Additional Service Items
No additional service items required.
General Information
CAUTION
Do not reuse or stack friction shims or engine damage
may occur.
CAUTION
Friction shim, flywheel, and crank gear interconnecting
surfaces must be free of grease upon installation or
engine damage may occur.
The rear crankshaft gear is bolted on to the last main journal of
the crank. The crankshaft gear shall not be removed unless it
is being replaced.
This engine uses friction enhancing shims between the crank
and gear and between the gear and flywheel. This design is
unique in that the rear crank gear is a separate piece bolted on
to the last main journal of the crank, rather than being a press
fit gear in more conventional designs.
The crankshaft and crankshaft gear shall not be separated
unless the crankshaft gear is being replaced. If they are
separated insure that a new shim is replaced in the joint.

When using solvents, acids, or alkaline materials for
cleaning, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for
use. Wear goggles and protective clothing to reduce the
possibility of personal injury.
WARNING
Wear appropriate eye and face protection when using
compressed air. Flying debris and dirt can cause personal
injury.
Clean the crankshaft nose with cleaning pad, Part Number
3823258 or equivalent. Debris remaining on the crankshaft can
prevent the correct installation of the gear.
Inspect the machined surface for scratches or nicks.
Use a crocus cloth to remove any scratches or nicks.
If scratches or nicks can be felt with a fingernail after the
crankshaft has been polished with the crocus cloth, the
crankshaft must be replaced.
