I took out the gap on the Lathe today , had a little job to do , took some getting out !
The bolts were loose enough but it was stuck in there with grime and swarf , after finishing the job I cleaned it all down and replaced it , fits like a glove ! A few pics for anyone who has never tried it !
I wouldn't try it , I thought a bike casing was aluminium and got to tigging it added a bit of aluminium filler and it exploded on me , then I found out it was magnesium and had to fill the big hole in first !
I've got a company coming out , supposedly, didn't turn up yesterday after I sat in all day ! Supposed to be out this morning to sort it out , we shall see
No ! squirted some 3in1 oil in it got lots of dirt out , I will try the brake fluid and graphite paste , not convinced graphite paste is the thing to do but I will have a go tomorrow !!
