Which risk increases when improperly torqued connecting rod bolts cause excessive play in a high-performance engine’s crankshaft main bearings?

💡 Explanation

Excessive crankshaft play can lead to higher amplitude torsional vibrations; this is because reduced constraint allows increased shaft deflection. Therefore, torsional resonance increase is the risk, rather than oil viscosity variation, which is related to increased temperatures.
