Cylinders.


Recommended Posts

They’re so tight, I’ve had to strip the motor around them! 1127. I’m now left with the cylinders and the upper crankcase. The fuckers just won’t budge! When hit, they sound as if they’re part of the upper case. Any dodges to make them part company? Presently soaking in WD40. I want to avoid breaking any fins, as they’re in really good nick!

It's either that, Tones, or seized on the front studs that are exposed to all the flying shite! And, I don't fancy removing the studs ... too much to go wrong!

yeah your probably right,  plusgas and acetone is a good combination with a little help from a heat gun.
