My engine was due for an overhaul and I thought it might be fun to do it myself. I am going to post some of the pictures and assembly steps here. I will not be able to post everything I did b/c I just didn't document it that carefully. There are many measurements and assembly steps that need to be taken, of which I just didn't take a picture, sorry.
Also, I took all the pictures with my phone, so sorry they are such poor quality. Hopefully you can get an idea of what I did.
My first day I worked on getting the crank shaft seal in place and the gear on the crank shaft. Getting the shaft seal on is a bear, it requires a special tool, for which, I paid $100.
Next is the gear there are lots of instructions in the manual to make sure that it is firmly seated on the crank. Including tapping with a punch and checking with a feeler gage, finally after torquing the screw the saftey is bent.
