DESCRIPTION
Selection points | Selection parts | Selection items | Selection methods |
Between cylinder block to crankshaft | Main bearing | Main bearing grade (bearing thickness) | Determined by match of cylinder block bearing housing grade (inner diameter of housing) and crankshaft journal grade (outer diameter of journal) |
Between crankshaft to connecting rod | Connecting rod bearing | Connecting rod bearing grade (bearing thickness) | Combining service grades for connecting rod big end inner diameter and crankshaft pin outer diameter determine connecting rod bearing selection |
Between cylinder block to piston | Piston and piston pin assembly (The piston is available together with piston pin as an assembly) | Piston grade (piston outer diameter) | Piston grade = cylinder bore grade (inner diameter of bore) |
*Between piston to connecting rod | — | — | — |
*For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between a piston pin and a connecting rod.
(Only 0 grade is available.) The information at the shipment from the plant is described as a reference.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
HOW TO SELECT A PISTON
When New Cylinder Block is Used:
(A) : Front mark
(B) : Piston pin bore grade
(C) : Piston grade I.D. stamp
(D) : Piston crown I.D. code stamp
(E) : ID marks
When a Cylinder Block is Reused:

NOTE:
HOW TO SELECT A CONNECTING ROD BEARING
When New Connecting Rod and Crankshaft are Used:
(A) : Oil splash
(B) : Small end diameter grade
(C) : Reference code
(D) : Bearing stopper groove
(E) : Reference code
(F) : Cylinder No.
(G) : Big end diameter grade
