Twisted crankshaft on 98 DT150

[blandfordjr]

I live in Pittsburgh and having trouble finding someone that can fix a twisted crankshaft on my 98 DT150. Anyone know a mechanic in the region that can fix it? I'm willing to drive 5 or 6 hours

What makes you think it's twisted?
I'm not sure if any of the machine shops have the attachments for resetting cranks?

I've been trying to get one rod replaced on my motor.

Post back when able.

The mechanic I took it to did a fly wheel test as suggested by by the techs at Suzuki. It showed 3 teeth off and that was the diagnosis

Did you check the key in the shaft under the flywheel?
They have caused problems like this too.

Good luck.

Did you have the key in the crankshaft replaced?

Still waiting to hear back?

Good luck.
