>While we're on this thread, and since I am in the process or redoing a motor of unknown history. The aluminum fan housing was put together using the bolts sometimes with cerrated washers and flat washers, and sometimes with only cerrated or flat washer. So, what is the correct way here to avoid the thing coming apart? both washers? shall I add also a lock washer and use Locktite? > On my '63 engine, the 2 halves of the aluminum shroud were held together with bolts & serrated washers and the black metal shroud was bolted on with bolts & flat washers. This is exclusing the larger bolt for the "handle". That had 1 small and 1 large flat washer. It had never been apart before I disassembled it. -- Everett Barnes '63 361, '66 343 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
