Refer to Specifications, "Crankshaft" for more information. If necessary, replace the crankshaft or recondition the crankshaft.
Ensure that the parent bores for the crankshaft bearings in the cylinder block are clean. Ensure that the threads for the bearing bolts in the cylinder block are clean and free from damage.
Clean the crankshaft bearings and the thrust washers. Inspect the bearings and the thrust washers for wear or damage. If necessary, replace the bearings and the thrust washers.Note: If the crankshaft bearings are replaced, check whether oversize bearings were previously installed. If the thrust washers are replaced, check whether oversize thrust washers were previously installed.
Ensure that all of the lubrication passages are clean and free of debris.
