Let's get into rebuilding the crank, setting the endfloat and having a look at the Carburettor.

The resurrection continues. Well done Dean , really enjoying these videos. That piston looks like it took a fair beating to come out , considering the time spent in the weather it’s not surprising. Take care 👍👍

@@paulhewitt1488 it put up a fight, that's for sure. Best wishes, Dean.

Great video. Incredibly informative and well presented. I wish Grandad could have seen all this. Corrosion certainly done its work there. Entropy. The way of the universe. Good to see you have serviceable ones. Looking forward to the next installment.

@@carlwilson1772 I wish he could have seen it too. It would have been good to save the cases, but 47 years is a long time to be left to the elements. Best wishes, Dean.

@carlwilson1772 Месяц назад

The corrosion on the cases reminds me of the Vulcan at East Fortune. It was very sad to see the sorry state of that aircraft, given that it was a Falklands War hero. Corrosion had really started to bite.

@@carlwilson1772 it's a shame when things are left to rot. Not just for heritage, but for the celebration of the skills it took to make. At least we have a couple of them preserved. I'd really like to get the fracture surface of the case under a microscope, the ferrous infiltration is interesting. I might take it to work and see if I can borrow one.

Thanks Dean another interesting and informative video looking forward to the next one .In the meantime hope all is well with your son and family Cheers Mike

@@user-sj4nn4ig9e thanks Mike. No change unfortunately, we are plodding along. Best wishes, Dean.

@cainbeeping8480 Месяц назад

Sad about the cases but it’s great that you found some used ones.

@retromechanicalengineer Месяц назад

@@cainbeeping8480 it was a shame, I was hoping to save them and I put a lot of effort into trying. Not to be, but we have a way forward. Cheers Cain.

Well done on a tough task many would have just chucked in the scrap bin! ( I know someone would would drag it out again though...). Good update. Regards, Ade.

@@AGEngineering thanks Ade. I'm used to scrap heap challenges! Best wishes, Dean.

Great update Dean thanks very much 😃 Really looking forward to the next episode. As you say, I've got a lot of work to do on the actual bike! Im hoping you might be able to help me out with that a bit as well!
