Subject:2.1L( 2wd) crankshaft shims, help
From:Ken Lewis
Date:Fri, 26 Jul 2002 18:55:31 -0400

Greetings;
        Spent the last hour searching the archives, to no avail.  Bentley
shows three shims A,B & C. A(the one with the tab) obviously  goes on the
inside of the main bearing. The three C shims must go on the outside of
the main bearing so you can adjust endplay without splitting the case.
But what about shim labeled B? Does it go on the inside or outside? ALso
Bentley shows it as having a much larger diameter, does it always? I have
four shims of equal diameter in the bag of parts.

TIA
