Operation 4-10
To check the clearance between the crankshaft bearing journal and the bearing cap.
1 Clean the bearing surfaces and the exposed half of the crankshaft journal.
2 Fit the bearing caps and tighten the bearing cap to torque.
3 Remove the bearing cap of the clearance to be checked.
4 Place a piece of Plastigauge ® across the full width of the bearing surface on the crankshaft journal, fit the
bearing cap and tighten the bearing cap setscrew to the specified torque.
5 Remove the bearing cap but do not move the Plastigauge ®.

the bearing clearance in thousandths of an inch.

bearings fitted.
