[T3] End Play...

[JaransonT3@aol.com]

With all the recent discussion about crankshaft end play, I want to make sure 
that I get this right.

I just measured the endplay on my 66 1600 and it is .008" - a bit outside the 
spec of .0028 - .005".  If I understand my Bently manual right I can add a 
thicker shim to get it into spec, assuming of course that I don't already 
have the thickest shims in there.  Is this right? 

I am going to pull the flywheel again and check the thickness of the shims 
that are in there now.  I will figure out what I need for additional 
thickness.  Can I use the shims that are in my 71 1600 Automatic motor for 
now.  I don't have anyu other shims around and I only have the dial indicator 
for tonight.

Thanks for the help....
