Templar X motor rebuild journey
So, with the news that the vendor is sending me "something" to get my motor repaired, I thought I would start a pictorial journal of the rebuild.
The attached photo is for my reference as I begin this. I have done a handful of two-stroke top ends, but never a four-stroke. For those of you who talk about the need to check every bolt and Loctite it, I can assure you the motor mounts on mine were tight.... So tight in fact, that I split a 13mm socket trying to remove the lower, front mounts. I had an 18" breaker bar on it as the ratchet wasn't enough. I have never broken a socket before (this one was old-school Craftsman). Going to get some impact sockets to try again... Might need some heat! I am still planning on getting a whole new motor, but plan to attack this one anyway.
