Thanks Bill,

Here is a picture of the liner and I also have a question about the intake under the carb.

I'm new at taking engines apart and would also like to know the best way to get the crank and bearings out.

If you look at the picture of the intake, do you see the lines around the shaft? It looks like wear to me but I don't know if it's normal or not. This engine was run about 1 summer, maybe 3 gallons of Powermaster 15% through it, it was never wrecked. It got to the point it was more hassle to use than it was worth and I put it on the shelf.

Thanks for any help.

I finally got the crank out and the crank case is scored like the crankshaft (picture 2)
