    A moderator on one of forums made a big deal out if using those bearings. He said if you remove a seal on one side you could damage the bearing or contaminate it. “A human hair could ruin the bearing” guys chimed saying they’ve been doing for 30 years and no problems. His response was some people smoke for 30 years and never get cancer. 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️. I did mine exactly as this guy did. Thanks for the video, very helpful.

    Did you increase the throttle to change and stabilize the reading?

  • @Louisxs650

    Mine were doing the same. It's because your hanger is warm out at the bottom. It's that little tab that the pin from the rollers sit on behind the brake shoe. It's warn and lowers your entire brake shoe and the pin on top binds cause it's not aligned anymore. Pis up on your brake shoe when it's hanging like that and it'll go right in.

    Thats like the welding inspection work i did the last 14 years. Mostly the powder is for hot surfaces because otherwise the oil will vaporate. Nice job you did. I have a 1940 Opel Kadett and the engine is almost the same.

    Mr Karla, I really enjoy your videos. I drove a ‘30 Model A every day for 7 years as my work car. I belonged to MARC/MAFCA San Diego. Even so, there were very many things I never learned to do since I was a low-paid enlisted man during those 7 years. I never overhauled a transmission. Your instructions are very clear, succinct and concise. But my 74-year-old eyes aren’t very good and I can’t see through your hands. Would it be possible for you to use a pointer, wooden, plastic, laser or otherwise, to point out things in deep, dark places? Thanks for your consideration, Bob

    There are some pretty amazing sealers out there these days. I'd damn sure give sealing that cooling system up with one of those on the bench before I'd throw a bunch of money at a "maybe" repair stitching. And by the way, how much air pressure are you putting to that block? Its pretty easy to make leaks with excessive pressure and AIR IS THINNER THAN WATER.

  • @deeremeyer1753
    @deeremeyer1753 7 років тому

    It looks to me like you could just as easily use the cylinder head itself. You'd have to flip the engine over and work from the bottom side looking for leaks or simply use a shut-off valve on your air supply, pressurize the block and see if it holds pressure. I've seen the "stitching" videos and I read about the process long ago but honestly I'm not sure why anyone would go clear down the cylinder wall "stitching" the block if its going to be bored and sleeved anyway. Obviously if a guy is going to rebuild an engine completely for a full restoration or race use, he'd want the block repaired properly, but I have a feeling there were tons of those old engines running around back in the day with cracks in the and nobody ever had a clue. I don't think they had pressurized cooling systems and typically cracks get smaller as the block heats up rather than larger. The low compression ratio might prevent any leakage of cylinder pressure into the cooling system anyway. I think there's also a pretty good chance that will a full modern rebuilt to gnat's ass specs and particularly with big compression and temperature increases in a high-performance applications, even a "good" block via pre-overhaul pressure test might end up cracked anyway.
