Refitting ( Removing

) Visually inspect the condition of the main journal and connecting rod half-bearings and, if necessary, replace them.Record the main bearing half thickness.

	Measurement		Value
-	Side crankshaft bearing thickness (mm)	Category B	1.836 -1.844
Category C	1.843 -1.849
Classe A	1.831 -1.837

Record the main bearing half thickness.

	Measurement		Value
-	Connecting rod half bearing thickness (mm)	Category B	1.530 ÷ 1.534
Category C	1.533 ÷ 1.537
Classe A	1.527 ÷ 1.531

Measure the clearance between main journals and bearing halves and crankpins and bearing halves using Plastic Gauge.The clearance between bearing halves and journals must be within specified limits.

	Measurement		Value
-	Big end bearing clearance (mm)	crankshaft big end bearings	0.030 ÷ 0.056

If the clearance is not within specified limits, replace the main bearings and/or connecting rod bearings as indicated in - 1004E20 engine - dismantle and re-build following operation 1004e10 - wash and check dismantled parts - re-fit cylinder head and oil sump - does not include repairs to cylinder head and auxiliary unit . Fit the upper main journal half-bearings in the cylinder block/crankcase.Fit the upper connecting rod half-bearings on the connecting rods.Fit the crankshaft on the cylinder block/crankcase.Fit the thrust washers on the 4th main journal support.1. Fit the bearing caps.

The bearing caps have progressive notches (from zero to five starting from the front of the engine) which define their fitting position.

1. Tighten the bearing cap bolts (1a) to the recommended torque using the angular tightening tool (1b).

Rotate the crankshaft using the tool fitted previously until the cylinder concerned is at B.D.C.Fit the connecting rod cap, complete with half-bearing, and fix it using the bolts without tightening them.

The connecting rod caps are fitted so that the number stamped on them is facing the same side as the one stamped on the big end (inlet side).

Continue in the same way when fitting the connecting rod caps for the remaining cylinders.1. Tighten the bolts (1a) for the connecting rod caps to the recommended torque, using the angular tightening tool (1b).
