• The upper crankcase is marked with a
size mark (“1”
or “2”) to be used as a
reference in selecting cylinder liners.
• The first to forth size marks from the
front of the engine correspond to the
No. 1 to No. 4 cylinders.
9.2 Main bearing
• The upper main bearings have oil
holes through which engine oil is sup-
plied to the crankshaft journals.
• An oil groove is provided in the No. 1
lower bearing.
9.3 Thrust plates
• Two upper and lower thrust plate pairs
are installed on both sides of the up-
per and lower main bearings at the
rearmost journal of the crankshaft.
• Select the thrust plates of a thickness
that can accommodate the crankshaft
end play. The thrust plates each have
two oil grooves, which assures their
minimum friction against the crank-
shaft journal.
