sh*t son.. its been a while
getting lazyier as im getting older... nah jkss
but haven't done much aye.
dicided to get of my arse and do something, finally got my new cam on its way, its in the post somewhere right about now
!! so with that coming its getting closer to the topend of the motor being finished off .. yay!
so i thought i would get out and do some work on the gearbox i got with the motor !
Its a dog leg SSS Stanza 5 Speed, short box i think.
so i got it out of the shed and gave it a clean with a wire wheel on my drill and off i went.. scrubbed up heaps better that it was, just deciding if ill paint it black or try n polish it up...
while i had it out i thought i might see if it had any oil in it and drain it out.. well i pulled out the plug and not much came out.. just grey puss.. so i thought hmm cant be too good..looked at the plug (which happens to be magnetic) and noticed a fair bit of metal bits stuck too it so i thought i may aswell ripp of the bellhousing and all that and have a gander inside it.. and thats were im up to now
taken a few photo's cos i got a question
i also had to divise something to hold the gear box upright, cos trying to do it inbetween my legs was a bit hard and i didn't wanna drop it.. so i came up with something hehe a bit back yard you might say..
Gearbox ^
Bricks
^
bricks + old chair i found (and for saftey i nailed it to dads cupboard
)
!! ^
Gear box in .. and it gets my seal of approval
!! hahaha.
now.. question time.. do i have to take these 2 circlips out (see pic below) b4 i can remove the bellhousing ??
??
back out to the shed for me !
Cheers,
Stephen.
