Why is it when Jeff comes along and offers to sell parts everyone supports him, but when I try to sell a motor everyone wants to try to convince people to rebuilt it themselves?
Honing the motor out and cleaning the crank off with emry cloth is a very bad way to "fix" the engine. I've rebuilt several for people who did just that. They honed it and polished the crank with emry, and in 20 hours brought me a motor with a broken rod and couldn't understand why. If so many guys on here have done this and will help, how come me and like 2 other gus are the only ones who ever give advice on rebuilds?? Keith has said he is not a mechanic, or inclined to do this type of repair. His brother, however is, but isn't interested in doing it. I think Keith can swap the motor out, and I have offered to sell him a brand new one to drop in. Guys...... come on. He's not going to rebuild the old one himself. He told me so.
