The start of connecting rod bearing service and repair requires following general procedures which include cleaning and inspecting the
Crankshaft and crankshaft bearings and camshaft and crankshaft bearings as well as the cylinder head and valve train components (valves, seats, springs, etc.) and
Piston and piston pin and connecting rod and cylinder block and bore. During subassembly processing the technicians service cylinder head components as well as piston components and the piston pin and connecting rod assemblies. Service and repair guidelines encompass the complete breakdown process of the engine along with its assembly sequence. The absence of a service procedure for an internal engine part suggests manufacturer neglect since available procedures exist within the engine service and repair documentation.
