Bearing Axial Clearance Check

  1. Attach a dial indicator with tip of indicator against end of shaft. Manually move shaft in one direction as far as possible and zero dial indicator.
  2. Move shaft in extreme opposite direction (without rotating shaft) and observe dial indicator.
  3. Rotate shaft 90° and check bearing clearance again. If bearing axial clearance is greater than .0012-.0031" (.03-.08 mm), replace turbocharger assembly.
