Finally finished
Finally finished
Finally got the rebuilt engine back in its frame over this last weekend and after kicking it over about 100 times and realising i had the ignition off she fired into life with a lot of smoke and weird smells coming from the exhaust she settled down into a smooth tick over i have still got to road test her but all the gears select OK and amazingly no coolant or oil leaks (yet).thanks to everybody on here for your input it was a pleasure to work on such a well made engine you can see why they go on forever the quality of components is second to none.

I'm unusually cautious with running in, but doing it all on the kick start even beats me .warloks wrote:Finally got the rebuilt engine back in its frame over this last weekend and after kicking it over about 100 times and realising i had the ignition off she fired into life with a lot of smoke and weird smells coming from the exhaust she settled down into a smooth tick over i have still got to road test her but all the gears select OK and amazingly no coolant or oil leaks (yet).thanks to everybody on here for your input it was a pleasure to work on such a well made engine you can see why they go on forever the quality of components is second to none.

If Honda released a modern CRM with electric start I'm sure it would sell like hot cakes.
