10. "but,,before you put any bearings on the crank,,place them
    in the lower case half first and gently,,very gently mark
    them with a felt tip pen VERY good point, I don't know why
    I didn't do it in this video, forgot, getting to old.
    (-: Thanks for posting that tip.
11. Back in the early 60s I use to work for an authorized Ford
    engine rebuilder and they had problems with cam lobes wiping
    cylinder scuffing. Ford told them to start mixing STP with
    oil and to coat all the parts during assembly, it cured all
    their problems. I have been using it ever since. Mix 60% STP
    with 40% oil and coat all moving parts during assembly. Use
    straight STP on the cam lobes. Yes, there is other stuff
    on the market today and some pack lube with new cams but STP
    works fine.
12. very very very very good videos, quick question, this should
    be very simular if it is a 2.0L bus en gine and i didnt
    quite get what you said the 60/40 mix of oil and stp you use
    to lubricate with the brush?
13. I wish i had this man to teach me when i was younger,,forty
    years before the internet,,heheheh. Old school,,and
    fantastic for it man. I am not that much younger than him
    really,,but i look upto him,and have a real respect for what
    he knows,,too many people these days,young and old talk a
    good job,,but cant put a screw in without breaking the
    scredriver man,heheheh,,good man,,honest too.
14. I am an expert on these old lumps,,so trust me please,,he
    knows what he is doing,,old school,,but,,before you put any
    bearings on the crank,,place them in the lower case half
    first and gently,,very gently mark them with a felt tip pen
    along the case joint line,,this way,when you come to drop in
    the crank your not turning them round and round for ages
    trying to find the dowles,,just find the marker pen
    lines,,easy,,but he is magic to see man,,another good
    thing,,he wipes his hands all the time.
15. "not to be rude" Its not rued, its ignorant. "I didn't say
    it, he asked me to write it!!!" I guess your doomed to be a
    follower. But I hope the videos help you Young Ones in
    some small way. Good luck with your projects. Jack
16. not to be rude but my friend thinkd you should put
    everything down and grab your nuts real hard to stop the
    shakyness problem your havin' I didn't say it, he asked me
    to write it!!! Maybe that's preventive maintenance!! he
    says. He's just joking and its funny but I already told
    him you probably know that. He's a Bug Nut also and says
    thanks for your work in postin' these instructional, and
    informative videos. Without guidance from elders the Young
    Ones wont know the way!!!
17. A great job and am enjoying watching as im rebuilding mine
    next week. did i miss the cam bearings?
18. scoring of the bearings is more of a problem on the inside
    of the bearing rather than the outside (where bearing meets
    case). Doing it the way he has should be no problem unless
    there is no lubricant between the crank and the inside of
    the bearings. (he did lube in vid 3)
19. rotating the bearings like that doesnt score them does it?
20. great job
21. A thing of beauty....Thanks!!
