Using the removed crankshaft bearing cap bolts, pry the cap back and forth, and remove the crankshaft bearing caps, lower crankshaft bearings and lower thrust washers (No. 5 crankshaft bearing cap only).
Tech Tips
Keep the lower bearing and crankshaft bearing cap together.
Be sure to organize the bearing caps and lower thrust washers in such a way that they can be reinstalled exactly as before.
Lift out the crankshaft.
Tech Tips
Keep the upper crankshaft bearings and upper thrust washers together with the cylinder block.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| Maximum clearance |
|---|
| 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.) |
