Hi guys,
I need to remove the one-piece conrod from a Victa Powertorque engine. I took off all the easy stuff, now the pin the secures the piston rod to the flywheel is what I think is next. I'm not too sure if it is screwed in clockwise like a normal screw or anticlockwise. I'm going to use a metal pin and a hammer to do the job and I don't want to damage anything.
Many thanks!
Max

Hi guys,
removing the conrod was actually easier than expected!
Would you install a standard or an oversized piston? The cylinder has not been rebored but the engine is at least 10 years old.
Thanks,

If theres only small scratches if any, I have thrown a set of std rings in one thats 30 years plus old before.
