Hi all ,

I know we have gone over this before but I would like to be sure. The 
crank is set & with a combination of thrust washers I have a .0025 end 
float. The strange thing is if I apply a constant pressure I can get 
another .001 in either direction. If the crank has been levered back 
toward the flywheel and "0" out the dial indicator I can pry the 
indicator back another .001 , as well when I lever it forward I can gain 
another .001 if I apply light pressure. So my minimum clearance is .0025 
& my max would be .0045. I would prefer to keep it at around .003-.004., 
I'm a little confused by the ability to pressure the additional movement.
