new engine:
-1.5 kg
+15 kw
that is the first time I am doing more than routine stuff, so this took me definitly longer than I initially thought.
Quite a few unexpected issues like needing different screws when "the other engine is basically the same, just with a few inner modifications".
Unfortunatly I am not yet finished, waiting for a few parts to be delivered during next week.
Edit: in the mean time all parts have arrived and it
ought to be final by now, yet for reason unknown the fuel pump doesnt deliver any liquids to the engine.
Also I ordered a wrong gasket for the gearbox top lid, be damned online shop not having the correct part but a similar one + and me not paying attention.
Edit 2: fuel pump is working, force feeding it with fuel the engine is running fine, but once the pump is again connected to the fuel tank it stays dry.
Tried blowing air to the tank to hear if it goes through, makes me assume there is a one-way valve as it doesnt bubble up.
Now comes the ugly part if figuring out how to best remove all bottom side covers to get to the fuel line.
Edit 3: finally everything is put in place and working. It was well worth the effort
The above issue was caused by the fuel line being squeezed, preventing any flow.
This happened because I didnt see the line getting caught when inserting the gearbox into the tunnel
