Just want to double check that I am doing this correctly. I am checking my end play. The engine is assembled. I put a magnetic dial indicator mount on my flywheel and placed the point of the indicator on a parallel flange on the case. I then pulled the flywheel away from the case and took a measurement. Then pushed the flywheel into the case as much as possible and took a measurement. The difference between the two measurements is the end play. Mine was .005.
Does my technique sound correct? Am I missing anything? Is .005 acceptable? Thanks. |

I bolt mine to the case and measure the flywheel.
The acceptable range is .003 to .005 with a wear limit of .006, I always aim for .003 while taking care not to be less than that figure. |
