gauge to the cylinder block so that the stylus rests in
a loaded condition squarely on the end of the
crankshaft. Lever the crankshaft forward or re.arward
and zero the gauge. Lever the crankshaft in the
opposite direction and note the reading. See data for
correct end float.

mating face using jounting compound.
b. Fit the sealing block with the three tapped
holes facing outwards and loosely secure with
the two set screws.
c. Drive wedges into the slots having first coated
them with jointing compound.
d. Line up the front face of the sealing block with
the crankcase using a straight edge.

Finally tighten the set screws and trim the
protruding ends of the wedges flush with the
crankcase taking care not to undercut them,
thereby causing a passage for oil leakage.
