ENGINE RECONDITIONING (Cont)
(4) Shaft Alignment.
Install crankshaft in V blocks with outer mains resting in blocks and check concentricity with dial
indicator riding on shaft as shown below. If run-out exceeds 0.002 inch ( 0.005 cm) TIR, remove shaft and try
to bring back into alignment by either pinching weights closer together in a vise or by spreading them further
apart with a metal wedge. Repeat alignment check after repositioning weights. If this fails to bring shafts back
into alignment, a new assembly must be used.
