Dirt and foreign particles can enter the engine during assembly, pass through filters or the PCV system, or get into the oil. Metal chips from machining operations and normal engine wear are also common. Abrasives may remain in engine components after reconditioning if not cleaned properly. These foreign objects can become embedded in the soft bearing material, while larger particles may score or gouge the bearing and journal.

When examining the bearings, remove them from the engine block, the main bearing caps, the connecting rods, and the rod caps, and lay them out on a clean surface in the same general position as their location in the engine. This will enable you to match any bearing problems with the corresponding crankshaft journal.
