Some Notes on Rebuilding Engines

Well, it's done. The engine for my truck is rebuilt and I have installed it. I thought I would take the opportunity to go over some of the things I have learned over time about rebuilding engines. My very first rebuild was a one lung motorcycle engine, and I had an owners manual and some basic tools. I think I was 13 at the time. Back then, an owners manual gave you the instructions needed to do that kind of job. Today, not so much. I think they give you instructions on putting air in the tires with a warning not to suck on the inflator while depressing the air trigger.
