beardy2000 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I need some help with my b40 engine! Im in the middle of rebuilding my engine and Im not sure about the crank shaft bush in the outer casing. It looks like a steel insert within a piece of rubber and is'nt a very good fit with the crank. Drawings only show an oil seal. Is this correct or has some one played with it? would be very greatful for any info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardy2000 Posted May 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 Hi I still have the problem with my outer casing for the crankshaft. Is it possible to get a bush for the casing if it runs on a bush or is it just ment to be a seal? Could really do with some help as Im dieing to get her fired up again. The engine is an end fed crank gb model. Thank you for any info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beardy2000 Posted May 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hi again! Thank you fot your advice, After finding the time to look at the engine properly I found that it should have a lip seal but the old seal looked very much like it had an insert after being rubbed by the crank. Going back together slowly!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
