[4] CRANKSHAFT

Clearance between Piston Ring and Groove
1. Clean the rings and the ring grooves, and install each ring in its
groove.
2. Measure the clearance between the ring and the groove with a
feeler gauge or depth gauge.
3. If the clearance is more than the allowable limit, replace the
piston ring.
4. If the clearance stays more than the allowable limit with new
ring, replace the piston also.

Side Clearance of Crankshaft
1. Set a dial indicator with its point on the end of the crankshaft.
2. Move the crankshaft to the front and rear to measure the side
clearance.
3. If the measurement is more than the allowable limit, replace the
thrust bearings.
4. If the same dimension bearing is not applicable because of the
crankshaft journal wear, replace it with an oversize one. Refer
to the table and figure.
