Title: Engine binding up Post by TomPlumber on 12/28/19 at 15:12:11 running into a problem with final engine assembly. The engine turns over perfectly with the starter when the two engine covers are not installed. Once I install either side the engine begins to bind up. Any ideas what could cause this? |

Title: Re: Engine binding up Post by batman on 12/28/19 at 15:31:14 What repairs did you do ? for the right side I would suspect the clutch /clutch rod- cam . on the left side proper placement of the washers on the starter idler gear shafts . |

Title: Re: Engine binding up Post by badwolf on 12/28/19 at 15:34:58 Check the exploded parts diagram to see that you have all the shim washers in the proper places. Try taking off just one side at a time to pinpoint the issue. My guess is the left side, the stator is a strong magnet and can move washers around while installing it. If that is what happened, try a little grease on the washers to ''glue'' them in place during assembly. good luck! |

Title: Re: Engine binding up Post by TomPlumber on 12/28/19 at 15:55:23 Thanks. I did not split the cases. Top end and clutch rebuild. Cannot find good exploded view of magneto side to see if I have starter gear oriented correctly and location of washer |
