13. Insert the SST Crankshaft Rotator and
turn the crankshaft clockwise as
instructed on the KDS screen.
NOTICE
Removal of inner wheel liner and
the use of general tools may be
required to access and rotate the
crank bolt on some 2.0L T-GDI
engine models.
14. Initially, the “Value” ‘Max’ reading may
not register when rotating crankshaft.
Continue to rotate the crankshaft slowly.
IMPORTANT
Monitor the displayed reading on
the KDS screen/gauge. Turn the
crankshaft slowly as the value
starts to increase.
15. Once the ‘Max’ value is reached (sample
shows Max: 2.86mm), continue to turn
just past the ‘Max’ value reading and
STOP rotating the crankshaft (sample
shows 2.850mm value decreasing).
Note: The KDS may prompt to rotate the
crankshaft ‘counterclockwise’ if needed.
Select ‘Next’.
16. If TDC setup is completed successfully:
•
DO NOT turn the crankshaft rotator.
•
DO NOT select Start at this time.
STOP on this screen, proceed to step 17
to setup and connect the Engine Bearing
Clearance Tester before continuing to the
KDS.
