    not sure if there a slight tapering of the pin,,does one end of pin look bigger then the other side,but yeah replace pin for split pin
  5. think it comes down to over-tightening! hand tight does the job not brute force.......i use pin hammer to flattened my sump holes
  6. it would certainly put me right off getting one,if i was a new comer.......in other words get one with good body everything is re-placeable thru parts dealers

  15. what does help the bottom ends is pre-oil pressure the engine before its run,,just take coil +feed off and turn over til light go`s out or pressure built by gauge
  16. ive used the horseshoe type for many year,never failed,used with extra bar,but this was bought in the mid 90`s so good quality from sealey.just go`s to show the quality of certain tools and parts have gone down-hill since chineses and other copy`s have flooded the market
  17. if its any help,ive had mine bosch battery on my dolly for 3yrs now,still strong as ever
  18. think north is locked and south is unlocked,i could be wrong
  19. you have to remove the manifold,think the manual refers to a later engine,you`ve got early type
