JamesSP,
Thx for the warning to lock the engine before disassembly or risk damage. Can you specify the damage? I bought a roller and just dropped the engine. Looks like the PO overheated it - 2 melted spark plug tubes but oil in filter & sump is clean. Want to disassemble but cannot rotate at all so TDC cannot happen. Any thoughts how I can avoid the damage in your warning?
