In my over zealous clean up operation of spilt coolant, oil etc on the cardboard and blanket under my car on engine removal (removed timing cover and pulley while in situ) & everyday work distractions I have lost my crankshaft spacer that sits between the front pulley and oil pump gears furious the bins have already been emptied so its long gone eek can anyone oblige please? wink

Bloody 'ell I remember that! As a consequence I later had a 1960 Vauxhall Velox [wrap around screen, 'knee breaker'] with a small block Ford V8.

Think I must have one in a drawer somewhere.

Just escaping my newborn daughter for an early hours garage session shortly (only way I can make any progress with projects these days). Will check.

I don't think that washer is what Simon is asking for...

That doesn't fit between the oil pump gear and damper.....

Correct again wink I see something drop under the car when the front cover was removed and presumed it was said spacer scratchchin it was not after trial fitting the crank up this morning to CC pistons and deck rolleyes I can only assume it was my dizzy bung because that's now AWOL. So for today the plum award goes to Simon/Me loser
