550 F2 started!
Oddjob:
If no one knows for certain I've got some starters lying around doing nothing, I'll take one apart and let you know.
Did you remove the screw and take out all the insides as well?
Looks to me as 2 smaller washers on the brushes end and the 2 larger on the splined end.
Laverdaroo:
my only point of reference is a chap on the net taking one to bits from a cb750 which is similar.
From what I think , its small washer, castle-ated washer (one with legs on) on the brush end with the legs facing up, then two shim washers on the bottom and the plastic firbre washer thingy against the end cap so that it doesnt ark against the cover????
Ive tried it together several ways always with the lines on the outside to line up and once done up wont rotate so summuts wrong!
cant get me head round it tbh, proper scratcher!
Laverdaroo:
If you would if you get 5 mate that would be brilliant. Sick of swearing at it and the internet is drawing a blank also. Vheers Ken.
Laverdaroo:
Stand down mate, managed to sort it had the shims in the wrong order it appears, anyway, fettled and checked and all good so onto the next part for nannying!
Cheers for the offer Ken.

Managed to finally get out this week after being holed up at home with what was quite a nasty stomach bug, been blowing chunks for days but managed to get out today as feeling slightly better. Basically felt sea sick for three days!
Anyway, manned up and been out collecting bits, posting bits, buying bits etc and took a trip down to DJ Engineering at Keynesham near me to pick up the head and barrels after they got decked out on the mill for me.
The gasket surface were far from good so he’s taken 2 thou of both faces for me so hopefully all being well, I’ll have a go at cleaning the cases up with a view to getting the crank and gearbox in this weekend.
Hooray, something going together finally!
