Did a crank nut on a 6 banger honda accord. 1/2in drive with a jack tube and I was hanging off it. Not only that, I had 2 or 3 extensions just to get to the nut and they were on a jack stand and a block of wood. The whole thing was twisting 90deg and when that nut broke loose I thought someone fired a gun. POW! I felt it resonate up through my cheater bar and into my arms like a cartoon. Thought I won. Nope, it just moved a little. Reset and did it all again 3 or 4 more times until I could finally move it with just the 1/2in drive. It was also a reverse thread. Glad I got that right the first time.

A tip for the big end caps, pull the bolts out until about an inch is left in, and squeeze them together. This gives some purchase to wiggle and pull with. Also, wiggle in line with the crank (up and down in your vid); you have plenty of leverage in that direction.

I knew of a used car dealer (N.A. Terrebone Motors, Raceland, Louisiana, yes, long out biz) who put paper behind the bearings of an old Chevy (I actually saw him measuring the two types of paper to get the right shim stack). I also saw him brazing the ever-living-f@#& out of another chevy block (he told his mechanic to not bother with anti-freeze/coolant, and it froze enough to blow out the sides of the block) His mechanic refused to do much of what he wanted done to things to sell them on to some sucker. Eventually the Mech found another job.

I've personally polished a 1994 Ford 300 inline 6 crankshaft's rod journals with a shoelace and 2500 grit sandpaper. Then I replaced the rod bearings with standard size stock bearings. Before the operation the engine had zero oil pressure and a collapsed lifter as well as a few rod knocks. Afterwards it had no rod knock but had good oil pressure and the lifter came around after driving it around the trailer park. Guy has put over 10k miles on that truck since. I'm more proud of that truck than anything 😂

Recently i got to the end of travel of an beat up Suzuki sidekick sopedometer, think it was 170 kph and still had 500rpm more on her (that morning I've driven 200km in 4 low on snow over ice, it was a long day). Half an hour later the thing started knocking, no oil. Got to the next city and got me some 2 liters of 20w50 at 2 in the morning, sold in soda bottles in a self service car wash. Still had 700km to the nearest powder snow so in my next questionable decision we kept on going and it gave up in a oil town in the middle of nowhere. Took me 4 days to get a tow consisting of a flatbed trailer pulled by a ford ranger, so plenty of time to talk as it climbed the hills in 2nd. Towing dude told me that he used to work a 80s f100, it started knocking so he dropped the carter, put a strip of gasket maker paper behind the bearing and that Perkins worked two more years

I tried the home-polished crankshaft on a 4G54 that had eliminated a bearing once, back in about 1994. Road car. '83 Dodge Challenger. (Rebadged Mitsubishi Galant.) It lasted about 1000 km. Went to the junkyard and pulled a crank out of another engine that had already been rebuilt, the crank was in pristine condition at 0.25mm under. That "second" build *still* runs great, I just ran it last weekend. Still purrs like a kitten... :)

Sons Mitsubishi l200 after spinning a crank bearing eventually lodged into itself breaking the crank but oversized the bearing cap considerably. Unable to get replacement we decided to grind down the cap legs - where it bolts to block essentially made it shorter we peened the bearing mount block side until you could just feel small resistance when fitted up with crank and bearings in place (no plastic gauge here) was sweet when running. Sold to a family member who said 2 years and it’s still fine on my crazy repair Super happy with that.

Word to the wise on that crank pulley. If you're into it that much then it's a safe bet you're not going to throw the old v belt back on it so cut it to size to protect your pulley so that your pipe wrench isn't chewing up the edges. If it's protruding into the notch then you might wind up chewing up your new belts as it slides into the notch every rotation.

The A model Ford used shimmed bearings but the shims went in between the bearing cap and the block not under the bearing itself because the A model Ford used poured babbit bearings even though a lot of them have underwent conversions to steel shelled bearings you removed shims until the crank began to bind then added one back and that was your running clearance you can also buy oversized bearings for turned down crankshafts I remember when I was a boy and our car got a rod knocking my dad would replace the rod bearings and main bearing while the engine was still in the car just by removing the oil pan and rolling new bearings into the crankshaft and rods using plastii gauge I was so young I didn't know what he was doing at the time but I later became a mechanic myself and I have those memories of watching him do that when I was little we were to poor to afford good cars back then or to pay anyone to work on them for us.
