If the number of the bearing cannot be determined, select the correct bearing by adding together the numbers imprinted on the cylinder block and crankshaft, then refer to the table for the appropriate bearing number. The No. 1 and No. 4 journal bearings have 5 standard bearing sizes, marked "3", "4", "5", "6" and "7" accordingly. The No. 2 and No. 3 journal bearings have 5 standard bearing sizes, marked "1", "2", "3", "4" and "5" accordingly.





No. 1 and No. 4 journal bearings

EXAMPLE: Cylinder block "06" (A)
