Well, I've tried 4 times to post a picture...the gods apparently aren't with me tonight. I tasked #2 son with building an engine mount so we could tear down my recently purchased engine. He came up with a better idea...bolting a 2x12 under a piece 3/4" plywood bolted to a pair of saw horses. That give a solid mount for the crank flange and lots of area to place things as they come off the engine. A quick trip to Home Depot sourced a 4x8 sheet of melamine which should be easier to clean up than plywood. Some screws and bolts and my engine crane and the engine is ready to start the tear down.
I tore the oil filter apart and ran a magnet thru it and came up with nothing in the way of metal. We'll see how the inside looks as it comes apart.
I had a talk with a few folks about ignition and the suggestion was replace the mags with a Light Speed system....save weight, get more fire and still have redundancy. Any thoughts from those using that system??
