Join me as we continue to tackle this once seized up Honda XL185s engine and try to make it into something worth the kick. PART 7
In this video we will be reassembling the top end of this motor.
Clean, lube, install, torque.
With the Lower crank timing gear a little wonky. Let's see if we can still get this thing to to come out on time and rotating nicely.
The light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter!
Enjoy
