2015 E-tec Crank and Primary Runout Limits?

[tex78]

I here you but you always have a risk of that happening anytime your out there. But I guess it's nice and a good idea to minimize that.

Yep, from crashing, to fallen apart ect, no start, no run

It all could and does happen


Just never know

 

[RGM]

May be yes lol

I took it in and got pistons done, got dealer to check before it came apart

Had pistons done on mine at about 10,000km and told the dealer runout was .010 at about 14,000KM and said I wanted a new motor. While he was trying to get one from BRP it blew at 15,000Km. I was waaaay back but managed to limp out on one cylinder.

Ya, it's still the same so far so I'm going to keep rolling as long as the snow keeps coming

There all . 0024 thou, on crank nose max


Mag side I'm not sure

LMAO!!!!!!!!!! you should see what I just pulled apart!!!!!!!!!!!!

In a 180deg sweep i got .012'!!!!!!!!!!!!! Motor has 5000km and blew one belt!!!!!!!!!!

 

[tex78]

I did hear that brp was going to or did up it to 0.0055, so 5.5 tho which is retarded

Think of 5.5 tho at 8000 rpm wobbling around, total insane

Going bring this one back up.... just checked my 14 xmx 800 etec and this was the reading I got, which would be .002 and change if I understand the gauge correctly.

.0024 is what my shop manual says from the 2014 edition.

Sled has 3100 miles has seen nothing but shell premium in sask, with some marked premium in BC and Amsoil interceptor.

pull that bearing cap and replace the isoflex and let er buck

That's exactly what I just did, however... I was less than enthused at what I found.... is that all rust ?

Sled hasnt ran since may, and put it through the Etec oil fogging process.

Grease is a bad colour that's for sure . I have never seen that.

 

[tex78]

Seen it lots

Can't find pics I had a few years ago, from a few pteks with same thing

Dig out as much as ya can and pack her full

That's what I did, any thoughts on why it turns dark brown/red? Grease breaking down?

I had a blown belt beat that seal up pretty bad the second season I had the sled. I replaced the seal and repacked the bearing with Isoflex then and the grease inside was just white and grey/black, nothing that looked like this.

It's all from heat and sitting

Longer it sits, worse it gets lol

Hot - cold Grease has moisture in it no matter what

 

[Cableguy]

isoflex the best option for grease??
should or can a guy do the mag side as well or more work??

Mag side can spit Grease out too

But that's a big job to do it, and there's not that much really there

I believe that you are 20 thou. That is if you set the gauge at zero....

In a full rotation of the crank, the need goes no lower than zero, and no higher than the picture you see there.

Put a fork in it. It's done.
