What do I check?
LesterPiglet:
Location of the tensioner in it's seating is aided by removal of the sump.
JustcallmeMrT:
Well, I'm into the top end. Anything look particularly out of place?
In the pic above, I was trying to show that the tiny gear on the cam adjuster bolt constantly slips out of the teeth in the adjuster body and jams up. Hoping my other one is good and I can just do a swap.
Trigger:
Nice new engine studs.
JustcallmeMrT:
Having never looked into a cylinder before, this may be a stupid question, but is the level of carbon on the pistons normal / ok?
Also, what is the best way to clean the gasket surface? Do you apply a gasket paste/goo or just straight on?

Hope it's new from factory and now just new. If I've gone this far, should I pull the barrels and replace that base gasket as well. Or is it pretty likely to seal up without doing that?
