Engine Removal

 

 

Storing the parts can be a problem. The wings are very difficult to store, they can be damaged very easily. This problem becomes even bigger when everything has new paint!!!! 

 

 

 

 

 

Lifting the engine was very exciting while we didn't know the weight exactly. Fortunately the 1275cc engine weights just about 80 kg. We managed to lift the engine with a cable attached to the roof.

 

 

The identification number of the engine did correspond with the number of the body. So knowing that the 40000 miles are real an overhaul wasn't necessary. Oil pressure was OK.

Cleaning and spraying in original black was the only thing we did.
