If replacing a crankshaft bearing, select a new one with the same number. If the number of the crankshaft bearing cannot be determined, calculate the correct crankshaft bearing number by adding together the numbers imprinted on the cylinder block sub-assembly and crankshaft. Then refer to the following table for the appropriate crankshaft bearing number. There are 4 sizes of standard bearings, marked "1", "2", "3" or "4" accordingly.

*c | Diameter Mark | - | - |
Cylinder block sub-assembly (A) "3" + Crankshaft (B) "4" = Total "7"
