🔍 Key Concepts

• engine bearing inserts and how they are held firmly in place • the purpose of the ends of a bearing extending slightly beyond the housing or cap • how a bearing prevents turning or slipping in its housing under load

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when the cap is tightened, what mechanical effect is created by the extra length of the bearing ends? • Which term describes the condition where a part is intentionally made slightly oversized so it is held tightly in its seat? • Which choice would most likely describe a method to keep the bearing from rotating in the housing during engine operation?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the description to the term that means an intentional tight fit between parts. • Eliminate any options that sound like they relate more to running clearance (space for oil film) rather than how the bearing is secured in place. • Confirm which term is specifically used in engine work to describe the bearing being pinched or squeezed into firm contact when the cap bolts are tightened.
