Tech Session at Alex Engles place
or
How did 9 quarts of oil just disappear?
From JT:
Success at the Engle's home. Thanks to Elizabeth for a hearty breakfast buffet and coffee for all. Very little drama in the exercise. Rob noticed it was unusual that no blood was shed. Strong attendance assured that there were lots of opinions on how to proceed. Lot's of cooks in the kitchen. No obvious signs of any exterior engine oil leakage. All the spark plugs with the exception of #6 looked perfect. Thus, it appears the culprit. Enjoy the pics. JT
Attendees:
Alex Engles, Jim Narum, John Taphorn, Rob Pink, Wally Meyer, Ed Nagel, Brian Hill, Steve Hawkins, Kevin Vincent and his son, John.
Some hardware in the driveway.
Yes, son… there IS an engine in there.
Really! There is!
Looks fine from down here!
We definitely had some helping hands.
It's comin' out of there!
Doggone fuel hose that Alex didn't want to take off…. :-)
It's outta' there!
Alex with a smile on his face. Mission accomplished.
Someone needs to enlighten several of us.
This is a picture (kinda' blurry) of the distributor gear in Alex's engine.
The distributor has a slot in the shaft and the gear has a tongue sticking up. I/we have never seen something like this….
