now the enginehead is done I could start on the crankshaft. when I drained the oilpan there was some slutch in it, so that needs cleaning. I opened the rod bearing caps and took out all of the 6 pistons and checked them for wear.
as you can see the no 3 piston rod is bent a little ?
there was nothing else bent or damaged luckely. after the pistons were out it was the turn of the crankshaft to come out, so when it was out I could check it to and there was a little bit of wear on the main bearings so that means up to the machineshop with the shaft for some new bearings.so I took the flighwheel of the shaft after I marked the two first so I can put it back ad the same position. I found a machineshop near my house which could turn off the crankshaft to the new size. after some mesurements it was found that the shaft was still the standard size and have to be turned off to the size 010". so the next thing for me is to find some new bearings.
when I have them he can start the work on the shaft.
so up on the internet.
