Well I finally got all the pieces for the rebuild.Yesterday Joe(Redneck Racer) came over,we planed to check the deck height.We put the crank in(those bearing pins are hard to line up).The rear main seemed real tight,finally got the dowel pin right and the crank turns freely.For the mock up I put the other case half on and tighted it up,now the crank won`t turn at all.Joe thinks I need line boreing.Let me say that this engine spun the rear main and cooked # 3 piston.Anyone out there have any thoughts. Am I doing something wrong.

QUOTE(Jake Raby @ May 28 2007, 06:38 PM)  It sounds to me like you may have "missed a pin" when you installed the crank.. IF you had my video I would have shown you the easy way to keep from doing this.... The video makes the assembly much faster and takes a lot of guesswork away. the first time i put my 2056 together i missed a pin the only way it would turn was to grab the impeller with gloves and put all my stregnth into turning it. i changed it and reassembeled and then it turned with one hand like nothing at all. id check the bearings. those are a bitch. jake's video does help even though it dosent mention tapping and plugging the oil gallies. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) jake when does 'blow it up' premire? |
