Title: Engine Critical places not so obvious?
Post by: 91lux on October 31, 2006, 01:13:06

Dear Group
I just checked and adjusted my thrust bushing for the tach drive on my m130 with a great help from the site. It was more by coincidence because of a broken tach wire that I checked the play of the bushing.Is there other similiar isssues like this that should be checked.? I have not seen in the BBB a kind of list that highlight other than bearings,cylinders and rather obvious things.
Thankful for any recommandations and hint.

regards 91lux, Norway

Probably best to check your oil filter too. There is a ring (the subject of many posts) that is frequently missing that can cause incomplete filtering of engine oil.  The ring is available for about 2 bucks.

Best,
