Hi Pedrosa, all looking good. Be careful moving the old iron, it`s very heavy. Use the best mechanical handling tools you have and stay out of harms way. I have seen serious injuries from slowly moving heavy steel objects.

Good luck, let us know how you go.

Bob

hello bob

So, how are these bones?

a lot of work and little restoration. I got my calibrated injectors today (and I got a compliment from the injector technician about the cleaning).

the plans for the fuel filter are in progress as you can see in the photos, the cart is already on the white board as well.

Tomorrow is the day to go get the wood for the cart, cut, drill, screw and put wheels.

Let's see how it goes.

greetings
Pedrosa

Hi Pedrosa, looks like you are making good progress. I am a little concerned about your modification to the fuel filter, I`m not convinced the pressure holding the filter against the o`ring will be sufficient and could allow unfiltered diesel to bypass the filter.

Congratulations on the injectors and injector pumps. I striped my pump months ago and found the rack to be badly damaged. I recently got my hands on another old CAV injector pump with the intention of using the best parts from each to make one good unit. I have a new element for it so we`ll see how it goes. I`ll post some pics as soon as possible.

Good luck,
Bob

Loock at plan above. I will make a threaded nut, where it inserts a bored tube (1/4 ~ 3/8), and carries another nut in the bottom, with orings on both sides. All brass metal.

The photo is to show that I can always insert the original filter.

The filter is an Rx9, quite common to many cars, and fits perfectly on the spot.

Cheers.

Hi Everyone

Just to update. Wood and wheels are ready to roll...

Wood is wet, rain came yesterday.

A few bolts and nuts and new kart will be done.

Cheers
Pedrosa

How wet is the wood? It might be worth painting the end grain with polyurethane varnish to stop it from splitting as it dries out.

Like your design for the diesel filter, sorry I only viewed the picture not the drawing.

Hi Bob

Just some overnight drops, nothing that worth any painting because it will be temporary.

Now my concern is to figure out the way to lift the block.

My idea is I have to mount a scaffold with good support to raise the engine, put the cart underneath and make a rail to get out.

Let's see how it goes.

cheers.

will that wood and castors support the engine?

Hi JD

I believe that it is. The wood is 14x7cm, the castors will be fixed with threaded rod M10, the fastening of the crosspieces is with threaded rod M12. and the motor is secured with M14 threaded rod.

The casters are from an 1000L trash container (~200kg/unit).

We will see!

Hi Everyone

Updating the Kart task. there is no need for that brute force planned. 10mm rods to hold the frame straight is sufficient.

And only 12mm for the engine. "Let's give it some room"

Bob, thanks for the warnig of the wet wood, when I tightened the screws I saw that the fibers were very soft. loosen and painted the tops with an enamel that lay there on the shelf - only for the wood not to breathe from the top.

Now let it dry more ...

Cheers
Pedrosa

While the "Leslie" goes by nothing like shining the taps (the supply tank, the fuel tank and fuel return nipple)

Hi Pedrosa, I heard on the news today that Portugal is facing a very rare and dangerous Atlantic storm. Hoping all is well with you and your family.

Stay safe,
Bob

Hi Bob

Just a few showers to settle the dust, and in some places strong gusts of wind that knocked down some trees. So far there is no news of major occurrences.

Civil protection had warned enough. Everything is normal already.

How's the restoration going around?

I have to have the gibkey puller cut, to go forward ... and "take the little boy out of the shack"

I have some gas soldering to do on PETTER ... I had to buy the second hand apparatus for DIY.

Self-taught in gas welding... Let's move forward!

Cheers
