Which risk increases when unbalanced reciprocating forces act on an engine crankshaft?

💡 Explanation

When unbalanced reciprocating forces act on a crankshaft, increased vibration occurs because the forces are not canceling each other, which causes excessive stress on connecting bearings. Therefore premature bearing wearresults, rather than pre-ignition, valve float or fuel starvation, which require different mechanisms.
