My big end and main crankshaft bearings for my Lister A are pretty ropey so
I was idly prodding around on the Web, looking for spares (unlikely) repairs
(expensive ?) re-makes (maybe) Indian spares etc. By accident I came across
the Belzona site, I knew they did versions of 'plastic metal' for filling
and repairs but always thought this sort of thing was a bodge.
The stuff of interest (1131 bearing metal) is a sort of two part
plastic/resin goo that sticks to anything, sets like rock, made specifically
for - you guessed it repairing bearings.
Can't be any good can it ...
anyone tried or experimented ?
Still looking for 'conventional' crank and big end bearing fixes as I'm not
convinced.
