Selection table:
Connecting rod bearing center thickness: 1.5 mm (0.06 in)
The connecting rod bearings are available in blue, black,
brown, green, yellow, pink and red of the size identification
color in this order in increments of 0.003 mm (0.0001 in).
4) Note that the oil clearance is set taking the enlarged
amount of the housing caused by crash into consideration.
The bearings are selected so that the oil clearance is 0.032
– 0.066 mm (0.0013 – 0.0026 in).
5) Check the oil clearance after installing the selected bearing
6) Align the projection on the bearing with the cutout in the
connecting rod or cap, and install with care not to damage
the sliding surface.
• Do not determine the bearing simply by referring to the
selection table, but check the oil clearance.
• If the selection table shows two identification colors, use
a pair of the bearing of each color for the upper and lower
bearings.
