This'll be short, because I've attempted to post and it keeps nuking me when I submit.

Third item from the left does not seem to fit in this equation, but I've kept them together since disassembly. Where does it go?

Y=x^2+1x-7

that's not helping Qarl!

Ah......between the 2nd & 4th. I love a good mystery

Are you trying to post a pic, Steve?

We'd llike to provide real help, but we don't know what you're talking about.

Try making sure your pics are around 800x600 or 640x480. Make sure it is a .jpg or a .gif

File size should be less than 300k (or there abouts)

Yes JP. It'll turn out to be real stupid though. I'm putting my oil seal, impeller hub, locking plate, washer and bolt together and I have an "extra" part that I can't figure out where to put. It's a circular tube if you will that's about 7/8" in diam and 5/16" long, split longitudinaly. Just doesn't seem to fit in there.

I'll try posting again. Very frustrating, it's just a 150kb image...

....and when you are ready, hit "add reply" NOT "preview post"

again. Just don't tell me it goes on the inside of the case!!!

Sorry, I dunno dick bout 4poopers....cept they sound like tractors

HAY, we need a t-4 wonk in here!!

Bummer. Any other takers? I don't want to cross post.

THis is for the '75 1911

Ummm... that thing goes in the other end of the crankshaft.

It's a spacer to hold the pilot bearing out in the flywheel.

are you kidding me? I'lllook it up then.

It's no shit, Sherlock!

Uhh...I guess your attempting humor?

I just dont see it diagramed clearly anywhere. It looks though like it may go in the fly end of the crank under the #1 Main? Am I getting warm?

oh boy, don't you hate it when that happens???

can't help you with that part tho ...
Andy

Relax. It goes in the end of the crank. You can install it at any time BEFORE the flywheel goes on.


B

Ahh..B...The voice of reason. THanks dude.

I get to pull the fly off again though. Practice makes perfect right?

Most machine shops dont pull them out.. I'm surprised you have it in hand.

Hopefully you didnt torque down the flywheel.


B

why? i did. Just didn't know I was missing something.

It's not real good to reuse the lock plate after torquing the flywheel bolts down to it. I should'NT say this in public... but flip it over when you go back together.


B

now that i think about it, I was wondering what kept the pilot bearing from moving around. Now I know.

Did you also install the felt washer when you installed the lock plate ??


B

sho' nuff

T’was a lame attempt at humour.

Why doesn’t anyone believe me, I only build/machine engines for a living.

A lot of good machinists take every little thing apart, it's the only way to clean things 100%.

Maybe because you're a Canadian, eh?
I won't go on the the whores & hockey players thang.

whores & hockey players !!!

That joke is as old as... well... JP!
