Hey,
Have some quick questions about an ATC 200 crankshaft. These are most likely stupid questions, but please bear with me.
First question: Rust on the crankshaft. Seems to be minor pitting on the end that connects to the stator. See image:
192813
Is this fine? Worth removing and if so, how?
Second Question: I was originally planning on getting new bearings, con-rod and crank-pin rebuilt on this crankshaft. I already have all of the parts for the shop, but everything seems really solid.. I mean there seems to be absolutely no play in any bearings or anything else. Would you still recommend rebuilding the crankshaft?
Lastly: If getting the crankshaft rebuilt, is it worth it to also have the timing sprocket replaced too?
Thanks in advance,
Nate
