Hi all. I'm needing some help & guidance from this awesome Forum here. I have been toiling away at getting my TY175B going after sitting idle for three or so years. So I've cleaned the fuel tank of old fuel & got ride of the rust, installed new points, coil, carby kit hoses & air filter. so after some fiddling & guess work it fired up & runs well but the clutch had a few problems as explained in another post ( jumps when put in gear & won't totally disengage). so I pulled the clutch out cleaned it, emery papered the steel plates measured the friction plates which are still ok as were the springs. couldn't get the push rod & ball bearing out not matter what I did. Tried grease on the end of an allen key, magnet, air pressure, flooding it out leaving on its side for a good while hoping gravity would get it out but no go.
Anyway I put it all together went to put the sump plug back in only to find it had stripped out
, only to find the raised sump plug section (at sometime under previous ownership) has had a half of it break off & had been JB welded.
. So Im not keen ATM to strip it down as I would love to get a bit of riding out of it then do a rebuild. so if any one has any ideas all brain storming welcome . Also if anyone has a Right side crank case they don't mind selling please let me know. I have had a suggestion of stripping it & have a block welded on & re drill & tap the hole but if I'm going that far I would rebuild the engine I think.
cheers
Wil
