Allocation of crankshaft bearing shells
(classification)
Main bearing shells of the correct thickness are allocated to the
cylinder block and crankshaft at the factory. Coloured dots are
used to identify the thickness of the bearing shells.
If the cylinder block or crankshaft is changed, the crankshaft
bearing shells must be reallocated.
Always insert bearing shell for cylinder block (upper bearing shell)
with yellow colour marking.
Establish the correct colour marking for the bearing shell in bear‐
ing cap (lower bearing shell) with regard to the letters on the
cylinder block and the crankshaft.
The first letter is allocated to bearing cap one, the second to bear‐
ing cap two, etc.
Cylinder block identification:
The letters are located on the sealing surface of sump.
