The answer... A 'walking' crankshaft is a crankshaft that moves too much inside the engine. This is also known as excessive thrust bearing play. The movement is usually due to the crankshaft not fitting inside its bearings correctly. While not bad for the crankshaft, the movement can place excessive or uneven loads on the bearings, causing premature failures.

I remember someone once saying that there had been ONE instance, but I'm pretty sure they got rid of at least that... Now if they could only fix all the other Evo problems, hopefully they did for your IX
