Thread: Series 2A Diesel

G'day Tank

I hope that is not a 5 bearing Diesel, as 5 bearing motors have a habit of being able to over rev, the result with the Petrol motors is No4 conrod through the block as the crank is so rigid that the vibrations don't limit the drivers fear I have the remains of a 5 bearing Petrol here

cheers

I was hunting a 5 bearing motor for a fair while, one I bought turned out to be a 3 bearing, didn't pull it down till I got home, and another was all rusted up (crank) and I haven't been able to find a servicable one, so I'll stick with the 3 bearing job and see how Slow it turns out to be, Regards Frank.
