Crankshaft
The crankshaft has five bearings, with five counterweights. It is possible to regrind the crankshaft journals during repairs with a diameter reduction of 0.25; 0.50 and 0.75 mm.
Main journal diameter, mm:
- nominal: 49.938-49.956;
- maximum permissible (when worn out): 49,890.
Diameter of connecting rod journals, mm:
- b3 and B5 engines;
- nominal: 39,940-39,956;
- maximum permissible (when worn out): 39,89;
- b6 and B6 EGI engines:
- nominal: 44,940-44,956;
- maximum permissible (when worn out): 44,89.
Ovality and taper of the surfaces of the main and connecting rod journals, no more than, mm: 0.05.
Non-straightness of main and connecting rod journals, no more than, mm: 0.04.
Pistons
The pistons are cast from aluminum alloy and have three piston rings.
The piston pin is pressed into the upper head of the connecting rod and rotates freely in the piston bosses. The pin is secured from axial movement by retaining rings.
