IT wouldn't hurt to put some on the bolts, just to ensure it will not leak in the future. Cheers

@@WorkshopRebuild thank you! Did you do that? I’m just afraid the silicone will ball up at the tip of the Bolt when I thread it in and cause it to snap. I already had one snap off and don’t want it to happen again.

@@diesel_dude08 I did not, but I wouldn't hurt to add some. If you apply it to the threads of your bolts, it shouldn't push downwards. You do not want to overtighten these bolts as they are quite small! I hope you were able to get the damaged part out without too much hassle.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you for your kind words, it's much appreciated! The reason why a brass shim is being used, is due to the circlip end. With this shim in place, no scuffs or damage can be made to the piston. The ends of the circlips usually have a "sharp" edge as they are sheered from factory. One could opt for snap rings, but this is what I do when I install retaining clips. Great questions by the way. Regards Andreas

Yes, it is a beautiful engine thanks to the engineers! I‘ve just had the opportunity to build it from ground up with newly refurbished components😊👍🏼 Regards Andreas

I‘m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for your feedback as well😊👍🏼 Regards Andreas

Hi there, Unfortunately I do not have a Yanmar engine that I'm currently working on. The injector nozzle features a heat shield which is made of plastic and an aluminum crush washer. The plastic heat shield protects the injector nozzle and it's slid on first, then the crush washer. Once the injector clamp bolts are torqued, the washer should spread and hold the heat shield in place. You should install the heat shield as it protects the injector. I hope this helps, Regards Andreas

I'm glad this engine isn't perfect! Haha

I fully agree with you on that! Especially with their older engines

I assume they do, but I'm not 100% sure!

This is a proper duplex timing chain and totally overkill for this engine!

@@WorkshopRebuild no it’s a great thing .you look at bmw car engines now they have nasty simplex ones that snap like carrots.i had one of these air cooled BMW bikes when it got stolen it had 134.000 miles on it never let me down

Because the points have been adjusted for the startup. Not every detail was shown in this video...

Your new bike is strikingly nice and I hope your find yourself taking it out on great road trips! I really value your feedback and appreciate your kind words. My fascination with engines and mechanical systems has been a lifelong passion, which is why I enjoy sharing these types of videos. I gained my foundational knowledge during my apprenticeship in Switzerland, where I honed various skills, including the meticulous assembly of industrial machinery to high standards. I dream of working on aircraft engines one day, as my interest in aircraft, particularly radials and vintage Continentals, runs deep. Perhaps someday I'll have the chance to participate in an engine rebuild or similar project. Thank you again. Regards Andreas

Thank you for your valuable advice! I will keep this in mind for future projects. Regards Andreas

Red indeed, unless you don't know the purpose. Thanks for showing your character 😉

@@WorkshopRebuild Rouge : pas bleu ? Bleu en loctite permet souplesse sans surchauffe pour remise en question. Selon capacité.

@@terrainslopins865 Correct, Red and not Blue. If you understand the importance of the components, you'll choose the l correct Loctite. Not only Red & Blue exist...

The camera was shaking on the table as I made this video, and in the editing software „video-stabilizing“ was used. This then made the background stable, but made the crankshaft and camshaft rotate unevenly. I‘m not sure how it was done in the video, but that was the only way I could used this clip. The crankshaft am camshaft were both running true and I am sure of this, thanks to a dial indicator. Thank you for your concerns🍻

Thank you for your comment and kind words! I had great fun assembling this engine and I'm happy to have shared it with you. If you wish to see the full details on this engine assembly, you can check out the step-by-step engine assembly here: ua-cam.com/video/I05J7DHoB-Q/v-deo.html Thanks again! Regards Andreas

That's a very cool project with some nice upgrades, compared to the /5 motorcycles. I will have a project similar to your in the near future...it's just waiting in the background at the moment. More details coming soon! Wishing you great success on your project. Regards Andreas

Thank you, Sir! Regards Andreas

No, this is the correct gasket.

I'm glad you were able to enjoy this video and thank you for your feedback! It sure is satisfying when you reach the correct bolt torque and it clicks to verify you've achieved your setting. I guess shop echo enhances the feeling as well haha. Regards Andreas

Hey, someone has to do it! haha. Cheers

I'm glad this video helped you out with your own JD400 axle repairs! Cheers

Side quests, you know! haha

I appreciate your words! Cheers

It’s definitely underpowered, but boy does it sound nice😉

Thank you so much!

Thanks a lot!

Yes, this engine is built overly well for a 600cc!

In hindsight, I could have added all that to this video too, but I shared a 1-1/2 hour assembly video on this engine for you to see here: ua-cam.com/video/I05J7DHoB-Q/v-deo.html This video shares every step of the assembly process, from the tooling to the torque specs and so on. This BMW R60/5 motorcycle restoration has been a cool project so far and I'm very close to the final product. I admire this engine tremendously, as I see it as a piece of artwork myself. I can only be thankful to preserve such history and allow it to last another 50 years. Feel free to mention other brands, as each has its own strengths. No bike or engine is perfect (haha)! I hope you find an exciting project to start, and indeed, there's a wide availability of BMW airhead parts on the market. You can locate nearly everything from the crankshaft upwards, to gearbox components. While like other manufacturers, some parts are No Longer Available (NLA), numerous suppliers are actively manufacturing new parts. The BMW Airhead community's solidarity is truly remarkable! If you ever need assistance finding parts, feel free to reach out. Regards Andreas

@@WorkshopRebuild thanks for the detailed rebuild video and the offer to help track down rare parts! This is an excellent channel. Congratulations for such good work.

I would recommend 2 Big cans, or 3 smaller cans. Try to hit the hard-to-reach spots first and lay down light coats as you go. That way your paint will last until the end.

show me the feather you use
