3/04/2019 opening the engine block

Today we removed seven screws to get into the engine block. We took lots of photos of the inside of the engine. It was full of oil so we spent some time cleaning oil out of the engine. We also cleaned the oil off the crank cover case. We also took off the oil thrower. it makes oil travel around the engine block. It flicks it around the engine.  We cleaned that and made sure it was not damaged. The gasket broke but we will jut place it back in place once we get to rebuilding it. We also learnt that when the engine is on the power stroke the mark on the camshaft and the crankshaft have to be at the same place.
