Title: 2UZ-FE ENGINE MECHANICAL: CYLINDER BLOCK: DISASSEMBLY (2008 Sequoia)

DISASSEMBLY

1. INSPECT CONNECTING ROD THRUST CLEARANCE

(a) Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance while moving the connecting rod back and forth.

Standard thrust clearance:

0.160 to 0.290 mm (0.00629 to 0.0114 in.)

Maximum thrust clearance:

0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)

If the thrust clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the connecting rod assembly.

If necessary, replace the crankshaft.

Standard connecting rod thickness:

22.880 to 22.920 mm (0.901 to 0.902 in.)

2. INSPECT CONNECTING ROD OIL CLEARANCE

(a) Check the matchmarks on the connecting rod and cap to ensure correct reassembly.

(b) Remove the 2 connecting rod cap bolts.

(c) Using the 2 removed connecting rod cap bolts, remove the connecting rod cap and lower bearing by wiggling the connecting rod cap right and left.

HINT:

Keep the lower bearing and connecting rod cap together.

(d) Clean the crank pin and bearing.

(e) Check the crank pin and bearing for pitting and scratches. If the crank pin or bearing is damaged, replace the bearings. If necessary, replace the crankshaft.

(f) Lay a strip of Plastigage across the crank pin.

(g) Install the connecting rod cap with the 2 bolts.

Torque: 25 N·m (255 kgf·cm, 18 ft·lbf)

NOTICE:

Do not turn the crankshaft.

If any one of the connecting rod cap bolts does not meet the torque specification, replace the connecting rod cap bolts.

(h) Mark the front side of each connecting rod cap bolt with paint.

(i) Tighten the cap bolts an additional 90° as shown.

(j) Check that the painted marks are now at a 90° angle to the front.

(k) Remove the 2 bolts, connecting rod cap and lower bearing.

(l) Measure the Plastigage at its widest point.



Standard oil clearance:

0.021 to 0.047 mm (0.000827 to 0.00185 in.)

Maximum oil clearance:

0.059 mm (0.00232 in.)

If the oil clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the bearings. If necessary, replace the crankshaft.



HINT:

If replacing a standard bearing, replace it with one that has the same number. If the number of the bearing cannot be determined, select the correct bearing by adding together the numbers imprinted on the connecting rod cap and crankshaft. Then select the bearing with the same number as the total. There are 6 sizes of standard bearings, marked 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

EXAMPLE:

Connecting rod cap "3" + Crankshaft "1" = "4" (Use bearing "4")
