Each gear MUST be shimmed one at a time (start with the middle one), put the mechbox shells back together and put some screws it (two will do), then give each gear a spin to see if they move freely, then check for too much side to side shifting. Once you get the spur (middle gear) shimmed right, move to the sector gear (the one that pulls the piston back), and while keeping the middle gear in place, shim it on the left side so it clears the spur gear teeth (no rubbing), then put the shells back together with screws, spin test and side to side, when good move to the bevel gear (obviously the last one). Generally no shim is placed on the bottom axle of it so it helps mesh with the motor, but do the same shim and test with all the gears in place. All gears should spin freely for a couple turns together, and once that's done you reassemble the mechbox and install. Might take you up to an hour to do a perfect shim job, but it's worth it.
