Starting to balance/true the wheel

I found that wheel balancing is a bit of a slow process, and requires some patience. can be tricky, but definetly achievable. It just takes some time. Only 3 more to go..

Work continues on the side car.  Filler added and sanded down.

I did manage to get this die of the side car smooth and painted primer red, but forgot to take a pic. made a start on the inside too!

Moving on to some engine work. I fashioned a presser, to press out the central rod, so i could disconnect from the main crank.
Cleaned up the pistons and rings. One of the rings disintegrated on diss assembly, i ordered 2 new sets. Might as well make both sides the same (ie new)
Pistons themselves are in very good condition. there was a bit of soot posit here, but that came off with out any major fuss. No wear on the sides either which is good too.

Cleaned Pistons and rings (minus the snapped one)

On to the notoriously troublesome flywheel bolt..
It seemed that mr previous owner never owned a 36mm socket. As such, the bolt was previously 'done up' with a hammer and chisel. So i ground off the buggered edges and corners so my socket would fit...

Tidyed Flywheel bolt

I would have taken a pic of the undoing, but it was a bit of a 2 handed operation. Easy though. I used a 36mm socket, that was welded on to a very long bit of steel angle, and a 19mm spanner wedged in a hole of the flywheel and the oil sump to prevent the flywheel from turning. Rested it against something solid to prevent the whole engine from turning and It came undone in a matter of seconds. this may be due to the length of the fashioned 'spanner'. Which helped apply an enormous amount of pressure, with little effort on my part. Needless to say i have ordered a new bolt to go back here.

Now the bolt was undone i had to use a puller to get the flywheel off...

The two pronged worked the best for me. Three prongs kept popping out for some reason..
Pop. and there it was.

Don't forget the woodruff key in the main crank spindle!

Now the next part, (removing the main crank bearing/cover) required a different kind of puller. so i need to acquire one before continuing here..

So i looked in to the sump..

a bit of treacle goo, but not much left. to be fair, there is probably more oil left in here than what i previously drained out..

Looked quite clean though..

 I did clean up the sump plate, and paint it a nice heatproof matt black finish. Forgot to take a pic too.

as i am waiting for a puller, i will continue with the generator clean up next...
