Got a technical question for those who own a O.S .18 CV-RX engine.

Brand new O.S engine...

I've taken all the parts off the T-15 engine, flywheel etc.

Out of the box the O.S engine has a piece of round metal on it that covered the bearing (circled in red). Does this stay on the engine shaft? Or have I done this correctly and taken it off, and placed the brass cup (along with the small black plastic washer) directly over the engine shaft, covering the bearing?

Thanks. It's probably wrong, knowing me!

You are right, leave that piece off, slide your brass collar on the shaft then your flywheel, make sure it is seated on that collar pretty good. You should not be able to spin your flywheel without turning your motor.
