Folks,
I have an old ST-2500 glow engine that I rebuilt a few years back.

I recently swapped props and upon tightening the prop I noticed I could no longer turn the engine over. I suspected front bearing had collapsed but upon pulling the engine down found it was the thrust washer behind the front bearing that had failed and was in several pieces.

Photos attached.


I'm trying to get hold of the part 22222006 but unable to locate any. Are you able to assist?



Regards
Peter

That part was unique to that older series of engines, and was discontinued in 2008. You will likely have to make one or have one made. It's a simple steel shim.

it is brass actually.

What about complete crank shafts as these came with the washer in the bag. Aany of those about?

OK, we see what part you need. The one that's aft of the front bearing, not in front of it. We'd have zero parts at this time, and while we're expecting to be getting things by the end of the year, that one won't be coming because its engine series is long discontinued.

that is a bugger.

Thank goodness for fleabay I managed to get a complete new in pack crankshaft with the washer for $55.95 USD including post to Australia.

Expensive little washer!
