Bearings
There are two bearings to inspect; a plain bearing in the
sump and a plain bearing in the cylinder block. To inspect
the bearings:
1. Remove the sump and cylinder block oil seals using a
seal puller. See Figure 10.20.
2. Inspect the bearing surface for galling, scratches,
metal transfer or any other signs of damage.
3. Measure the inside diameter of the bearings and
compare to the chart at the end of this chapter. See
Figure 10.21.
