Getting ahead of myself I decided to dry-fit the powervalves into one of the cylinders to see if I could remember how it's done and I've run into an issue that might be staring me right in the face...

All the pieces...in order as the parts manual but that round (not oval) washer has to be between the two brackets...



RC valves in position...best to insert from the front here...


Special clip attached.


Then with the collar first the shaft slides into the cylinder and valves noting that the widest gap between the teeth is at the top....




The 'old' o-ring installed just for dry fitting...[img][/img]


First plate bolted in..then the oval washer fits over the shaft...


..then (what I call) the adjuster plate...and I think you can tell here even with a (round)washer in place...the nut will not snug up to the plate and this plate will be loose....and I don't remember it being like that.


It looks like it needs another oval washer...not only the one in between the plates...but one on top of the adjuster plate..


..which is lucky because CMSNL have them...but it's not how it was dismantled...or how it's depicted in the parts catalogue...my first instinct is operator error...I think I must be doing something wrong....whatever I'm going to tidy up and start on the motor...
