Bit more done today. It was a real challenge to get the cam in. New drive gear doesn't have puller threads.

If I just line up the two gear marks I can't go wrong, right?


Hope so...





Also repainted and cleaned it as best I could without pulling it. I'll flush some used oil through the pan using the opening under the crank gear. That'll push any debris down to the drain plug that got in there during tear down. The rest can be picked up by the pump screen.

....now I'm stuck until my gasket set comes.
