    right this is pissing me off now i can not get this barrel off the engine as it is seized to the studs

    i have got the head of and the fucker just wont budge, i have tried heating it up with a blow torch and then levering it off to no avail so i decided to spray diesel all around it every day to try and free it up and nothing is working

    ive decided im just going to get hold of another engine for this badboy so it leaves me in no bad mind if i destroy the knackerd one trying to get this barrel off

    i have already broke the cooling fins off in the process so it needs a new barrel at the least and with the clocks showing 39 thousand km the bottom end would need a revamp anyways. i can get hold of a engine thats done 20 mines since rebuild


    and to think this all started cause the scoot was low on compression and i wanted to replace the piston. i guess its expected as i only paid 100 quid for it
