KR> engine update
I found time today to remove the rods from the crank and do an amateur measurement of the crank with a digital micrometer. Crank is standard and right at "new spec's with zero abrasion or wear on any of the bearing locations. I'm guessing this crank could have gone another 2400 hours without a problem, with proper maintenance and care of course. Anyway, now I know. I'll have it checked for "out of round", flange runout, and dye tested for cracks and if it passes I can start the assembly process. Film at 11:00...

Re: KR> engine update
Clearly you took good notes when you visited my shop! -Jeff Scott --- Cc: "Oscar Zuniga"Subject: KR> engine update Larry: I see your problem immediately. Your hangar is too clean for you to get any serious work done. I do not see *any* tools on the floor, *no* old gasket scraps, dripped oil, pieces of snipped safety wire, errant washers, used and bent cotter pins, or any other evidence of actual progress on your engine removal and overhaul. I do not see any masking tape with handwritten labels on any wires or cables on the firewall, no yellow note-pad with items to remember to take care of in reverse order when re-assembling, so it's obvious that you'll never get everything put back in the proper place even if you get the engine overhauled in the first place. Which is questionable, since the short block is not sitting on an old blanket, some old sofa pillows, or a worn-out 6.00x6 tire. These things are necessary for a proper engine rebuild, so you might want to get busy and get your hangar in order. You need to take a serious look at getting your hangar disorganized so you can make measurable progress. And PS, a light coating of spilled Aeroshell 50 with about 20 hours on it will help cut the glare from the overhead lights off that clean floor. Just sayin'.

It was amazing at there engine overhaul stations. They had shadow boards for every part of an engine in the order it was removed with part numbers for quick reference. It was very organized.

I'm not concerned about the wires and hoses, they're pretty obvious, but there were several items I made "mental" notes about reverse order on install and which bolts had tabs attached for securing cables, etc. and the "mental" notes are a bit hard to read this morning. Maybe another cup of coffee and a sweet roll will remove some of the blurriness... As for the hangar, I'm lucky to be in the FBO heated and well lit hangar and the cleanliness is just a matter of picking up after myself. After 49 years of marriage some training is hard to ignore. :-) Larry Flesner ___ Search the KRnet Archives at http://tugantek.com/archmailv2-kr/search.
