Here's my problem. I'm building a guzzi for my wife. It's a v700 with an ambo engine. I ordered the replacement cylinders because I'm a loving husband. Went to install and realized one rod was very tight on the crank. Bearing was galled but crank is "fair". Rod on the little end has a bit of play. I have an 850 crank and rods. Should I tear it down or are they different parts altogether. Thanks! Also any Ducati experts or amateurs here? I have a 1975 860 gt with ignition problems.😉
Grind the crank. Bush the rods
One thing I noticed was a good bit of play from front to back on the crank with the front and rear bearing in place. Is this normal? Or did the previous guy omit some shims or something to control the end play.
Is there a preferred machine shop in the Arkansas Missouri area to turn this crank?
I'm nowhere near expert status, but do have a running '75 860GT. What's going on with yours?
No truer statement ever Hurry up Deuce , promised the Cedar Vale bunch you would make an appearance on this thing along with Uno on his er , unrestored loop Dusty
Well looks like I am going through the whole motor but I think I am in the right track. Just going to keep throwing money at it until I can't afford to sell it.
