Hi Silver, This should help. I didn't compare the different pages to see what the differences were.

Thank you both for your information, that's a great help. Makes it easy to buy a membership with great folks like you around.

Because the seals in the head are leaking oil onto the ground, would the removal of a shim or two (2J3861) and re tightening possibly be enough to re seal the packing?

Yes, removing shims will allow further compression of the chevron packing. Does depend on how worn and how hard the packing is.

Hi Team,
scan from a Serv Mag of the day details the procedure--printing the scan may make it more readable.
Cheers,

That's good stuff. Thank you
