Measure the camshaft journals, which fit in the ball
bearings, for wear using a micrometer. Compare with
specifications listed.

Crankshaft
Inspection and Service
Inspect the gear teeth of the crankshaft. If the teeth are
badly worn, chipped, or some are missing,
replacement of the crankshaft will be necessary.
Inspect the crankshaft bearing surfaces for scoring,
grooving, etc. Do not replace the main bearings unless
they shown signs of damage or are out of running
clearance specifications. If the crankshaft turns easily
and noiselessly, and there is no evidence of scoring,
grooving, etc., on the races or bearing surfaces, the
bearings can be reused.
Inspect the crankshaft keyways. If worn or chipped,
replacement of the crankshaft will be necessary.

pickup. Slight score marks can be cleaned with crocus
cloth soaked in oil. If wear limits, as stated in
26.08 ± 0.05 mm
Specifications and Tolerances are exceeded, it will be
(1.03 ± 0.002 in.)
necessary to replace the crankshaft.
Crankcase
Inspection and Service
Check all gasket surfaces to make sure they are free of
gasket fragments. Gasket surfaces must also be free of
deep scratches or nicks.
Check the cylinder bore for wear, scoring, or vertical
scratches. In severe cases, unburned fuel can cause
scuffing and scoring of the cylinder wall, it washes the
necessary lubricating oils off the piston and cylinder
wall. As raw fuel seeps down the cylinder wall, the
piston rings make metal to metal contact with the
wall. Scoring of the cylinder wall can also be caused
by localized hot spots resulting from blocked cooling
fins or from inadequate or contaminated lubrication.
Measure the cylinder bore using an inside micrometer
or bore gauge. See Figure 10-6. Compare readings
with specifications in Section 1.
