Place a dial gauge (A) with a magnetic base on a support plate fixed to the crankcase.
Bring the stylus into contact with the end of the crankshaft and set the dial gauge to zero in this position.
Insert a lever (B) between the crankcase and the crank web and force the crankshaft towards the dial gauge.
Note the dial gauge reading. This is the crankshaft endfloat. Add a preload of (0.30 mm) plus the thickness of the shims used
(1.90x2=3.8 mm).
Divide the resulting value by two to obtain the thickness of the shim packs to be installed at either end of the crankshaft.
Notes
After assembling the crankcase, the crankshaft should turn with some interference in the new bearings.
