Inside a newly-acquired engine

[Steve Jones]

Phoenix crank, Austin rods, bores look good from what can be seen. I stripped my old hill climb engine last week and it looked just like this inside although the sump only had a thin film of residue in the bottom. Worth running a magnet through the sump contents and I'd check the big ends for signs of wear or breaking up.

Phoenix rods look like this.
