020074Y Support base for checking crankshaft alignment
- If the crankshaft - crankcase axial clearance is higher than the standard value and the crankshaft
exhibits no irregularity, the problem is caused by wear or by a wrong machining on the engine crankcase.
- Check the diameters of both the bearings of the
crankshaft in accordance with the axes and surfa-
ces shown in the figure. Half-shafts are classified
into two categories, Cat. 1 and Cat. 2.
