- Install thrust bearings with the oil groove facing the crankshaft arm (outside).
- Install thrust bearings with a protrusion in the center on the main bearing caps.





c. Install main bearings paying attention to the direction.
- Install the one with oil holes onto the cylinder block and the one without oil holes onto the main bearing cap.
- Before installing bearings, apply engine oil to bearing surface
(inside). Do not apply oil to the back surface, but thoroughly clean it.
- When installing, align the bearing stopper to the notch.
- Ensure the oil holes on the cylinder block and those on the corresponding bearing are aligned.





4. Install pilot converter to the crankshaft using suitable tool.
5. Install crankshaft to the cylinder block.
- While turning crankshaft by hand, make sure it turns smoothly.





6. Install main bearing caps.
- Align the identification number to the journal position to install.
- Install it with the front mark (indicated by the arrow) facing the front of engine.
- Tap caps lightly to seat them in the installation position.





7. Follow the steps below to tighten each main bearing cap bolt.
a. Apply engine oil to threads and seating surfaces of bolts, and tighten all bolts temporarily.










b. Measure tightening angle using Tool.

Tool number : KV10112100 (BT-8653-A)


CAUTION:
