Santa Bob Arrived!

Our generous friend Bob sent an Enya .09 and a vintage Sterling kit to me. Thank you so much friend

Already disassembled engine for cleaning and polishing cylinder. I like the as found condition because I like to clean and polish engines. I found that gasket between crankcase and shaft became dust due time, need to make one. I don't polish crankcase, want to left it as sandblasted aluminium. All screws need to be replaced with new ones, I think that Allen hex screws are suitable. This is my first .09 engine and searched about technical document and found this interesting history about Enya .09 3001

Again thanks Bob, I prefer as found engines, because restoring engines is a fun

I am going to send photos in future.

Thanks for info Bob.
