Hi Guys,
Making good process on getting the engine cleaned up and tightened so it leaks less (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif). I hadn't planned on removing a heat exchanger, but it was the easiest way to rotate the engine on the stand so I could have easier access to the pushrod tubes. Happy to report that the HE nuts came off pretty easily. But when I looked in the ports, the copper gaskets weren't as clean as I'd expect. Would appreciate it if the brain trust would take a look. I have new copper gaskets, and was thinking I'd "true" up the ports on the HE before replacing. Any tips/thoughts on that? Also, I've read a bunch o' threads on changing the pushrod tube seals, but would appreciate any real-world suggestions. Finally...is it OK to work on the motor upside-down on the stand? All oil has been thoroughly drained. Anything to watch out for there? Thanks!   |
