Tappet guide fibre washer

Post by PFN »

Hello.😁
Browsing through the spare parts list. 1941G3L, I notice that there is fibre washer for tappet guides, 35-12-E73. There were no fibre washers attached to the tappet guide, when I disassembled the engine. Where are these washers supposed to be fitted?
I also learned that there is a "distance sleeve" DF-39-8-E191, to be fitted to the exhaust valve assembly. Haven't found that in my engine. Where is this sleeve supposed to be?
Cheers

Maybe these parts were discontinued. What contract number parts list are you looking in? I don't see them in C1050. Check the parts list contract number for your engine. If you are not sure what contract your engine is from, I will check for you, but would need the engine number. The washer was introduced in 1935 on the model 12 250 ( 35-12-E73 ) it may had fitted other engines and years onward. DF -39-8-E91 was introduced 1939 on mod 8, a 500cc, it may had fitted other years, but the model number within the pt.no. usually means that was the smallest c.c. model it fitted.

o.l.Hi Rob.
I think the engine is a replacement part in itself.
Questions is building up. Any thoughts about how long the bronze bushings for the camaxles is supposed to be?

80169 is quite a late WD engine number from Contract No. S4555 I believe. Delivery start date Sept. 1943. I do not have a parts list for that contract.
