2. Procedure Two
1) Start the engine in the direction AHEAD
to move the crankshaft fully forward.
The crankshaft must touch the thrust
pads (3, Fig.1).
2) Stop the engine.
3) Make sure that the crankshaft does not
move.
4) Use the micrometer (94101, Fig. 2) to
measure the distance between the
coupling flange (1) and the oil baffle
(top part) (2).
5) Record the value.
6) Remove the micrometer (94101).
7) Compare the value with those given in
the engine documents on the Check
Dimensions page, see also 0330−1
Clearance Table, Crankshaft and
Thrust Bearing.
The difference between the distance X and
the value given in the engine documents is
related to the wear of the thrust pads (7,
Fig. 1).
8) Start the engine in the direction
ASTERN to move the crankshaft fully
forward. The crankshaft must touch the
thrust pads (3, Fig.1).
9) Stop the engine.
10) Make sure that the crankshaft does not
