Gave myself a little job today (or so I thought).I really should have been doing my restores,but I thought yeah this won't take very long.Wrong,oh no,how wrong I was.
Here look at what I mean.

Not one of the bearings where any good.Even the conrod bearing is stuffed.So now I have it apart I couldn't leave it like that.So I now have found enough parts to rebuild the engine.Have cleaned everything and hopefully put it together tomorrow.Bugger a little job turned into 2 days work.
