After many years of owning a Triumph Spitfire Mk3 which is currently fitted with a MkIV engine I thought it was about time I stripped down the spare Spitfire Mk3 FD engine I've had in my shed for the last few years; in preparation for rebuild and reuniting the FD engine with the Spitfire Mk3 Project

You made it look so simple, good job!

The stripdown is the easy bit, getting it right on the rebuild, that's the bit that matters 👍

Engines from that era needed a refresh after 60,000 miles anyway… head off for a decoke, new rings, timing chain, maybe new bearing shells….

Very true, it’s the days when engines could be stripped and rebuilt with a simple tool kit 👍

I once took a mini engine apart in the living room when the wife was away. I got oil on the carpet so moved a rug over only to discover she had laid the rug over a paint oil stain she had made

What l really want to know Steve ......ls who cleans your overalls ! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ......you mucky pup !! 😄 lt really didn't make sense as to why it was seized . I rebuilt a couple of mini engines back in the. day ( early '70's ) they both lasted less than a 100 miles !!! Thanks Steve

I think it because I too the plugs out last year, and the damp has got inside it. Well it's getting rebuilt now so all should be good 👍
