Thanks for the calming words from people. Someone asked me to explain what I meant by 'engine won't turn over'. OK its: 'crankshaft seems like it's welded to the block'. And now I've got a second opi

When I was just a lad working in a gas station, some guys were switching out rod bearings on their stock car, only they read the book wrong and torqued them to the main bearing spec - caused that sam

Is that engine an interference engine. Any chance of the cam timing being off? == This list supported in part by The Vintage Triumph Register == http://www.vtr.org == unsubscribe/change address reque

Thanks list for you calming answers. My engine still suffers from the new and improved word, 'lockdown'. I wish I could see a possible orientation of the dreaded third cam bearing problem from the ho

Nope, Paul is working on a TRactor motor, and they are not interference engines (unless heavily modified). Randall == This list supported in part by The Vintage Triumph Register == http://www.vtr.or

Providing the valves are set properly. If the adjusters are set way too low or if the head has been shaved the valves may indeed protrude far enough to contact the piston. Quick-n-easy test is to pul

I had a locked up problem with a motor I built 15 years ago. The problem was that one of the main bearings was too large. I was buying directly from the warehouse. I returned the bad main set and go

An interference engine is one where a fully open valve will hit a piston at TDC. If the crankshaft/camshaft relationship is not maintained for some reason (like a broken timing belt/chain) or is set

An "interference" engine is one where the piston and valves occupy the same space - just not at the same time. In other words as the piston moves down the intake valve opens up into the region where

An "Interference" engine is when the piston & valve can come in contact . This can occur when the crank & valve go out of sync either during a mechanical failure or over reving. That's one of the rea

Among Fiat owners this was called "Mr Piston gets to meet Mr Valve". The Fiat Spiders may have been among the first to use a timing belt on an interference engine (1968) and also among the first to l
