Chaps.. does anyone have to hand the outer diameter of the crank pulley for a 12CC engine?
Thanks as ever

Thanks Chaps

PS: Shall we start the Dave MG splinter group?
David Cox

It could be a sharp splinter. I'm often a thorn in the side Dave :-)

Hi Daves,
I have nothing to contribute but felt compelled to post something.

Me too, I just went to check the pulley diameter on my engine in the shed but it's facing the wrong way and can't be turned easily.

They have been a few sole Dave threads before and certainly high % Dave threads but I doubt they could be found easily in the archive.

Remind me a bit of the Not the Nine O'clock News sketch about the Austin Ambassador IIRC made entirely by Roberts, see youtube if interested.
David Billington

I think we can start a Rob splinter group too. I remember that sketch.

Rob,

You really should post under a "Dave" pseudonym or we may have to ask the webmaster to provide name filtering so only "Dave" or similar is allowed to post on such a thread.

BTW a mate was down at the weekend and amoungst other things he mentioned the Monty Python 2 sheds sketch, never heard of it myself but found it on youtube and quite good. I must have been out of the country at the time, like for maybe 12 years.

well it all goes to prove that although you don't need to be mad to buy/restore/run/repair a midget it's certainly not an incumberance if you are.
well done, Chaps!
