    Thanks for condensing Fabian’s engine rebuild series into one very enjoyable package Muths! And I want to pay extra tribute to Herr Muth Snr who obviously inspired Christian’s interest in engineering and his never say die attitude to problem solving, and to son Robin, who is not only a chip off these older blocks, but obviously on his way to being a stand alone talent in his chosen field of blacksmithing. And Vera - proud mother and the perfect foil for Christian’s teasing banter, and possessed of the most incredible technical memory of any CZcamsr! Cheers again guys.

  • @charliemyres5450
    @charliemyres5450 Před rokem

    Most impressive ingenuity Christian.
    If I may make one suggestion, it is to wash the engine block crank-case and cylinders with hot soapy water after degreasing it. This ensures that any grit from honing and machining, is washed out of the macroscopic voids in the cast surfaces. I washed my block twice on my Rover V8, along with a vigorous hosing.
    The bores start to rust as soon as they are dried, but a quick squirt of WD40 soon stops that and surface rust wipes off with an oily rag.
