Function of the Crankshaft

The crankshaft is the backbone of the engine, converting the linear force of the pistons into rotational motion that ultimately drives the wheels. It must withstand tremendous torsional forces while spinning at thousands of revolutions per minute. A damaged crankshaft causes engine vibration, knocking, bearing failure, and complete loss of power. Crankshaft replacement is a major engine repair that requires full disassembly of the bottom end.
