UK Pete:
Great work love your enthusiasm , the engine can swallow sooooooo much money it's a case of if you you do one thing you have to do the lot then all of a sudden 2 thirds of the budget had gone on things you can't even see

Do I need a bearing puller to get the bearing out of that layshaft bearing holder?
Cosmic. Just great . .... My PC is dead. PSU has failed I think. But it means my only internet access is by phone now. That's delayed my part ordering to next month then 😭

Don't panic, a PSU can be found on e bay for reasonable money, and are very easy to fit, you're looking at £15-20 for a decent one including delivery. 4 screws hold the PSU in place, all you do is undo the screws, the PSU comes out from the inside of the casing, screw the new one in place, then swap the plugs into the motherboard one at a time, that way you can't go wrong. When all of them have been swapped over, lift the dead unit out of the casing, refit the side, plug into the mains and you're done.

Very easy to get the bearing out of its housing, pop it in the oven for 10 min and tap it out on a block of wood ;)

PSU problem sorted :) The fan had failed, and it was stalling...causing the unit to trip out. Wasn't overheating...just pulling too much current..and there must be a trip out in there that was popping. Cut out and soldered in a new fan. 5 minute job. That sorted that. Then I found I had another problem on top of that ...which I traced to a Win10 update. Causes a misdirection to the boot ini....leading to a 'boot device not found' error. Had to manually remove the package in DOS ( I am old enough to have used this before! ), boot into safe mode and upload the fix patch. Wasted half a day....but it cost me nothing.
I'm on safe ground when it comes to PC components...and electronics in general...but thanks for the tips HairyGit :) I was more stressed by the possible side issues of a fried PSU. Last time I blew a PSU it spiked the motherboard and it was toast. The thing is about 5 years old...so you then have to weigh up whether it's worth buying a motherboard for outdated CPU and RAM....and before you know it...£800 has piled onto the credit card. Money I want to spend on the Honda!
Still...on the plus side....my primary chain sprocket arrived today. £30 plus postage. The guy was selling it with a pair of chains and a tensioner. Both used...but he wasn't keen on splitting. Originally he had wanted £40...but a bit of haggling and I was happy. It's in decent condition and certainly as good as the one I have taken out. I guess the guy didnt want to get stuck with a chain and tensioner nobody would ever buy. I now have 2 sets of worn chains and 2 tensioners with saggy springs and hard as concrete wheels. Ain't I the lucky one :)
