time to have hot bath

washed the engine block and transmission with pressured hot water. pressure wasn't enough ( Karcher K4.99 ) but still did a good job, something with 160 - 180 bar would do a lot better though. that W5 cleaner made it a lot easier. yes I did lubricate after washing it with water. don't want them get rusty.

oil passages around lifters got cleaner that I could notice them. and did a bit honing on piston skirts since there will be new rings coming.

yet couldn't remove the pulley, I don't wanna heat it up to pull out, waiting for pulley removing tool. probably will get it soon.

removed the pulley and got the everything out from the block. meanwhile ordered a new timing chain.

pistons were full carbon deposits so I made piston soup

got the shift rail fixed and smoothed the inner side of shift fork in Jyvaskyla.

now it looks totally fine.

recovered the pictures from phone.

Nice clean pistons. What solvent you used in piston soup?
