(4) Crankshaft
Side Clearance of Crankshaft
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 useless because of the crankshaft
journal wear, replace it with an oversize one referring to the
table and figure.

Crankshaft Alignment
1. Support the crankshaft with V blocks 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 blocks and get the misalignment
(half of the measurement).
3. If the misalignment exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
crankshaft.
