Hi all
had a go at getting the crank out...Hmmm....do you have to take all the sprockets off or will the crank tap out when the rear mounting nuts are undone? the crank toothed sprocket is just held on by the pulleyand located with the spacer? did not want to get the 2lb club hammer on the job so any tips?

Do you need to take the two camshaft plugs out?

It's a long while since I had the pleasure of working on an Appia motor, but don't you have to screw some bolts into the three tapped holes at 10, 2 and 6 o'clock in the first picture to draw the rear main out first?

Spot on - 3 x 10mm head (M6 without checking) bolts to withdraw the rear main bearing , then the crank pulls out. No need to touch the cam nuts

Hi all
found some bolts and the crank is out...the bearings are worn through to the backing on the rear bearing and a bit thin on the front bearing....see pics

Hi all
just came off the phone from my engine man he is quoting £120 for the rebore and £100 for the regrind...might gamble on another block that came with the car and get it honed for £40 and another £50 on getting 2 studs helicoiled....save £30? I should be so lucky! however this block is a later one with more water jackets Hmmm...Off to see him tomorrow

Hi all
blocks and crank still with the engine man so took the chance to get the crankcase on the engine stand so I can get it really clean. was tempted to use my Karcher power washer..any opinions on this can you still buy GUNK?

Ideally for aluminium casings you ought to use an Alkaline solution, it removes baked on oil and carbon, and importantly is water soluble. "Metasoak" aluminium cleaner.
Try www.aptcleaningsupplies.co.uk   they also sell Gunk and Jizer, which is water soluble.

Before I started rebuilding the Flaminia engine, I had every single casting/aluminium plate professionally chemically cleaned by a company in Birmingham. This was the best thing I have ever done in relation to an engine rebuild, and from now on any further rebuilds will incorporate this process. It was not expensive.

Re Karcher, if it's all coming apart I would have thought it OK to use but if any bearings or seals are still in the crank case you would be likely to force water behind them.

Hi all
thanks for the tips...I'm thinking soak it all in the metasoak stuff then blast it with the Karcher after plugging all the oilways etc up.
