During engine overhaul, connecting rod bolts are preferably replaced as a complete set. Lubricate the thread and underside of the bolt head with engine oil for accurate torque measurements.
Compatibility
Please note: different engine types use different bolt diameters and lengths. Early chain-driven engines typically use different bolts than later gear-driven versions. Always check the original bolt and compare it with the new component before installation.
