Hi. It has 560miles and 50hours on gauge. Is this kind of crank play normal? I just wondered if I should be worried? Edit, its normal

Not sure what your trying to check there, but your not testing any kind of "crank play".

The crank, rods, wrist pins are all on roller bearings....there is no play. If there ever is play, its only going to be there for a few minuets before the motor blows into pieces.

The noise, or movement is coming from your clutch.

No problem. You cant really test anything by turning the clutch like that.

If your worried the engine is worn, you need to do a compression test with a gauge.
