I have three partial Victa full crank engines I am taking to scrap and wanted to see if I could fully separate the aluminium crankcase from the rest. It took a bit of work but I got there. Is it worth it,? Probably not, but it was interesting to see what it takes. There's one left to take apart.
Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
