Crankshaft, Measuring Axial Clearance
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Dial Gauge Holder:VW387
- Dial Gauge - 0-10mm:VAS6079
Procedure
-- Attach the :VAS6079 with the :VW387 to the cylinder block and with approximately 2 mm tension, set indicator against crankshaft counterweight.
-- Push the crankshaft against the dial gauge by hand and set the dial gauge to "0".
-- Remove the crankshaft from the dial gauge and read the measurement.
