12.3.2  Fretting General Information 

 

Figure 204 

– Crankcase Fretting 

  Cases  which  have  suffered  fretting  can  be  identified  as  shown  in  Figure  204.    There  will  be 

characteristic markings on the crankcase joining face near the main bearing journals which can be felt 
by scratching with a fingernail 

– the raised portions will be clearly evident. 

  Suspect  cases  can  also  be  checked  in  the  field  by  checking  the  torque  of  the  bottom  crankcase 

through-bolts with the torque wrench set at 28lb.ft.  These bolts are set at 30lb.ft during assembly so if 
the  nuts  move  at  28lb.ft  it  is  a  good  indicator  that  the  cases  have  fretted  and  are  no  longer  seating 
together securely. 

  An  engine  which  operates  for  an  extended  period  with  fretting  can  lead  to  unrepairable  crankcase 

damage, through bolt failure and engine stoppage. 

  The main causes of crankcase fretting in the Jabiru Engines are: 

a.  Pre-ignition or detonation due to lean running, incorrect fuel, low octane fuel, contaminated fuels or 

combinations. 

b.  Incorrect through-bolt torque or uneven bolt tensioning. 
c.  Reduced through-bolt tension due to cylinder base cracking 
d.  Cracked or broken through-bolts 
e.  Poorly matched case halves 
f.  An  inadvertent  lean  run 

–  for  example  due  to  a  incorrectly  set  float  level  or  partially  blocked  fuel 

filter. 

g.  Running  engines  with  high  valve  stem-to-guide  clearances,  promoting  oil  residue  in  the  intake 

system.    This  has  the  effect  of  reducing  the  octane  number  (or  AKI)  of  the  fuel  and  can  lead  to 
detonation or pre-ignition. 

12.3.3  Fretted Crankcase Repair 

  Fretting can be repaired 

by surfacing (or “decking”) the crankcase, then line-boring the crankshaft and 

camshaft tunnels.  Surfacing should always take the bare minimum material to remain within the limits 
set.    Excess  surfacing  will  lead  to  the  sump  and  backing  plate  not  fitting  the  cases,  rendering  them 
unserviceable. 

WARNING 

This process requires specialist equipment, tools and training to be successful.  Overhaulers must 

not attempt this job without access to these items. 

  First the crankcases need to be completely stripped.  All bolts, studs, dowels, fittings and plugs must be 

removed.  Heat may be required to extract some items.
