Measure the flywheel runout using a dial indicator
through at least two full turns. Push against the fly-
wheel each time you turn it to take up the crank-
shaft thrust washer clearance.
NOTE: The runout can be measured with engine
installed.
Standard (Newl: 0.05 mm (0.002 in) max.
Service Limit: 0.15 mm {0.006 inl
lf the runout is more than the service limit, replace
the flywheel and recheck the runout
Turn the inner race ot the flywheel bearing with your
