Greetings,
I'm in the middle of the tear-down phase on my 1275 that I recently pulled
out of my Sprite, and I have a couple of questions:
There were no lock washers or lock tabs of any kind on the main bearing caps
or the rod bearing caps. Is this normal?
I notice in looking in the Moss catalog that the thermostat housing appears
to have originally been held to the head with studs and nuts. Mine was
fastened with bolts. I planned to replace the bolts anyway... Is there any
advantage to the stud/nut configuration (same thing with the heater valve).
Hmmm... that's all for now - More to follow.
