Evening Lads

A wee bit done to the motor , pressed off the bearings .

Ground the shaft end parallel with the good old tool post grinder



And pressed one of the new bearings back on the shaft .

Now when I removed the motor fan cover one of the wee screw heads sheared off .

Well corroded in as per with ally and steel . A bit of heat needed ,for jobs like this I use a heat gun .waist of time trying to use penetrating oil at this point .

File a couple of flats on the screw if poss , don't cut a slot for a screwdriver or you will be getting the drill out , warm the ally part up , just wiggle the screw back and forth to crack the bond once its loose a bit then spay some penetrating oil on . been using this method for yonks on motor bike and outboard engines .
