Bearing fitting instructions

  • Fit the bearing dry in its housing, properly degreased and free of any deposits.
  • Lubricate the bearings with engine oil using a silicone brush.
    Avoid using oil cans: mishandling could scratch the bearing surface.
  • Tighten the bearing caps to the specified torque then check that the crankshaft rotates freely.
  • If rotation is stiff or locked: loosen one cap at a time then test again to identify the cap at fault.
  • This problem often comes from aswapped bearing cap (turned around or exchanged with another cap).
