Section 01 ENGINE MEASUREMENT Subsection 01 (MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES) 1 2 3 F01D1NB 4 1 1. Connecting rod journal alignment here Such misalignment may make it difficult to manually turn the crankshaft. Verification can be done by measuring deflection each end of crankshaft. If deflection is found greater than specified tolerance, this indicates worn bearing(s), bent and/or misaligned crankshaft. Proceed with the disassembly of the engine. F01D4IA TYPICAL 1. TDC gauge 2. Degree wheel 3.
Section 01 ENGINE MEASUREMENT Subsection 01 (MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES) Crankshaft Deflection Crankshaft deflection is measured each end with a dial indicator.
