| Post subject: | Primary Gear Bronze washer |
i have just put a new primary gear bronze washer on my 1275, but it was a rather tight fit, and now that its on it wont spin around. Does this matter? i tried to take it off but i dont think it gonna come off to easy. i also put the washers inner 45 degree angled side facing towards the block, is this correct? i have a end float of .003 which is fine the book says between .003 - .006 but i hear you can run up to .010 |

The bronze washer doesn't have to spin, it probably will though when it's had a few heat cycles. Chamfer facing towards the block is correct. .003" primary gear endfloat is good, over .006" is a worry, you do NOT want .010" on a rebuild. The clearance will increase soon enough...

this may sound stupid but how does the primary gear work, i assume it transfers all the power from the engine through the idler gear into gearbox, but the primary gear just spins around on the crank. |

The clutch (when engaged) locks it to the crank. |
