8.4.1 Dimensional check and overhauling
Wash the crankshaft thoroughly using suitable detergent.
Insert the pipe cleaner into all lubrication ducts B and blow compressed air to free them completely from
any dirt residues.
Check the state of wear and integrity of journals C and connecting rod D.
Perform the operations described in
Points 2, 4, 9 and 10.
Measure the crank pins A1 with a micrometer, and using a dial gauge measure the internal diameter of the
connecting rod half-bearings A2.
Measure the main journals B1, with a micrometer, and using a dial gauge measure the internal diameter of
the crankshaft half-bearings B2.
If the values described in Tab. 8.5 do not correspond, proceed with grinding all gudgeon pins A1 and B1.
Gear A on the crankshaft is timed by a key, assembly of gear A on the shaft occurs after heating at a
