I finally got my son over to help me set my crank end play. Bolted up the flywheel with the original shims under it and for the life of me we can't get the crank to slide at all. I'm pretty sure that it is supposed to be .003-.005. What is the best way to push and pull to get it to move?
Thanks |

Remove all the shims, bolt up the flywheel, and measure endplay. Then install the correct thickness of shims (should use 2 thick, and one thinner - the thinner one being the one that you can buy in different thickness) to give you the specified endplay.
It's just easier to measure without shims when the crank/flywheel moves more. Demick |
