Stuck Engine. Help!!!

[Don Elliott]

And now you know the rest of the story !

Thanks Frank and good luck.

Oy; short for Oyster, as in stew and raw with cocktail sauce and horse radish. Very delicious, indeed!

Frank, be sure to check that cover plate and make sure that it has no stress crack in it from the impact of getting hit.

Sorry for the CAPS, but i really did fail typing in college.
and Im glad you found the problem.Besides the gouge, are you going to have to have the flywheel rechecked for balance due the strees that was put on it?

 

[martx-5]

One of the bolts on the REAR sealing plate is out of position and is jammed against the back of the flywheel?

Paul - no fortunately the flywheel is clear.

Did you take the flywheel off to see??? I didn't read that you had done that. Wouldn't hurt to check...only four more bolts.

I'm glad you finally got the problem solved, but <span style="font-weight: bold">Brosky</span> originally suspected a problem back there, and he was right.

Wow Frank !!

I notice YOUR flywheel has no missing teeth.
You are a lucky guy.

Sabot,

You need to switch to lower case.

Thank you

No tain't Amish, that would be something like

"dunnervetter" or something more along the line of #$@$% once't! Not? Depending on what brand of Amish you are talking to.

You gonna pull the flywheel? or just grind the 1/16th off the bolt. If you could have got it spinning, it would have machined it's own channel, and you would have been none the wiser.

Well, all's well that ends well. Look forward to more pictures as it goes together. Gives me inspiration to get my own done.

Hey Steve !!

Is that very fine, Amish family lunch restaurant
still open at the bottom of the hill in Wrightsville
on the Susquehanna? I forget it's name but I sure don't
forget their chicken corn soup and chicken gravy and waffles.

yum yum,

dale

That would qualify it "a primo bride" in some states.

Dale,
How long ago was that? I don't go through Wrightsville much, so I couldn't name any restaurants in that area.

There are however... lots of them over here in Lancaster.

There's the temple of Gluttony, otherwise known as Shady Maple, seats over 3000 at a whack, go there for breakfast and you have to tip me over and roll me out like a barrel.

Plus lots more.

Frank: Thanks for sharing this experience. Sorry it happened. Amazing
how such a finite detail such as this can screw everything up.
A guy has just got to be, well, pardon me, but anal about detail.

Okay. So the story is over: It really was the one-armed man....
