RMweb Gold Barry Ten Posted March 15, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15, 2015 I find myself running out of those little washers that are used to retain coupling rods on Romford/Markits crankpins. I'd like to order a supply of spares, but I see both washers and bushes listed in various places, but I'm not sure if they are the same thing. Can anyone clarify?

Bruciethefish Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 You've opened a bit of a can of worms here... Markits do a 'Deluxe' threaded crankpin, which has a replaceable bush, upon which the rod runs, as opposed to the standard crankpin which the rods run on directly.. They supply both spacing washers, & the thick ones that come in the pack with the pins.. To be honest, the brass spacing washers are just as good as the thick ones for retaining rods on pins, though they might be a slightly larger diameter...

RMweb Gold Barry Ten Posted March 15, 2015 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15, 2015 Thanks for that. I'm also after a general purpose spacing washer for use between valve gear elements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
