Hi World,
I added the shims to my 2056 I took out of the engine to get a base line. Same crank and shims but new bearings. So cleaned the shims and installed new Flywheel WO seal and clean shims. tight or just right? Do I hose the lube out with brake clean( dry bearing)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiM03KJbUhk Please advise -Best Robert |

Tolerance is .003 to .006"
Lube shouldn't make a difference. That extra .001" you see prying with a screwdriver, you're actually bending the crank /flywheel ever so slightly. Don't do that. |
