Cant get it in!

<< < (3/5) > >>

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
When I was having my groundhog days with my crank casings the first two times no problem with fitting the shaft - the third time I had issues like you - i thought I would have to split the crank case yet again - as has been said if the chain is not sitting fully engaged on the crank it just will not go that last bit - in the end whilst holding the pimary gear and shaft I rotated the crank very slightly one way then in the opposite direction and it went in a dream - I had fitted new primary drive rubbers, gears and chain as well.

Yes as a man gets older (with one exception) everything gets harder.

Luckily everything is still in full working order, just need a few more prods on the starter these days. 🙄

Just approaching 75 yrs old, and if I take my tablets I can still just get my leg over.  BUT, it must have an electric starter!
