8. Apply a small quantity of clean engine oil to the bolt threads and underside of the bolt

heads. Install the main bearing cap bolts and draw them up snug.

9. Torque main bearing cap bolt torque to 50 N·m (36 lb·ft).

10. Check the crankshaft end play a s follows:

[a] Move the crankshaft toward the gauge with a small 304 mm (less than 12 in.) pry bar.

Keep a constant pressure on the pry bar and zero the pointer on the dial indicator.

[b] Remove and insert the pry bar on the other side of the bearing cap. Force the

crankshaft in the opposite direction and note the amount of end play on the dial.

[c] The end play should be 0.099-0.419 mm (0.0039 -0.0165 in). Insufﬁcient end play

can be the result of a misaligned No. 6 main bearing, a misaligned upper thrust

washer or a burr or dirt on the inner face of one or more of the thrust washers.

11. For the DD13, torque all of the main bearing cap bolts, in three steps, using the sequence

shown below. Torque the main bearing cap bolts to:

[a] 150 N·m (110 lb·ft)

[b] 300 N·m (221 lb·ft)

[c] 90° torque turn
