(5) 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 useless because of the crankshaft
journal wear, replace it with an oversize one referring to the
table and figure.
(Reference)
• Oversize thrust bearing
• Oversize dimensions of crankshaft journal

Crankshaft Alignment
1. Support the crankshaft with V blocks on the surface plate at

2. Set a dial indicator with its tip on the intermediate journal.

crankshaft.
