I finished building my engine, which uses a 2.0 crank in a 1.7 case.
My crank end play is 0.0125 without any shims. I've seen that you should use a minimum of 3 shims, but even a single smallest shim puts me at the edge of spec - 0.0125 - .00945 = 0.003. Is this OK? Did I do something wrong assembling? |

Wow...just checked the type 4 store. You're right...7 bucks each. Sheesh. I wonder what happened to crank those up.
Alright then...Put two of your existing shims in and measure. Calculate the end play with those two shims and subtract .004 thou (your target play). If that number is less than .015 (or .38mm...which is the thickest one available), you may only need to buy one shim, depending on where that number falls in the available thicknesses. Make sense? Depending on what number you come up with, I may have one in my stash that you can have... |
