I will try to get pictures of the following up shortly.



I just had my rebuilt motor torn down due to excessive oil consumption. As it turns out, the motor has way more than a little wear on ALL the irons. By way more, I mean that the person who pulled just tore it back down was suprised that they were reusable at all.



Right now, I'm in a hell of a bind. I just paid to have it rebuilt a month ago and now I'm having to do it again. This time, I'm going to have to replace a lot of things. It wouldn't have been as bad it they had been done up front but after paying for TWO rebuilds, I'm not sure I can afford it.



So far, it looks like I need to replace EVERY iron. The faces of all of them are grooved roughly .005. From the way it appears, the grooving has caused the oil control ring carriers to wear more than the current builder has seen before.



The housings are grooved but usable if need be. The motor has 100 miles on the rebuild...Atkins seals. They have already been worn down approximately .005-.006 and you can feel grooves in them if you run your fingernail across it.



Does anyone have these items that they would be willing to part with for a reasonable price?



I can be reached via PM or at reesesrx7@yahoo.com.
