Factory installed parts grading:
^ Service parts apply only to grade 0.
CYLINDER BLOCK DISTORTION
^ Using a scraper, remove any old gasket material on the cylinder block surface, and remove any oil, scale, carbon, or other contamination.
CAUTION: Be careful not to allow gasket flakes to enter the oil or coolant passages.
^ Measure the distortion on the block upper face at different points in six directions.
Distortion limit: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in)
^ If out of specification, resurface the cylinder block. The allowable amount of resurfacing is dependent on the amount of any cylinder head resurfacing. The resurfacing limit is [amount of cylinder head resurfacing] + [amount of cylinder head resurfacing] = 0.2 mm (0.008 in).

Standard: 63.993 - 64.017 mm (2.5194 - 2.5203 in)
^ If out of the standard, replace the cylinder block and main bearing caps as an assembly.
NOTE: These components cannot be replaced as a single unit, because they were processed together.
PISTON-TO-CYLINDER BORE CLEARANCE
1. Using a bore gauge, measure cylinder bore for wear, out-of-round and taper. The X axis is in the longitudinal direction of the engine.
Cylinder bore inner diameter:
If it exceeds the limit, rebore all cylinders. Replace cylinder block if necessary.
Out-of-round (Difference between X and Y): limit 0.015 mm (0.0006 in)
Taper (Difference between A and C): limit 0.015 mm (0.0006 in)
2. Check for scratches and seizure. If seizure is found, hone it.
^ If both cylinder block and piston are replaced with new ones, select piston of the same grade number punched on cylinder block rear position. These numbers are punched in either Arabic or Roman numerals.
3. Measure piston skirt diameter.
Measuring point "a" (Distance from the top): 41.0 mm (1.614 in)
4. Check that piston-to-bore clearance is within specification.
Piston-to-bore: 0.010 - 0.030 mm (0.0004 - 0.0012 in) clearance at "B"
^ The piston-to-bore clearance is measured at the "B" level in the cylinder as shown.
5. Determine piston oversize according to amount of cylinder wear.
Oversize pistons are available for service.
6. Cylinder bore size is determined by adding piston-to-bore clearance to piston diameter "A".
Rebored size calculation: D = A + B - C
where,
D: Bored diameter
A: Piston diameter as measured
B: Piston-to-bore clearance
C: Honing allowance 0.02 mm (0.0008 in)
7. Install main bearing caps, and tighten to the specified torque. Otherwise, cylinder bores may be distorted after boring.
8. Cut cylinder bores.
^ When any cylinder needs boring, all other cylinders must also be bored.
^ Do not cut too much out of cylinder bore at a time. Cut only 0.05 mm (0.0020 in) or so in diameter at a time.
9. Hone cylinders to obtain specified piston-to-bore clearance.
10. Measure finished cylinder bore for out-of-round and taper.
^ Measurement should be done after cylinder bore cools down.
BEARING CLEARANCE
^ Use either of the following two methods, however method "A" gives more reliable results and so is the preferred method.
Method A (Using Bore Gauge and Micrometer)
Main Bearing
1. Set the main bearings in their proper positions on the cylinder block and the main bearing cap.
2. Install the main bearing caps and bearing beam to the cylinder block. Tighten all bolts in the numerical order as specified.
3. Measure the inner diameters "A" of each main bearing as shown.
4. Measure the outer diameters "Dm" of each crankshaft main journal as shown.
5. Calculate the main bearing clearance.
Main bearing clearance = "A" - "Dm"
Standard: 0.035 - 0.045 mm (0.0014 - 0.0018 in)
Limit: 0.065 mm (0.0026 in)
^ If it exceeds the limit, replace the bearing.
^ If clearance cannot be adjusted using any standard bearing grade, grind crankshaft journal and use an undersized bearing.
^ When grinding the crankshaft journal, confirm that the "L" dimension in the fillet role is more than the specified limit.
"L": 0.1 mm (0.004 in)
6. If the crankshaft or the cylinder block is replaced with a new one, select thickness of the main bearings as follows:
a. The grade number of each cylinder block main journal is punched on the respective cylinder block. These numbers are punched in either Arabic or Roman numerals. If measured diameter is out of the grade punched, decide suitable grade from available main bearings.
b. The grade number of each crankshaft main journal is punched on the crankshaft end. These numbers are punched in either Arabic or Roman numerals. If measured diameter is out of grade punched, decide the suitable grade from available main bearings.
c. Select the main bearing suitable thickness according to the following table:
Connecting Rod Bearing (Big End)
1. Install the connecting rod bearing to the connecting rod and cap.
2. Install the connecting rod cap to the connecting rod. Tighten to specification. Refer to Exploded View EM-113.
3. Measure the inner diameter "C" of each connecting rod (big end) as shown.
4. Measure the outer diameter "Dp" of each crankshaft pin journal.
5. Calculate the connecting rod bearing clearance.
Connecting rod bearing clearance = C - Dp
Standard: 0.034 - 0.059 mm (0.0013 - 0.0023 in)
Limit: 0.070 mm (0.0028 in)
6. If the calculated clearance exceeds the specified limit, replace the bearings.
7. If the clearance cannot be adjusted within the standard of any bearing, grind the crankshaft journal and use undersized bearings.
8. If the crankshaft is replaced with a new one, select the connecting rod bearings according to the following table:
Connecting Rod Bearing Grade Number (Identification Color):
These numbers are punched in either Arabic or Roman numerals.
Method B (Using Plastigage)
^ Remove oil and dust on the crankshaft pin and the surfaces of each bearing completely.
^ Cut a Plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil holes.
^ Install the connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod cap, and tighten the connecting rod nuts to the specified torque.
CAUTION: Never rotate the crankshaft.
^ Remove the connecting rod cap and bearings, and using the scale on the Plastigage bag, measure the Plastigage width.
NOTE: The procedure when the measured value exceeds the repair limit is same as that described in "Method A (Using Bore Gauge and Micrometer)".
