Re: Under cover Resto
First post for the year. Its been a while so, a little update is due. What I have been doing has taken its time and I kept doing it in little bits over Christmas.

Re: Under cover Resto
Just a quick update today. Tried the barrels into the case and a couple the acorn nuts interfere with the fins on the barrels, so a quick grinding and job done. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53295461059_1537c6c273_c.jpg 20231028_162357 by karlhash , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/6553...

Re: Under cover Resto
So, I got a new washer, put a new o ring on and https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53283426600_23072a1248_c.jpg 20231022_121731 by karlhash , on Flickr pants, time for a re assess. I looked at the surface of the case and thought it looked a bit rough, so tried to smooth it as best as I could. This ...

Re: Under cover Resto
Absolutely Niel, I think it took me soooo long to remove the key because of my fear of damaging the crank. Slowly, slowly, catchy monkey. :lol: Next I put the crank case through bolts and acorn nuts on with the washers but without the o rings, so as to torque the case down without damaging the o rin...
