  1. not mine though....
  2. And some TLC too..... Washing of any road salt remnants and setting proper slacjs
  3. But also nipping out for a spin where possible...
  4. For now I focus my spare time on 50's front end technology....
  5. Asking 400 Lock ups are scarce in my town; and if they do come up for sale you asre talking tens of thousands.... Renting a -commercial- lockup will be hundreds per month.... and not local...
  6. Piston in spare/donor engine seized solid at TDC. So I created a shallow pool with penetrating oil. Keep that topped up for a while...
  7. And yet again, another Honda V4 is offered to me. Engine seems farked (waterpump at least) but an ok 1986 engine is included.... Not having spare dry storage space atm, so she will spend the winter outside under tarp.. Hmmmmmmmmmm
  8. Had a hard time removing the generator. Double checked the parts fiche for any hidden from plain view bolts. But no, it had to be 6,5 decades of corrosion... So had to go McGyver.... Ah! Now I see.... And I knew that one day, that 10mm pipe would come in handy
  9. Winter hibernation with some chemicals inside to block condensation... Ins'Allah Clean Place Zip 🤞
  10. Gasket kits for 65 year old engines? No problemo!!
  11. To prove my point, this arrived today
  12. Do ask them what is included in the kit, just to be sure it will address your leak....
  13. O Flower of Scotland, When will we see Your like again, That fought and died for, Your wee bit Hill and Glen, And stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again. The Hills are bare now, And Autumn leaves lie thick and still, O'er land that is lost now, Which those so dearly held, That stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again. Those days are past now, And in the past they must remain, But we can still rise now, And be the nation again, That stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again. The Hills is bare nou, An Autumn leafs, Lies thick an still, Ower land that is tint nou, That thae sae darlie held, That stuid agin him, Prood Edward's Airmie, An sent him hamewart, Tae think again. O Flower of Scotland, When will we see your like again, That fought and died for, Your wee bit Hill and Glen, And stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again.
  14. Also handy too loosen 65 year old clutch baskets... 😋
  15. Indeed, #11 is NLA and has been for years.... If u want, I can ask around on the Dutch VFR forum for you. But postage alone will be Eur 20.... plus everybody knows these are rare. I would McGyver something if I were you....
  16. My tip would be to first put the impact gun to "ON" and give the bolt a litte tap. Then switch rotation to OFF.
  17. try these guys http://www.nrp-carbs.co.uk/honda_fuel_tap_repair_kit.htm
  18. As for "old", the 1954 Gilera makes me the village dumb idiot then eh? "Stay on course Captain, steady as they go"
