You got it! Pulling engines is more fun then work........that's what happened to me
25 years of sitting at a desk drawing elevators looking out the window at my truck wishing I was camping/wheeling
So I used the elevator career to further my camping / wheeling experience. Pulling engines is more fun then work!
My back and knees hurt just sitting at this desk and then I get shooting pains up my arms if I have to draw for too many hours (work the mouse and keyboard)
All those body pains go away after a full day or turning wrenches, and I can sleep through the night because my body is tired.
removing 3.0, check can be done before lunch
swap 4.0, check can be done in 3-5 days working slow and refreshing engines
install 5.0 into Jalepeno I would plan a couple of weeks for that one :)
Of course when you try to do all 3 at the same time with elevators, home school, home steading, build a few other trucks, rebuild a few atv engines...... that's when it gets interesting
I do kinda miss having only one truck...the BII used to get all of my attention........
my neighbor bought a 2008 Kawasaki Brute force 750i, it has a low end knock. Guess who is rebuilding the V twin?
I love a good challenge!! This one could be it...the V twin 4 stroke includes the clutches and transmission....... I have the engine out, getting ready to tear it down and split the cases. This is in my spare time, thank GOSH for the information age........although not many good threads complete for doing this engine start to finish.. there will be one now I am about to sign up for Kawi riders forum..........
