(4) Crankshaft
Crankshaft Side Clearance
1. Set a dial indicator with its tip on the end of the crankshaft.
2. Measure the side clearance by moving the crankshaft to the
front and rear.
3. If the measurement exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
thrust bearings.
4. If the same size bearing is out of specifications because of the
crankshaft journal wear, replace it with an oversize one referring
to the table and figure.
(Reference)
• Oversize dimensions of crankshaft journal.

Crankshaft Alignment
1. Support the crankshaft with V block on the surface plate and set
a dial indicator with its tip on the intermediate journal at right
angle.
2. Rotate the crankshaft on the V block and get the misalignment
(half of the measurement value).
3. If the misalignment exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
crankshaft.
