Re: Flathead Guru's...Question on installing the crankshaft sleeve

Thanks, That's the way I installed it. I've rebuilt quite a few motor and it's usually the little things that stump me.

Re: Flathead Guru's...Question on installing the crankshaft sleeve

Not 100% on this but I believe the top on this pic goes IN towards the crankshaft/slingert.

Flathead Guru's...Question on installing the crankshaft sleeve

For the Guru's........which direction do you install this sleeve? I should have paid attention when I removed it. Notice the offset in the spiral. Installing it either direction will pull oil back...

Re: Silly question: Always replace bearing races when new bearings are installed or

Yea, I'd inspect and re-use if there isn't any noticeable wear or corrosion. The price of new bearings add up pretty quick.

Re: Plugging the fuel pump pushrod without a bushing?

Exactly what I intended to do. 1/4' x 20 at the top for easy removal and a lip so it can't be driven to far. Just wasn't sure if the rear cam bearing needed the oil that come thru the squirt hole in...
