You say the rod bearing was in place and torqued properly. To be certain the
bearing is OK you need to measure the clearances with a micrometer. Measure
the rod journal and note the diameter. Then place the rod bearing in the rod
cap and torque the cap while the rod is off of the crank. Then measure th
inside diameter of the bearing. Subtract the journal diameter fromt the
bearing diameter to get the amount of clearance. Compare your answer to book
specs.
Best regards,
Tom
