## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   End faces worn, burred or picked up
-   Crushed or collapsed after being over-tightened
-   Play in the assembly it is meant to hold spaced
-   Corrosion binding it to the shaft or bolt it sits on

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   A spacer tube sets a dimension — it holds a bearing, bush or bracket at the correct distance, so its length is a functional measurement and nothing may be substituted for it
-   Check both ends are square, clean and undamaged before fitting; a burred or bell-mouthed end effectively shortens the spacer and lets the joint relax in service
-   Renew any spacer that is crushed, cracked, bowed or heavily scored — a collapsed spacer shows up as a fastener that keeps losing its tightness or a bearing that runs with play
-   Fit it the right way round where the ends differ, and make sure it is actually in the joint before the fastener is tightened; nothing in the torque reading will tell you it has been left out
-   Tighten the fastener that clamps through it to the figure and sequence given in the workshop manual for your engine
