Hi Norm,
Yes that does sound odd. I'll have a look tomorrow to see what belt mine is running.
Yes it's a shame especially when I rebuilt it but I think part of the problem was due to the engine reconditioner boring it too far for the 20 thou rings & piston to work as they're used to doing racing engines. Although it turns over ok I'm going to pull of the sump to check if there's anything abnormal.
Yes the grass is very thick and already 5ft in spots. It's looking like there will be a big fire risk this year for us and especially for Ballarat as well.
