Installation Notes

  1. Ensure the engine is off and the battery is disconnected. Drain the engine oil completely.
  2. Access the connecting rod caps from the bottom of the engine. This may require removing the oil pan.
  3. Carefully remove the connecting rod cap for the cylinder you are servicing. Note the orientation of the cap.
  4. Remove the old bearing half-shells from the rod and the cap.
  5. Thoroughly clean the bearing surfaces on the connecting rod and cap. Ensure they are free of oil, debris, and burrs.
  6. Apply a generous amount of assembly lube to the new bearing half-shells.
  7. Install the new bearings into the rod and cap, ensuring the locking tabs seat correctly.
  8. Reinstall the connecting rod cap in its original orientation and torque the bolts to the manufacturer's specifications.
  9. Repeat the process for any other cylinders as needed.
  10. Re-install the oil pan with a new gasket, refill the engine with fresh oil, and check for leaks upon starting.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if these bearings will fit my specific Yanmar engine?

First, verify your engine model is listed in the compatibility table (e.g., 2GM20, 3GM30). Second, confirm it falls within the specified year range (through 2004 for most models). Finally, if possible, cross-reference the part number 705311-23600 with your service manual or the old part.

What are the signs of a failing connecting rod bearing?

The most common symptom is a persistent, rhythmic knocking or ticking sound from the engine that increases in frequency with RPMs. Other signs include low oil pressure readings, a lit oil pressure warning light, and visible metallic shavings in the engine oil during an oil change.

Is this a complete set for one piston?

Yes, this product includes two half-shells, which form one complete bearing pair for a single connecting rod.

What is the difference between standard (STD) and oversized/undersized bearings?

Standard (STD) bearings are used when the crankshaft's connecting rod journal is within its original factory dimensions. Oversized or undersized bearings are required only if the crankshaft has been machined down during a rebuild.

When should I replace my connecting rod bearings?

Bearings are typically replaced during a major engine overhaul or when symptoms of failure (like engine knock) are diagnosed. They are a wear item but do not have a fixed replacement interval; their lifespan depends on engine hours, load, and maintenance history.

Can I replace just one connecting rod bearing?

While it is possible to replace a single bearing set, it is best practice to replace all connecting rod bearings at the same time during an engine rebuild to ensure even wear and balanced performance.
