Hi Jake
I didn"t see a reason to take the thermostat housing off, so it"s
still on there. However, I did break one of the bolts that holds
one of the heat shields on, and one of the radiator support
bracket bolts. I wimped out and left the exhaust manifold on so
the machine shop can mess with it. Must be that durn metric
hardware!
I"m not so worried about the gear lash in the oil pump idler, but
the radial play in the bushing. I"m just guessing, but I bet there"s
.060 of slop in the bushing. The pump shaft seems fine.
By the way, what"s a good way to get the old sleeve off of the
crankshaft, and where do I get the tool for installing the new
one? I"ll talk to my CIH dealer to see if they"ll lend it to me. I
spend thousands there every year on parts, so they might help
me out.
I"m kind of planning on taking that cam out on Saturday, so I"ll
be looking around for a piece of PVC or something suitable. I
really do appreciate being able to talk to someone who"s been in
there before. I"m pretty mechanically saavy, but if I worry too
much about something I"ve not done before, I can get
hamstrung.
Paul
