Managed a couple of hours so cleaned up the sump, still concerned about all the gritty stuff in the water passages of the block so will try a bit more scraping and sucking out the bits with the hoover

looks to me like it saw a lot of white and exposed accordingly, not a fault in the camera, but the user! Regards, John |

Hmmm....could be that but I have tried it with a new battery today and it still looks a bit wishy washy It feels like the flash is not strong enough shame as it has been a good ebay buy for a fiver as it has a lot more controls than my new digi camera a Sony 20Mega pixel device
Any way had a good day at the engine rebuild but nearly had a disaster as the bolts fastening the front bearing did not go in straight 4 of them and they stripped a thread or so out of the crankcase AAAGGGHHH!!! luckily the holes are tapped right through the crankcase and I was able to run the bolt back through and clean up the threads. To prevent this I used three longer bolts to line up the bearing carrier then got 2 of the proper bolts to start properly and when the carrier had got itself in the right approach fitted the other bolts.
Have ordered a cheapy parts washer so I will remove everything from the crankcase cams, bearing, oil pump etc and give it a proper clean

Oh dear back to square one I noticed that my oh so slow engine man had forgotten to put the end plug in the rear of the crankshaft

Hi all
A bit of progress as the marking is finished. Have managed to get the crank in on the front bearing will have a play with getting the rear carrier and bearing in next.

Hi all..any tips to get the rear bearing on? I am loath to start wacking it with the rubber hammer but it is difficult to not get it off centre. The front bearing was the same but by twisting and pushing it went in OKish bit tight, we will have to see what it is like when both bearings are at the party

Bearing wrapped up in aluminum cooking foil and kept in the freezer for some time, hopefully more willing later to be fitted quickly. Andrea
