Subject: Re: How do I undo the dog nut/ Engine Noises
Re: Buggered chain guide:
Sounds like the tensioner may not be doing its job real well - if the chain
is loose enough to flap, it could easily destroy the pad, or knock it
loose.
Make sure the detent is working right, and that the sliding bit of the
tensioner is OK and doing its job. ALso, make sure the valving is OK in the
tensioner base, and is not clogged - same goes for the block port that is
feeding oil to it.
Did the pad have the proper lock tabs on the bolts?

Indeed, I've found that a good "shock" to the dog beats the steady pressure
bar. When I fitted a capstan winch, I put an appropriate six-point wrench
on it and whacked it with the 3 pound lump hammer. First shot, it came
undone. (The fact that I had hosed it with penetrating oil for a week
prior might have helped, tho') Cheers

Subject: Re: Fwd: amp.meter shaking
I think the brushes in the generator might be going bad - this can make the
alternator work partly, or not work at all.
The reason it acts steady when the glow plugs are on is that they are
pulling electricity from the battery - this is an even strain, so the meter
moves smoothly. If the generator or its regulator is going bad the needle
may shake, or not move at all.
Have your friend have the generator tested at a garage - they can tell if
it is OK.

From: Brett Storey <brstore@ibm.net> Date: Thu, 25 Jun 1998 00:33:21 -0400 Subject: OVLR B-day - the story continues More fun in the sun. The weekend was far from over after the morning auction, where J. Berg's synopsis left off. Tom Tollefson and Team Daphne out of Toronto were keen to do the heavy off-roading so passed the word after the auction that departure was eminent. Our ranks quickly swelled and ten or so Land Rovers (and one honkin Unimog) set off down the road for the hydro line. Upon arrival Ben Smith took the lead, crossed a shallow stream, and slowly began picking his way between and over the rocks as he climbed up the first hill. No real drama here and everyone easily followed. A hundred metres or so farther on and we came to a rather steep decent into a gully with a short steep climb out the other side. This was followed be a nice mucky boggy section. Tom went first in his 101, handling the gully with ease but became mired in the bog. He easily extracted himself then continued on across a dry section and into another boggy bit. With a full head of steam, he drove right through this one and then climbed to higher ground. I followed in my 88 and when I reached the first bog, I stayed farther right, up against the trees, and easily made it through. I was so happy with my accomplishment that I totally forgot about the second bog and putt putted to a stop right in the middle of it, stuck fast. Tom winched me out and I continued on. Ben came through next and shot straight through. He was followed by Dave Bobeck. Unfortunately, Dave's 88 slipped into Tom's ruts and that was it for him and the winch was called into service once again. As the rest followed, most getting through without help, Ben and Mark Newman pushed on finding the trail ahead. One by one we each followed, up and down a couple more hills till we reached the next bog. This one was going to be a lot tougher to get across and was the spot where the group had to give up two years ago. The area was very muddy and the grass growing in the bog was about three feet high. When I got there, Ben was already mired in the mud and Mark was winching him back out. I was fairly sure we wouldn't be getting through here this year either. Tom arrived, had a quick look at Ben's tracks, jumped back in the 101, and gunned into the mess. He got twice as far as Ben but hung up on a buried log. He was going to winch himself forward but realized we would be here till late in the evening trying to get everyone through (there was still one more major bog to cross before reaching the road) and most of us still had long drives home, so we decided to admit defeat again this year and turn back. Ben positioned himself to pull Tom out but his winched packed up on him and Mark had to stand in. Our convoy now reversed itself and retraced our tracks back. Everyone was getting through the sticky bits with out problem, including Quintin Aspin and Andrew Finlayson in their Series I's who made it look so easy. I followed Bill Rice in his 109 through and naturally got myself stuck. Doh! As Dave Lowe, in his Lightweight, was pulling me back out, I looked ahead up the hill and saw Bill's 109 flopped over on it's side. It was the ol' left rear tire goes up a bump as the right front drops into a hole deal, but with the help of ten or so hardy souls, the vehicle was righted again within seconds and there appeared to be no damage. It all happened so fast I don't think anyone even got pictures. While some continued to play on the rocks for a while, the rest of us headed back to camp to pack up. When we got back we found Christine Rose and her gang had a fine lunch of roast beast sandwiches waiting for us, a most welcome surprise. It was a great weekend and we all had a great time. Thanks to all at OVLR for all the effort making this the most excellent Birthday Party. See ya all next year.

The fey on the side of the crankshaft is causing me problems. I am trying to fit a new sprocket but the fit is very tight so I have tried heating the cog which allowed me to put the cog on the shaft but as soon as I had the cog being cooled by the shaft would not go any further. Using a piece of large radius pipe I have hammered it further down. But now the first key on the crankshaft is popping out. Any suggestions on a better method of reassemble Martin Lough Frank W Murphy Ltd.

If the pins aren't touching then you most likely have the shoes on the
wrong sides (front to back).
The shoes are handed - and oftentimes folk get them mixed up.
