Default engine vibration after prop strike?

take the prop and prop nut off.

take out the glow plug. (reduces resistance by compression)


now rotate the engine and see if the tip of the crank moves side to side at all. if you cant see any diffrence then its probably not bent, or not bent enough to worry about.

also check to see if the crank is tight as a worn bushing can cause vibration too.
