in watercraft without overhauling engine.<br />
Crankshaft Alignment at Center<br />

misaligned or deflected. Crankshaft can be twisted<br />
on center main journal, changing timing of one<br />
cylinder in relation with the other.<br />

1<br />
To accurately check if crankshaft is twisted on center<br />
main journal, proceed as follows:<br />
– Remove magneto housing cover.<br />
– Remove flywheel nut (and magneto rotor for<br />
the 787 RFI and 947 DI engines). Refer to<br />
MAGNETO SYSTEM for procedures.<br />
– Install Bombardier degree wheel (P/N 529 035<br />
607)) on crankshaft end. Hand-tighten nut only.<br />
– Remove both spark plugs.<br />
– Install a TDC gauge in spark plug hole on MAG<br />
side.<br />
– Bring MAG piston at Top Dead Center.<br />
– As a needle pointer, secure a wire with a cover<br />
screw and a washer.<br />
– Rotate degree wheel (NOT crankshaft) so that<br />
needle pointer reads 360°.<br />
