I am looking at a small continental tapered crank. The number on it is 530196-A1. Is this a A65 or C85 crank (or both)? Also, what is the standard size for the journals?
Thanks ever so much,
Mike
Small Continental Crank?
Re: Small Continental Crank?
My parts book shows the 530196-A1 for the C75 and C85. The parts interchangeability catalogue shows the same part number for the A65 engine.
The overhaul manual shows the main journal size as 1.872 minimum, 1.8730 maximum. 1.870 is the "service maximum" but crankshafts can be ground .010 under the new shaft limit.
Here is a link to Harry Fenton's page with a wealth of information about these small engines.

Re: Small Continental Crank?
Anybody know what the rod journal standard size of a C85 crank is?
