Gasket, seal, skim or bin?

(1/3) > >>

chunterjam:
So I have some scuff marks on the top of my liners. I can actually only feel one of the scuffs.

Do I just put the gasket back on, put some gasket seal, get it skimmed or F it in the bin and get a good one?

Thanks in advance.

Looks like it needs just a few rounds on a lapping block.

In place of a lapping block, we used to use a piece of 3/8th plate glass and grinding paste and use circular movements and regular paste changes. work your way from rough paste to smooth, just wash very well before refitting.

My Grandad used to own a bike shop in Bristol many years ago and my dad had to take apart all the fine example of british bikes straight from the factory and lapp all the crankcases in so they didn't leak oil (as much anyway).
He had to use a slab of plate glass and lots of elbow grease.
On another note, him and his brothers had the run of the shop and could have any bike they wanted, his favourite bike? Norton Dominator 500SS with Brooklands exhaust, can you imagine the noise!

Fine wet and dry used with oil and thoroughly washed off then new gasket
