November 9, 20187 yr I am rebuilding point in the side cub engine my original crankshaft has wear on the oil feed side so got another crank off flebay and that one same wear on the shaft where the oil feed is anything to worry about or do I need to split crank buy new shaft
November 11, 20187 yr Talk to someone like Chris at Meridan off road. He refurbished and rebuilds these engines daily. I have a feeling they can be refurbished. Hope this helps. Bruce
November 18, 20187 yr Yeah, should be a simple job for a machinist. Turn crank down, sleeve, and finish turn or grind to original size.
November 18, 20187 yr Author yes been thinking all can be done sleeve it. if you don't do it you loose oil pressure thank you thai-ty
December 4, 20187 yr Send it to Chris at Meriden off road, he rebuilt a bottom end in my early plain bush engine and had him modify crankcase for his oil pump mod which works well and I’ve had no problems.
December 5, 20187 yr Author yes thinking of do that send him side case and the crank do the big end was think having a go at doing the big end my self my mate said best to farm it out to the experts and save and pay up job done
