        If the circle runout is greater than the maximum, replace the crankshaft.

      Inspect the main journals and crank pins.


      1. Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of each main journal and crank pin.

        Main journal diameter
        Size Diameter
        STD 61.985 to 62.000 mm (2.4403 to 2.4409 in.)
        U/S 0.25 61.745 to 61.755 mm (2.4309 to 2.4313 in.)
        U/S 0.50 61.495 to 61.505 mm (2.4211 to 2.4215 in.)
        Crank pin diameter
        Size Diameter
        STD 54.988 to 55.000 mm (2.1649 to 2.1654 in.)
        U/S 0.25 54.745 to 54.755 mm (2.1553 to 2.1557 in.)
        U/S 0.50 54.495 to 54.505 mm (2.1455 to 2.1459 in.)

        If the diameter is not as specified, check the oil clearance (See steps 50 and 54). If necessary, grind or replace the crankshaft.

      2. Check each main journal and crank pin for taper and out-of-round as shown.

        Maximum taper and out-of-round
        0.02 mm (0.0008 in.)

        If the taper and out-of-round is greater than the maximum, replace the crankshaft.

    3. If necessary, grind and hone the main journals and/or crank pins.


      1. Grind and hone the main journals and/or crank pins to the finished undersized diameter (See procedure in step (b) above).

      2. Install new main journal and/or crankshaft pin undersized bearing.
