ONAN ENGINE REPAIR (part 2) 

It's amazing that it could have that much metal crunched up inside it and still be rebuildable. You guys are really moving along with it...won't be long now.

You're Wise beyond your years Grasshopper!!☺

Love the vids with mike and the crew

very nice, coming along great

Even when you have the part you need in your hand they still don't know what you're talking about!!☺

Your're sailing through that job :)

Thanks!! Yeah they're the best!!☺

Thanks Tom!! Yeah they got real lucky, everything went well !!☺

please tell me you didn't finish the water cooled brings going and I missed it?

What did you guys use to get the crank gear off? I had to fab a plate, couldn't get a puller in behind it. Looks like you guys are doing a great job. I've always thought Onan's looked like an old Lycoming engine out of planes. Don't rush with that Onan! And they are a 20º tdc motor, Mike is right.

You know on the old lawnboys, they have a mechanical timing advance when the engines below 1000 rpm so basically for starting the ignition timing is set at 6* BTDC and when its running above 1000 rpm its mechanically adjusts to 26* BTDC. Learned that one in my small engines course buddy :D!

Thanks Kay!! It's outta Lil' Racers Lawn Tractor!!☺

Thanks Dizz!!☺

Thanks Mate!!☺

Thanks for watching Bud!!☺

Looking good boys... don't let RoadKing get in your way eh!!

I think that's the first time that one ever Whirled!!☺

Is that the follow up to the teardown or is there a separate part one?

What a Crew !!! You Guys will be runnin it soon and we will get a test mowing Video ??

Thanks Bud!! I was tempted to put a Blind Fold on him!!☺

That's all they carry around here!!☺

You guys are looking like a Top Fuel team during turnaround lol!!!

Will do Mate!!☺

Yeah Buddy!! It's already in the Can!!☺

Yeah That's exactly what I thought when they started using the Speed Wrench!!☺

That was the top of the Class there Buddy!!☺

A couple screwdrivers and a big hammer!!☺

Yeah it was easier to work around it than take it out for sure!!☺

I'm gettin' too old too use anything with Speed in its name!!☺

I always called mine a Speed Wrench..but I'm old. Great for oil pans....

The teardown was part one, I gotta change the title, it is kinda confusing!!☺

You need to get a cross hatch pattern when you hone the cylinder .

Quite a bit, all the fine powdery stuff was gunked up behind it!!☺

Yeah Buddy!! won't be long now!!☺

do you guys know anything about outboard boat moters?

We call them a "speed brace" down here...It's been many moons since I used mine..lol

nice work boys . got my computer working finally , get ready for more wise ass comments . lol

If Ebay don't have it, nobody does eh!!☺

Yeah Buddy!! That will be the last one!!☺

We called them whirly wrenches

Surely you have a carquest nearby? Their housebrand filters are rebranded Purolators, good stuff indeed. Or perhaps Walmart? My local walmart carries Motorcraft filters, which are rebranded purolators as well. Or, hell, perhaps you can just order purolator/wix filters straight from the company online? No filter at all is better than a FRAM. I wouldn't be surprised if that FRAM is why this engine failed in the first place. I'll PM you a study that shows why I suspect the FRAM is partly to blame

Give 'Em Hell !!!

Almost!!!

I don't think I've ever used it!! I'm not in that much of a hurry I guess!!☺

Lol!! Don't have to worry about me getting to close to that!! I'll shoot it with the zoom if I have too eh!!☺

Either that or charge him storage eh!!☺

Yeah there was even more crap behind the timing cover!!☺

Yikes,, I'll mail you a good one !

Lol!! I don't think that will ever see any paint, that's gonna be a Work Horse not a Beauty Queen!!☺

Let's hope they don't put another FRAM on it.

Paint er up

Yeah Buddy!! They made fast work outta that little project!!☺

Yeah that's all it is, is a cheap fix just so he could use it!! he was lucky that's all it cost him!!☺

Thanks Bud!! Ya had us worried, we were gonna drop you a PM to see if you were alright!!☺

Like surgens

Good thing ya didnt have to pull the crank out pain in the ass getting gear off crank ya have to heat it up to pull it off and to put it on

I don't know about a Sickle, but I'm no stranger to a Reel Mower!!☺

Dang pretty cheap to fix that eh.

40 bucks for that piston is cheap!
