Hi Dave
You've worried me to death now, I've got a 31 RN which, as far as I know, is still using the original engine internals.
Next winters project was an engine rebuild, hope it lasts that long.
There seems to be two schools of thought that cause crank failure. One is over revving and the other not revving enough !, probably both are correct
Buy an Austin 7 they said, It's easy to work on they said !
