Putting crankcase halves back together
04/30/07 at 20:14:54
 
Any ideas or tips on how to get the two halves together smoothly?  The manual says you should have no problems getting the halves to slide together.  

I did tighten the 46mm nut that hold on the flywheel weight and this may be the culprit.  

Basically the halves are together and the flywheel moves freely, BUT when I tighten the bolts that hold the halves together, the flywheel stops moving freely.  Very strange.  

Did anyone exerience the smooth crankcase assembly?

Did anyone have a difficult one?

Thanks guys/gals

Did the crank get seperated? Is the distance across the web correct? Zuzuki manual, page 3-46 upper right ppicture. 70.0+ or - .1 mm.

Do you remember how it felt when you were at this point taking it apart?

I am strictly fumbling in the dark, I've never been here & I hope to never be,, But, good luck!

Try tapping the crankshaft, balanceshaft and the gearshafts with a non-malet hammer as the SSM says. This will seat the bearings.

In my SSM it's in the chapter Engine 3 Crankcase,  page 3-48.

Hope this helps.

After been working in aviation maintenance ( for 40+ years) , I read the manual cover-to-cover and try to remember where descriptions are located, not what the procedure is.
So I thumped through the SSM and found it.
No offence

None taken, I asked wher was it. Aircraft maintenance would teach a guy to be thorough.
