Video rebuild

<< < (6/6)

Andych:
Personally I think Julies build thread is as good a reference as you would want... lots of pictures and good, accurate descriptions.. when I finally get to mine that will be my reference tool.

Man Of Kent:
I am so glad that I have read this thread first. I have been watching this chaps video a few times to learn about stripping and building a 400/4 engine. I have never built an engine in my life as I am a joinery manufacturer but I want to learn as I have many projects here to play with. I am just in the process in building a new shed in the back garden to have as a man cave and to play with my bikes in the evening instead of sitting indoors watching the boss of the house soaps.
In the New Year I was going to strip and build the 400 but I would love to see a video showing me how to do it correctly, if I hadn't seen this thread I would have defiantly put oil under the shells and probably made a mistake on the torque settings.
I am a complete novice so am I expecting too much of myself or should I do an SS50 engine first as I have got five of them here. Lol

Nurse Julie:
You will be just fine.....take your time and keep asking questions on here.

taysidedragon:
I recommend that you do a rebuild on a single cylinder engine first if you've never done it before.  That'll be a lot simpler to learn the principles on. On the 400 you've 4 cylinders to do and a lot more components to play with.
Since you have SS50 engines already, learn on one of them before jumping in the deep end. 👍
