l Wear eyeshields when using compressed air.
a. Preinspection
1. Inspect camshaft bearings (2) for chips, cracks, or scoring. If any bearing (2) is chipped, cracked,
or scored, remove all camshaft bearings (2) (para. 2-16.d.3) and hot tank clean cylinder block (1)
(para. 2-16.b.1).
2. Measure inside diameter of all camshaft bearings (2). Number one through number four camshaft
bearings must be 2.167-2.170 in. (55.041-55.118 mm) and number five camshaft bearing (rear)
must be 2.009-2.012-in. (51.028-51.104 mm). If any camshaft bearings (2) do not meet specifica-
tions, replace all camshaft bearings (2) (para. 2-16.d.3) and hot tank clean cylinder block (1)
(para. 2-16.b.1).
3. If all bearings (2) are to be reused, steam clean cylinder block (1) (para. 2-16.b.2).
b. Cleaning
