Is this a typical TR engine modification?


Okay, who wants to admit to this little beauty when I wasn't looking. Nigel? Uncle Frank?

Ha - the phantom bodger!

I have something that used to be a head bolt that I use
to spin the oil pump, but its long enough to engage with the
pump and connect to an electric drill. You need to take the
bevel gear out first though.

One of the engines I've worked on had a thread inside the
bevel gear pinion so that you could lift it out, or insert it
with more control than just dropping it into the hole......
(but I can't remember what it was)

It must be worth running a competition for the strangest
foreign object found inside an engine.
