Fixing the how NOT to make an engine
Bernd:
Bogs,
I don't know about the rest of the crew here but I find it a bit hard to read the red comments that you put on your pics. Could you try white or maybe yellow on that background?
By the way I like these bits of repairing an engine. I try to guess about what you are going to do to fix it and have hit about 50% of the time. Keep up the interesting articles.

Will do Bernd, without feedback, things can't be put right. I have changed the above pictures, just for you. :thumbup:

You're not the only one, I am guessing what needs doing next most of the time.
As you can see, lots of little things need to be done before you can do the original fix. That issue is a major problem when working on finished engines made by someone else. That is why they take so long. At every turn, you find another part that needs to be put right or replaced.
I am hoping this has now had most of the critical bad bits put right, and I can get on with rebuilding it.

Great write up again as usual John...
One Q, when drilling the 3 holes in each piece using the RT. I take it that as long as you don't move the mill bed you just drop each piece in, drill, rotate 120 deg, drill etc, and all the parts hole will line up....?
Cool, I wondered how that was done....so simple...as usual..... :doh:
