Cleaning
and
Inspection
Cleaning the Crankshaft
Clean
the crankshaft oil drillings
with
a nylon brush.
Rinse
in clean solvent and dry
with
compressed
air.
Inspecting the Crankshaft
inspect
the
front
and rear seal contact areas of the crankshaft
for
scratches
or grooving.
The service seal kit
will
position the
seal
slightly deeper
into
the
seal
bore
so it
will
contact the crankshaft at a
different
location.
If this has already been done and the crankshaft
has
two
worn
areas,
install a wear sleeve to provide a new contact
surface
for
the
seal.
