Wrong KDP kit?
Well while I have my motor out I was gonna ge ahead and tab my kdp so I went ahead and got the kit with the egg shaped washer (not sure if thats how they all are). As I went to install it I come up on a pretty big problem :'(. In my instructions it shows the casing to have the same contour as the egg shaped washer... however... my casing has a raised portion surrounding the KDP itself. So I came to the conclusion that if I did install the washer I would not be able to get it good and tight and I would have at least a 1/4 inch gap untill the bolt itself even touched the housing :'(. Any how I did some "cheap" KDP tabbin while I had it off and I guess I will send the kit back ???. That is unless any of yall have come across the same problem ???.Please let me know what yall think because my motor should be goin back in tommorow 8).
Thanks Scott |
Re:Wrong KDP kit?
Sounds like you might have the new casing. They added a shoulder on the hole so the KDP can't work it's way out. If you can't push the KDP completely through the hole in the casing then you don't need the tab.
