Title: Damaged Crankcase
Post by: RTwo on 27 Jul, 2023, 16:33
Hi all

When removing a crankshaft bearing, part of the crankcase also came out  >:(  (very thin at that point)
After looking closely at the damage, I've come to the conclusion that it shouldn't really affect anything.

Thoughts?

it certainly is thin there

but personally, i would get it checked for any hairline crack running away from this area - safe than sorry
