Had brain dump need VE expert

[rlyons]

I guess my age is catching up to me but I need help. :-laf In the VE pump the washers on the rollers under the wobble plate, they are concave on one side and convex on the other, do the washers go with the concave side next to the rollers or away from the rollers? I have forgotten and all the pictures I have are not clear on the proper way to place the washers. I also need the spring that goes between the wobble plate and the shaft if anyone has a junk pump. Mine was missing in action when I took the pump apart. Maybe why I had the rattle in my pump.

Hello,



Check this link out, lots of great pictures, I just took a VE apart yesterday, convex goes to the outside. As per pics in link.

I have that thread also but I couldn't tell for sure and I didn't want to find out the hard way. Thanks for the info, I thought that was the way but I wasn't sure.

Yeah, mine looked to be convex side out, but we better let one of the experts chime in.

I put mine convex side out, and ran it to SOP3. MPGs werent the best, but I just resealed it, no hard parts replaced.



If you tilt the body at about a 45deg angle upon reassembly, it will allow you to keep stuff lined up/ in place more easily than if you put it level or on end.
