S202 OM605 build .
So this weekend I put the new elements in . Also phased the pump . the method was rather unorthodox, but working . I assembled the pump without delivery valves, and pressurized it with a simple fuel pump . The angles were measured with a digital protractor . I managed to get everything within about 0.5 degrees . The conditions are far from sterile but I expect thing to work out alright .
Pictures as follows :
7.7mm elements (I got a very good deal on them )
The rear bearing was shot, so that got replaced (it's a 6204)
The space between the element fingers (or whatever you call them ) was set to exact measurement with a gauge block .
This will later be set on the stand, but I expect a goot starting point .
Made a simple tool for the rear nut .
And this is how I "phased" the pump . Quite sketchy .
