it was raising hell with engine knock we spent 35.00 on bearings and oil and 1 1/2 hours had it going. These cars are notorious for this at least with this motor now he just has to get rid of it!
---------Here goes what we did----------------
1-put on ramps or jackstands
2-drain oil and remove oil filter
3-remove the brace connecting the trans to the oil pan(you can't miss it takes a 15mm socket)
4-remove the one a/c bolt that goes through the brkt and connects to the oil pan
5-remove the 2 10mm bolts going through the timing cover to the oil pan located beside harmonic balancer these can be a headache with the balancer on but you can do it
6-remove the oil pna bolts and drop pan
7-remove the oil pump pick-up tube
8-remove the main girdle
9-replacing the rod bearings go through and wiggle each one find the worse one and remove the cap if this is your worse one check it real good to make sure it is worth a shot at replacing. If the worse one isn't that bad it's worth a shot ate replacing them.
10-when replacing the rod bearings do the one at a time and turn the engine each time to ensure the bearing isn't to tight. Remember keyway to keyway on the cap and rod
11-torque specs i believe is 15flbs and then a 1/4 turn it's been a while so you might to double check this.
12. if your not sure of bearing size you can look on the backside of the old bearing it will say STD which means standard or .010 and so on
13.If any of the crank journals look bad you can clean them up with emory cloth
14.THIS IS NOT A FOR SURE FIX BUT FOR 50.00 AND AN AFTERNOON IT'S WORTH A SHOT AND WE GOT lUCKY.
---------GOOD LUCK-------------------
