      Tech Tips

      If using a standard crankshaft bearing, replace it with one having the same number. If the number of the crankshaft bearing cannot be determined, select the correct crankshaft bearing by adding together the numbers imprinted on the cylinder block sub-assembly and crankshaft, and then selecting the crankshaft bearing with the same number as the total. There are 5 sizes of standard crankshaft bearings, marked 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

      EXAMPLE:

      Cylinder block sub-assembly (A) "3" + Crankshaft (B) "1" = Total number 4 (Use crankshaft bearing (C) "4")
