WEBER was installed! (The original blog was written on 30th Sep. 2007)

Despite the WEBER was already assembled, I was busy recently and could not find the time.
But today I could manage to find a time and installed the WEBER on the engine!



I also wanted to try the engine start.  But I found that the cam cover was dirty and for some reason I began to remove the cam cover to clean it.  As the result it became dark and I withheld to start the engine at night.


I became very hungry so we enjoyed a barbecue with “Shichirin” for our dinner.
(“Shichirin” is a small portable stove for cooking with charcoal made by clay.)

However , before repairing the holed

Clutch master cylinder overhaul #4

The overhaul of the clutch master cylinder , which I succeeded in the removal and repair of the piston with solder ( probably ), has been still continuing.  The master cylinder was disassembled and all parts were cleaned.  The condition of each part was not bad. In the last week the cylinder and rod were painted. Assembly started.  I checked the condition of the rubber parts originally used comparing with ones of the repair kit.  And I decided to use the original ones because the rubber was not deteriorated yet and the quality looked better than the repair kit ’ s one. Always the assembly is fast although I always struggled with the disassembly. Before After The overhauled master cylinder could be operated smoothly.  And I believe the appearance also became cleaner. ( My original blog was written on 26th Jul. 2009 )
