Plastigage , Yellow rod bearings in spec
Replacing my rod bearings at 87,000mi. using orginal Porsche "yellow" marked box and so far the clearances look within spec. Measuring out from .025 - 040mm. The spec in the WSM for New bearing play is .02 - .07.
I probably would liked a hair more play, but I am going with what I have.
Point here is the "yellow" coded bearings seem to be working out OK but the "red" ones might of been better leaving a little more play. (more lub)
However the "Blue' ones would of been too tight.
Also the pistons going back in with the 951 ring set. Thanks Roger!
