Crankshaft: Description and Operation
Crankshaft - Description
DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft is constructed of a forged micro alloy steel. A six throw, nine counterweight crankshaft is supported by four select fit main bearings with
number two serving as the thrust washer location. The six separate connecting rod throws are an even-firing design which reduces torque fluctuations
while a torsional vibration damper is used to control torsion caused vibration of the crankshaft. Rubber lipped seals are used at front and rear. The front
seal is retained in the oil pump case and the rear seal is retained in a block-mounted housing.
