Right now I have 2x1mm 30x52mm oil slingers on the flywheel side.
Bearing "opening" is 52mm so the slinger barely covers the opening. Picture 1
On the link you gave earlier they offer 30x42. So OD is a bit small. Will it work?
The ones from the engine have a rough surface and there is 2. Picture 2
Can I still use them as they are larger or is it better to use a single piece, smooth although smaller?
On the timing side, the bearing is thicker than the shaft it rides so adding an oil slinger would take it off the shaft even more. Picture 3
Is it acceptable?
I can get a 25x35 slinger, with a bearing opening of 47mm !? Is it better than none?
Now inside the timing case, I had a real bad shaped shim/Washer/piece of garbage bent(!) to be roughly 3mm thick. Picture 4
Do I need it? Shaft here is 19mm and I could get a 20x28
How large and how thick I want it??
Now If we can use oil slinger of different thickness, why would one bother with inserting shims behind the bearing(s)? Isn't it more simple to ajust via the slingers?
Which brings me back to the same question, what are the required tolerances as thick shims/washers comes in 0,5mm increments?
Or shoudl I source other more size suited shims and slingers?
