If the journal radius is not large enough it can make the BE or center web feel tight
before the crank is assembled into the crankcase, the conrod should just fall under its own weight with light oiling on assembly and torquing to specification . Worn conrods can cause the BE to be tight . usually a sign of this is that the caps are difficult to fit and feel as if they are binding on the studs
The centre web again when torqued to spec should be able to turn freely with light oiling on assembly
Only once you have achieved this , should you assemble in the crankcaseStatistics: Posted by g80csp11 — Sat Mar 09, 2024 5:18 pm
