🔍 Key Concepts

• Shims and how they affect the fit between the connecting rod and bearing box • Relationship between bearing clearance and physical distance between bearing surfaces • How compression ratio is determined in a diesel engine (clearance volume vs piston position)

💭 Think About

• If you remove a thin piece of material from between two mating surfaces, what happens to the distance between those surfaces? • How does changing the fit between the connecting rod foot and the bearing box affect the space for the bearing and the oil film? • Does altering the bearing fit at the crankpin actually move the piston’s top dead center position enough to change the combustion chamber volume?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear whether shims make the joint thicker or thinner when present • Think through whether bearing clearance becomes larger or smaller when the joint is pulled tighter • Verify whether compression ratio mainly depends on combustion chamber geometry or on small changes in bearing fit at the crankpin
