Crankwalk reduced?
 

My 2 gen clipse 4g63t is getting a new rebuilt head. Just wondering If any of this work will reduce my chance of getting crankwalk? ( if it ever happens)

thanks man, sorry but I dont know alot about the internal stuff, still gettin there.

RE: Crankwalk reduced?
 

Yeah none of that will at all. Just check your main thrust bearing clearence and make sure its still in spec.

you dont think that the shop will do that?

RE: Crankwalk reduced?
 

No not really. There is a guide online showing you how to do it yourself. And no, the head job wont do a thing for crankwalk.

I have heard that magnus motor sports has what they so far have shown to be a simple solution to the crankwalk BTW. It is not totally proven since we all know it takes some time to develop crankwalk, but they have said by simply putting in the oil squiters from the 1g into the 2g you will reduce your chances of crankwalk. Just a note

Thats only a theory. There is no actual way to prevent yourself from getting it with a 7 bolt. ANY 7 bolt is of high risk of getting crankwalk. There is no telling when this is going to happen but there are symptoms and these can be found all over the internet. There is ways of delaying this process. For example NEVER hold down the clutch when starting the car.
