Gentles,

Another rainy day!

Went to get injection pump and the injector from Bosch lab. This time payed only with friendship.

Sorting bits from basket, had take measure to the small end bush, and it indicates about 0,15 mm of lash on vertical axis. Let's see if new bush will be needed.

Gentles,

Things are going smoothly, and after a good cleaning and pressure washer big stuff is getting his hand of primary.

Crankcase, crankcase bracket, head and pulley.

I use MS Picture manager with win7 64.

Giving one more push to the CD, today put my eye in the oil pump.

But going back a few days ago I was suspicious about the shape of pinion teeth. They seem to have chewed "something" at any time of its life.

Looking at the intermediate oil pump pinion, and the oil pump pinion it self, for sure something got to be there between the teeths.

And also I noticed the pump pinion was wobbling on its spindle, and take out the tapered key. Take a look at it. Just incredible!

Take a look too to the oil pump wheels teeth's shape and you can imagine how many thousands of hours it has.

A few pics to the show.

Gentles,

While raining outside and after supper, give a few more kicks in the CD.

Flipped to side, finally toke oil pump off, after that the sump - take a look at that gunk and slurry!

Pull out long head studs and crank after that.

Intermediate gear of oil pump too, and crankcase support brackets.

Almost all stripped. Next task pull off compression operating shaft.

A few pic to showoff.

PS: Please can anyone tell me why crank casting date - following Lister's mode of dating cast iron - shows 15JAN1920, but CD only start to be made at 1933.

Gentles,

The toy is going slowly.

Today managed to drill and tap M5 hole to put a set screw in order to prevent or stop(??) the bearing to spin inside its housing.

Remember I pulled easily the bearing?

Lets see how it goes.

This trick was - once again - one advice of my friend Mr. Pedro, from VEICOMER (https://listerengine.com/smf/index.php?topic=9555.msg111186#msg111186)

PS: image without properties still rotate.

Gentles,

More than 150 days,  in 4 mouths, of rain makes everything idle here.

A few roof edge tiles fell down with Martin's storm.

Meanwhile, a few more bits off the Lister CD. All wheels of kart are finally off.

And a new  (2nd hand from 80's) field cultivator to my micro farm.

2 pics to the rant.

Cheers

Gentles, AdeV

Many thanks for your replays.

When I say autorotate it can be anything that the software used manipulates an image to change original post.

AdeV, I underline I got the most respect to you and the outstanding work you do supporting this forum - Peter & Rita Forbes just disappear because there was no redundancy.

You can see my all images got 800px max wide, in order to to avoid any horizontal scrolling.

Yes, please disable the resize, because when image "rotates" the detail of image will be harder to get after reading the sentence that pin points it.

Bronco, my images are all edited before upload - there is none upload raw, neither the attachments allow such size.

Just my 5 cents for the improvement.

Cheers

Gentles,

Started do note measures about wearing to see how bad thing can go.

Already told outer #1 bushing  - that I suspect it spun inside crankcase end cover. See dimensions at pics 1 and 2.

Pic 3 and 4 the #2 outer bushing and crank journal.

And 5 and 6 the the #1 bushing ID and crank journal.
