Hi Peter, I would suggest your tolerances were a bit tight regarding the crankpin,I put a small chamfer on the pin to enter the hole and froze the pin, locktite the pin. Make sure every thing is perfectly square when pushing in the pin. You could of course turn the crankshaft including the pin! I ballraced my engine a very worth while modification Good luck. |

Having said that could any body tell me what pipes do what ie there are three 1/8th pipes coming from fire box end,centre one goes to Center of boiler top and appears through union.

Any help would be very welcome picture in post below is front of boiler Edited By Keith Whiddett on 11/07/2018 15:42:45 |
