After a busy start to the fall with some home renovations, it's time to get the engine stripped down and to the block shop for testing and measuring. This is the engjne fhat came with the boat and had a cracked oil pan. The used one in the boat currently I improperly winterized and it cracked just above the water jacket access plate. I'll be using the oil pan from that one on this rebuild.
The Moyer manual has been very helpful and I am learning a lot about engine parts!
Of course the first bolt to shear off is the hardest to take. One of the accessory drive bolts. Had two more shear on the water jacket cover. Planning on putting studs in for the rebuild.
How does one access the crank journal nuts under the oil filter? I can't fit a socket for a breaker bar in there and the spanner isn't long enough.
