OS50 SXh Crank moving...???
have a os 50 sxh and when I hold the engine in my left hand and then pull on the crank nut with my right hand I can move the crank back and forth about 2/16". That can't be right or normal; I am not sure, which is why I am asking. Don't want this thing to blow mid flight.

When you tighten the fan/clutch there wont be any play.

No woodruff key or washer is used between the fan and motor. Pressure will keep it in place. Remember to put a dab of blue locktite in the prop nut when you tighten it.
