I've had the engine out of the car to fix some oil leaks and upon removing the flywheel, there was only two shims, and one of them was just about destroyed. Does anyone see anything wrong with this pic? (besides the oil everywhere!)

I don't know... Maybe only two shims! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I can't really tell anything from the picture, but I would definitely be checking endplay at this point and subtracting the two shims to see where you're at. However, you should always have three, so you should take your measurements and order those now. My guess is your endplay is excessive right now due to the lacking shim and that's why the one is 'almost destroyed'. I don't really know what your question is. You seem to know already that this is wrong.
