WARNING The crankshaft must not be removed. Merely releasing the screws for the crankshaft bearing cover will result in deformations of the bearing seats of the cylinder block. These deformations reduce the bearing clearance. Even if the bearing shells were not replaced, the changed bearing clearance may cause damage to the bearing. |
If the bearing cover screws have been released, replace the complete cylinder block together with the crankshaft. |
It is not possible to measure the crankshaft bearing clearance under workshop conditions. |
