Tecumseh use to offer crankshaft shims. But I have not been able to find them in years.
You can get crank shims for Briggs racing engines fairly cheap.
Check with [b:4205e8b99e]Mile High PowerSports[/b:4205e8b99e] for 5[b:4205e8b99e]55652 Crankshaft Endplay Shims[/b:4205e8b99e]
or
[b:4205e8b99e]Rieken's Racing[/b:4205e8b99e] for [b:4205e8b99e]Part# '555652'[/b:4205e8b99e].
Cant say if they will work. But with them being cheap for a set. I would not hurt to try.

You can still download the manual for older Tecumseh engines from several websites.
It includes overhaul procedures and specifications.
