Pistons were within measured tolerances,so life still left in them,so

didn't go for rebore and new pistons.So EA81 engine housings bore will

be honed,new rings STD standard size.Main bearings crank ground to new bearing

size of .010 for conrod bearings STD size.

Cylinder heads skimmed.

Engine reconditioners total costs $270.00 NZ Dollars.

New bearings installed.All engine parts cleaned,

surfaces oiled,a mechanic was on hand,parts put back together

as Subaru factory service manual.

 

Main Bearings in one side.

Engine does not idle good, took it to someone to test,air leak somewhere.

3000rpm air leak disappears,spindle on carb possible?, running

Found these in pick a part rusty.

tyres taken off and dumped.

had some lacquer paint off white lying around.added a

little of yellow to it.dabbed a bit of paint on the rim

where the tyre hides the paint , the colour close to old

colour,as didn't want to paint them pure white.

The wheels rims will get road grime, brake dust over in time.
