Crankshaft, Engine
CRANKSHAFT END PLAY^ Measure the clearance between thrust bearings and crankshaft arm when crankshaft is moved fully forward or backward with dial indicator.
Standard: 0.10 - 0.25 mm (0.0039 - 0.0098 inch)
Limit: 0.30 mm (0.0118 inch)
^ If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace thrust bearings, and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft also.
CRANKSHAFT OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER
^ Measure the dimensions at four different points as shown in the figure on each main journal and pin journal with micrometer.
^ Out-of-round is indicated by the difference in the dimensions between X and Y at A and B.
^ Taper is indicated by the difference in the dimensions between A and B at X and Y.
Limit:
Out-of-round (Difference between X and Y): 0.015 mm (0.0006 inch)
Taper (Difference between A and B): 0.010 mm (0.0004 inch)
^ If the measured value exceeds the limit, correct or replace crankshaft.
^ If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then select the main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing.
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT
^ Place V-block on precise flat table, and support the journals on the both end of crankshaft.
^ Place dial indicator straight up on the No. 3 journal.
^ While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer on dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)
Limit: 0.10 mm (0.004 inch)
^ If it exceeds the limit replace crankshaft.
