Medicine_Man Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Well finally managed to find a weekend to dig out my 5K from up the back shed, It has been sitting there for numerous years now... Also raped the pushrods out of the A12 motor we had sitting there for my solid lifter conversion. Found the rings were rusted in the bores and it wouldn't turn over at first. Let the bores soak with some Inox and kept hammering the crank back and forward till she gave in. Managed to pull it down a bit and got it on the engine stand and gave it a good degreasing too..
