Thrust Bearing, Washer and Shim
Some specifi cations use a thrust bearing, thrust washer,
and shim to control end play of crankshaft. If these
items were noted during disassembly, make sure they
were reinstalled in proper sequence, as illustrated. A
different procedure must be followed to check and adjust
crankshaft end play on these models.
Race for thrust bearing presses loosely into closure
plate. If it is not already installed, push it into crankshaft
bore inside closure plate. Pack thrust bearing with heavy
grease and stick bearing into race. Wipe some grease
on face of thrust washer and stick it onto thrust bearing.
Wipe some grease on face of original shim and stick it
onto thrust washer.
Install closure plate onto crankcase without applying
RTV sealant and secure it with only two or three
fasteners at this time. Use a dial indicator to check
crankshaft end play. End play should be 0.070/0.590 mm
(0.0027/0.0232 in.). Shims are available in fi ve color-
coded thicknesses listed below if adjustment is needed.
Crankshaft End Play Shims
Remove closure plate. If end play requires adjustment,
remove original shim and install appropriate size
replacement.
