A few possibilities: Insuffficient gland nut torque Dowel holes elongated, burred, not deep enough... Crankshaft and flywheel not both of the O-ring style, or crankshaft and flywheel not both of the non O-ring style. Gasket used with O-ring style crank/flywheel, or O-ring used with gasket style crank/flywheel. Wrong size main bearing, either ID, OD, or thrust Main bearing loose in case, causing misleading end play readings Wrong shim washers (O-ring vs non O-ring style) used I think the range for end play is .003-.006" and I usually shoot for .004". - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
