There, that's the kiss of death...new lump in a couple of weeks...

BB junior has a 90something thousand mile curvy.Put a newer engine in at about 90000 because it was cheap and available(bit like me

)but the old lump was OK apart from a bit of squeal on taking up the clutch and a clunk from the starter gear. Still got the original in the shed.
