More surging issues

<< < (2/4) > >>

RustyCaddy:
On the very off chance what i had experienced might apply to your situation, the bolt holding the sprocket to the crankshaft came lose once and backed out a couple of millimeters. The sprocket was traveling slightly but still rode the woodruff key.  The engine would advance and retard, back and forth so sometimes it felt like it was surging.

srgtlord:
Well I'll be damned.... 3 of the 4 bolts holding the pump bracket to the block are gone and the 4th is barely threaded on.... Holy crappers.......

ORCoaster:
Caught in the nick of time.  That could have be an exploding momment if that IP came unbolted.

fatmobile:
3 out of 4 and the last one was loose.
 That's bad.
 So the pump was bolted on,.. to a bunch of loose brackets, ha.
 Could have been a much worse ending.

 Blue  locktite them back in.

srgtlord:
Yeah I'm going to steal the bolts off my spare engine and put them in this weekend. This is looking like a Sunday afternoon project
