Type 3 Crankshaft Pulley Gasket
type3user - September 18th, 2018 at 07:08 PM

I am putting my T3 fan together. What is the function of the gasket between the pulley and the fan? I am finding hard to get one so figure I may cut one myself. Anyone have any idea of the thickness of the paper gasket?

Feedback appreciated

They are not that thick, about the same as a sheet of A4 paper.

Oil can travel down the keyway on the main fan and get out between the pulley and the fan. It happened to me when I forgot to put one in.

Around 0.25mm

If you want one let me know I have a few laying around. All it will cost me is a stamp, PM your details if so and one is on the way.

It's in the post Terry, being Aust Post you should get it in the next couple of weeks- whoops perhaps mid week. Cheers Les
