Engine case help
Posted: 04 Feb 2015, 18:30
Hi
Can anybody help, I have purchased a used engine case, I have tried to fit it today but it won't home on the crank end.
Taking a look at it it is slightly different to the one that was damaged, were the bolt that holds the cogs onto the crank the new case has a small like pin were the old one has like a circular casting. I can grind the pin off then it should home but if I do this and something else doesn't line up then I have to keep the case, I think the case is off a MK 1 or 2 and mine is MK 3.
The case was purchased as a MD 24 case and my engine is a MD 24 why are they different ?, I thought all engine parts except gears were interchangeable .
Help !
