Assembly
NOTE:
- Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
- Before installing the parts, apply new engine oil to all sliding and rotating surfaces.
- Replace all gaskets, O-rings and oil seals with new parts.
CRANKSHAFT BEARING SELECTION
If using a standard bearing, replace it with (or having) the same number.
If the number of the bearing, cannot be determined, select the correct bearing by adding together the numbers imprinted on the cylinder block and crankshaft, then refer to the table below for the appropriate bearing number.
There are five sizes of the standard bearings. For No. 1 and No. 5 position bearings, use bearings marked "3" "4" "5" "6" and "7 . For others position bearings, use bearings marked "1", "2", "3", "4" and "5".
