"I'd be concerned about any metallic particles finding their way down into the crankcase"

Dave,
Yes, I'm concerned too. Hopeful that whatever made it's way into the sump(pan) didn't go further with the limited running time the engine did. Plan to drain the oil and then flush the sump with kerosene before refilling with fresh oil. Hadn't planned on an oil change but if it has to be, it has to be.

Nonsense.
The 110 cover is the same as the 120 cover. More specifically, see 5.0800 304267. The only "different" 6/120 cover would be from a '35-120 which has a thinner timing chain/gear setup, and I don't know for certain what the specific difference is in the cover, and I would think it would be more than a few thousands different and would not have fit upon assembly.
Please advise specific point of measurement, preferably in inches. I have a nice fresh cover here....as I would think many folks would, should not need to ship one over? Check with King or Dosser?

David,

Great minds think alike, so it seems. I've been in contact with one Peter Packard and like you we were pouring over the 35-41 Parts List and the 41-47 Clipper Parts List. We also identified that the difference in covers, and chains for that matter, are for the 120 and 120B's. All others whether for 245(Six) or 282(Eight) are the same. Looks like it's just my luck that I've ended up with an early 120 cover. Also believe that our mutual friend has been in close contact with you about this matter, your offer of a timing case cover is most gratefully accepted gracious. However I'm also exploring other avenues, with the same said Peter Packard calling in here on Monday on his trip north. Peter will have another cover with him which may be of use once measurement confirms it to be the "right" size. My measurements, on the cam gear side of the cover see the photos, show the thin cover as 33 mm = 1&5/16" and the fat cover as 38 mm = 1&1/2", and I've excluded the parallax error apparent in the photos!

Mal; I think it would be a very good idea to remove the oil pan and clean it and the the oil pickup, You should be able to remove the cover and clean the screen. If any of the metal from the first cover or the replacement cover get to the crank you will have major problems. If you think the engine is hard to turn over-take it apart as it is to late. I don't want to predict doom but metal shavings and bearing don't mix. Sorry to see your problems Dell

Jon,

I know it's the right thing to do but I don't want to!

Rolls around the floor screaming and kicking like a two year old!!


However, I will do it! I'd never be able to drive the Coupe again without constantly worrying there was going to be an engine catastrophe

Peter, looking forward to seeing Ann and yourself on Monday.

Besides, I'm over the tantrum now, just sitting in the corner quietly sucking my thumb!

The Flackmaster said "should not need to ship one over? Check with King or Dosser" and lo and behold one pepepackard, aka Dosser, calls me. Pepe tells me he has about 10 to 12 timing case covers! But with Peter Packard delivering a cover on Monday I had no need for one of Pepe's covers although it's good to know they are available!

Next day Wade calls to ask if I'm still "sitting in the corner quietly sucking my thumb" to which I was able to reply, no! Wade's coming to the party with a new sump gasket and another front crankshaft seal, the previous seal having been squashed by the earlier and thinner timing case cover. Will pick these up when our paths cross at Bathurst where our Packard club is having a weekend run 11/12/13 September.

Gee, it's good to have Packard friends!

Friends are nice and I still continue to be amazed that in a country so far far away from where Packard came from there are so many Packard parts that seem to be available with a phone call -- and what you don't have so many times you seem to be able to make a perfectly adequate substitute from the least likely item.
