3. Turn the shaft until balancer counter weights clear the
crankshaft and remove the balancer shaft from the
crankcase.
4. Inspect the balancer drive gear and pump shaft drive gear.
5. Replace the shaft if gear teeth are abnormally worn or
damaged.
6. Inspect the balancer shaft bearings.
NOTE: Due to extremely close tolerances and minimal
wear, the balancer shaft ball bearings must be inspected
visually and by feel. Look for signs of discoloration,
scoring or galling. Turn the inner race of each bearing.
The bearings should turn smoothly and quietly. The outer
race of each bearing should fit tightly in the crankcase.
The inner race should be firm with minimal side to side
movement and no detectable up and down movement.
