Lumps in my gravy!!
Ok, well I decided to pull the engine out of the 3 wheeler before I tore the engine down, and good thing I did, I figured out what was leaking oil from the front of the case, a crack in the case, likely from someone else having the case halves apart at an earlier point. Now I am pondering whether I should even fix this thing, or find something more suitable, maybe something with a starter and reverse. Oh the hits keep coming.
Didn't get alot done on the frame today either, except beefing up the bulkhead by adding some 3/16" plate to the tab areas, and added 2 more supports for the now welded in roll cage before running out of argon.
I did manage to snap a pic of the broken off spark plug in the hole, the shiny part in the middle of the hole is the ground strap still in there with the threads.
