Do I have to replace the entire crankshaft was created by AaronD24
The pin on my crankshaft that my timing advancer sits on broke. Do I have to replace the entire crankshaft? And if so what else do I have to get when I replace it. Can I use my original rods and main bearing chain?

Unless I'm missing something that pin is a replaceable part per the Kawasaki parts fishe. Try looking it up.

If you can't easily remove it take it to a machinist and have him remove and replace it. You do NOT want to do anything that enlarges the hole. It is a "spring pin" and it is still available. Ed
