Trev who bothers to fence inside an engine cowl of a popular arf nowadays to keep your methanol saito cool? nobody i can see,hav'nt seized one yet.

Acdc i'd be wary of anything i picked up at a swap meet reminds you of those smokey late sixties club nights out on the town.Never knew what you would come down with in the following days.
Well. so far only have one Saito out of the bunch that needed something. Of course its the one in the Biper. Ran the engine up yesterday, and while it ran perfectly, you can hear the bearing howling. There is also a tad bit of play in the shaft now. Guess I will have to order a new set, or see if I can find the ones out of my other one that I cracked the case on and see if they are OK. They were practically new, but I may have damaged one taking the thing apart.
