crankshafts and connecting rods of the same size class.
