Default Re: Oil slinger, crank snout, crank sleeve.

This sleeve thing just spins. I spin it with my finger and it continues to spin for about 2 seconds. It doesn’t seem right.

Sadly the reproduction sleeve internal dimension is to big your not the first to find this out it would be nice if they were actually machined correctly but as you see thats not the case. The sleeve should be a shrink fit so it stays in place. If it was me I would request a return and refund.
