[steamwally]

Good luck with the repair, its a fine machine,at least it's open crank; make your job a hell of a lot easier!

For sure, I like the open crank design too.

wow it needs a real good clean looks like crap ew

[SmallEngineMechanic]

That may be, but it runs well enough.

While its partialy apart I will go over it with a soft wire brush and get some of the grime off.

Miked it ?

[SmallEngineMechanic]

I used a micrometer on the crank bearings and the connecting rod bearing to check for low areas on those surfaces that would cause excess wear on the new bearings. Miked = Used Micrometer
