Crankshaft bearing journal repair
Переглядів 440Рік тому
Another repair of a worn out motorcycle crankshaft bearing journal, this is a common issue, and also finding a used crank won't help cause the majority of the crank out there are also undersized and the new bearing will be loose from the start making the situation worse with the use. Hope you enjoy the repair, see you next time ;)

    Good job. Nothing brings out troll comments like turning drums or disks. It’s amazing. You could hand them two turned rotors - one of yours and one done on a brake lathe.

I fully agree with what you say, doing it this way, without the rotor leaving the chuck from start to finish, it's pretty much the same thing, the last step in the process is to light skim the hub contact face, so it's like it was bolted to the brake lathe.

      @themotocrossmodchannelWulfMX Рік тому

      I have researched this as well and all I can find is in relation to fuel in "fluid" form, not gaseous. Since the pressurized gas mixed with air is ignited prior to TDC and don't come into contact with with the surface of the head, I am not sure it would condense. This is of course, a theory and not proven as of yet. I can say that of all the years I have modified engines and polished heads, power valve parts, and exh ports, (basically anything that sees combustion), all it really has done was make for an easier time in servicing the cyl and removing carbon build up and offers no performance gain or performance decrease.

    • @matthewmoilanen787
      @matthewmoilanen787 7 місяців тому

      Ya that's not true and testing has shown that any rough surface in the combustion area is a spot that may cause pre-ignition. Combustion chamber temperatures will also prevent "condensation" of fuel. This heat is also a factor that requires richening of the fuel charge due to heat evaporation losses in the intake tract. This effect is rarely directly adjusted for but done in the overall jetting of that engine.

The little chatters is not a big deal because i'll clean anyway with some emery paper. For the volume also the radius cutter is not really helpful in my case because i don't make maths to calculate the volume, but i measure directly few times in between, and with max 2-3 measurements i reach the desired volume, considering also that almost every head that i machine isn't with a full radius. For the piston dome, yes, using a radius cutter is the way to go. Thanks for your thoughts ;)

      All heads I did so far, I did them with just 2 form tools (plus a facing tool and an ER16 grooving tool to form the O-Ring gland if required), and it worked a lot better than trying to blend a radius between 2 other cuts with a radius cutter. The finishing pass is one move with the compound to set the depth and the angle where the combustion chamber meets the squish band, and then an inward move with the cross slide. You can either face it all the way to the spark plug hole, or leave a protruding spark plug with a small radius around it, for a toroidal shape combustion chamber. If 2 conical surfaces are required I would generally try to get at least one of them from the tool itself, but then the hardest part is to find the proper reference points for measuring while still on the machine, but you can easily get a twin chamber head within 0.1mL of each other just by eyeballing a set of calipers over the features you are machining). Of course my method works better on my 2 ton TOS SN50 (a real monster of a machine, an absolute joy to work on and impressively precise for a 37yo machine, which more than justifies the fact that it's still being produced), but you can break up chatter even in small machines by picking around the shape in different directions, and if I couldn't use a form tool at all, I would rather use a freehand tool rather than a radius cutter for combustion chambers (I have modified combustion chambers even by just holding a freshly faced head with just the squish machined on it on a drill press, and using a hand turning tool with the table as a tool rest, to freehand turn the dome and then blend and polish it with emery, and got some really fantastic results).

      @@marcusbrown2493 A CNC is almost always the most universal in terms of what you can do with the least amount of tooling, but when it comes to having just a manual lathe, and having to turn a dome in a pinch every now an then, I can grind a form tool from a carbon steel planer blade within less than 20 minutes, and it can machine multiple radii and ellipses, blends and angles at once. A single pivot style radius cutter attachment will only work well for cutting a spherical segment, often smaller than a hemisphere when in bore (which is indeed a decent design in some cases), depending on the size and shape of the toolholder, Many, if not most modern, combustion chambers aren't hemispherical anymore and they have either a radius or an elliptical shape, blending a cone with a face around the spark plug (the small part right out of the squish zone is practically just a taper, then there is a blending radius that gets larger as it gets closer to the center of the combustion chamber) PS: Nice work BTW. Most machine shops just nag and refuse to install aluminum sleeves and send them for plating...
