When the space measures .001'’ (.025 mm) to .007'’
(.178 mm) no gaskets required, or if over .007'’ and
shimmed with gaskets the end result is that there
shall be no crankshaft end play. Shim gaskets are
available in .004/.005” (.102/.127 mm) and .005/.007”
(.127/.178 mm) thickness.
NOTE: If clearance between cover and cylinder is
over .007'’ (.178 mm) and gasket shims are not used,
damage to the cylinder cover can result.
After the cylinder cover is secured to correct torque
specification, place the engine in a stand or device
that will allow the P.T.O. (Power-Take-Off) shaft to
extend freely. DO NOT set engine on P.T.O. shaft
or the correct crankshaft end play cannot be obtained.
Turn the crankshaft until the piston is a T.D.C. Tap
the flywheel end of the crankshaft lightly with a mallet
to seat the P.T.O. bearing.
Insert an oil seal in the cover. Position the .010 (.254
mm) spacer, if required. Position the shim gaskets
(if required) and place the cover on the cylinder.
Use an oil seal sleeve to protect the oil seal. Secure
the cover with the hex head bolts and TORQUE.
See Specifications. Rotate the crankshaft and test
for freedom of movement. There shall not be any
crankshaft end play. The only exception is the VH100
with oil pump.
Knocking noise in an engine may at times be traced
to excessive radial crankshaft play. If this is noted,
review the cover shim gaskets. Correct by adding
or removing as required.
With either fingers or two screwdrivers, press the
bearing cup inward until tight.
NOTE: When measuring for crankshaft end play be
sure shim gaskets and O rings are removed.
Position the cylinder cover (magneto end), oil seal,
and sleeve tool over the crankshaft and seat on the
machined gasket surface. Insert a feeler gauge between
the cover and cylinder; record the reading.

END PLAY ADJUSTING PROCEDURES FOR VH100
WITH OIL PUMP
If space does not exist between the cover and the
machined gasket surface to allow insertion of the
feeler gauge use a .010 (.254 mm) metal spacer.
The spacer fits between the bearing cup and inside
surface of the cover. More than one may be used if
required.
