I think I have been here before a few years ago but have not found the post with the search function
In any case I did not solve it as now as I complete a big rebuild of my engine I face the problem again
when I do up the outer flywheel nut to compress the 4 springs they cant over and deform
looking at other pictures on this forum of EW clutches I begin to think have incorrect components
the retainer on the clutch is just a collar should it have two indents?
the retainer under the nut has no indents should it? and as can be seen by the yellow lines it has a bigger central hole than the nut centre
You can see by the springs that they are deformed by the closing of the nut
