K181 rebuild

Recommended Posts

Thought I would do a thread on this, I’m covering a commando 8 tranny that’s not pretty.... well I have a k181 that’s not so good too.

 

the bore is seized, as it too is full of water... we couldn’t turn it over so unbolted the head. Snapping a bolt - more on that laterC3420654-5186-41A8-954F-FD1CBBD4D551.jpeg.f766b0ec47be2e11e27a1bf4d1a4fa8e.jpeg

 

not a pretty sight, but a block of wood and a hammer got it moving. Some of the funk you see is oil and diesel that was left in to try free it.

so now it moves, it can be stripped. Both valves are rusted open, I guess there’s a bit to do!
