CRANKSHAFT AND MAIN BEARINGS<br />
Tbe crankshaft runs in three pre-finished replaceable<br />
shell hearings, which are lead bronze lined<br />
and indium flashed.<br />
To Remove Crankshaft.<br />
Remove cylinder head (See Section H)."<br />
Remove sump (See Section P).<br />
Remove lubricating oir pump (See Section P.)<br />
Remove pistons and connecting rods (Sec<br />
Section J).<br />
Take off timing case front cover and remove<br />
idler gear.<br />
Remove timing case bottom cover.<br />
Remove starter motor.<br />
Remove flywheel and assembly.<br />
Remove the cranks haft Teat end seal.<br />
Remove main hearing caps and half hearings.<br />
Lift out crankshaft.<br />
Crankshaft Regrinding.<br />
E~amination ror Wear.<br />
Before proceeding to regrind the Crankshaft, the<br />
following points should be checked to ensure it is<br />
suitable fot further grinding.<br />
Tbe Crankshaft should be crack-detected and<br />
then demagnetised in order to remove any polarisation<br />
which may be present.<br />
Tbe main joumal and crankpin diameters should<br />
be checked fot ovality and measured to ascertain<br />
the next appropriate size to which the Crankshaft<br />
caD be reground, i.e. -.010" (-.25 mm), -.020"<br />
(-.51 mm), -.030" (-.76 mm) from Standard. If<br />
the crankshaft requires regrinding below -.030"<br />
(-.76 mm), it is recommended that ncw crankshaft<br />
he fitted.<br />
It should be noted, however, that in the home<br />
market, an exchange scheme is in operation whereby<br />
reconditioned Crankshafts are available at a<br />
certain cast, providing the Crankshaft being<br />
exchanged is not damaged and is suitable for regrinding<br />
to a limit of -.030" (-.76 mm).<br />
Regrinding.<br />
All the necessary information required for regrinding<br />
the Crankshaft is given under ' Crankshaft<br />
Data '. All limits listed thereunder must he<br />
adhered to and the main joumals and Crankpin<br />
must be free from grinding marks.<br />
Af ter regrinding, the sharp corners on the Dil<br />
ways should be removed and the Crankshaft crackdetected<br />
again and demagnetised.<br />
NOTE ;-It is important that the RADII on the<br />
main journals and Crankpins are maintained. If<br />
these are neglected, a fatigue fracture is liable to<br />
occur.<br />
