Hi Folks!
I'm rebuilding the engine in my 2002S-- the crankshaft has been on back order for 6 weeks and I can't get an ETA from anyone. Apparently there is no stock anywhere on this item and they are working on making new ones? I'm also told it's possible that it might be 6 months before the parts are made, as they are made in batches and only when enough demand surfaces.
Thinking of possibly just buying a re-built short block, or maybe looking for a used engine (don't like that idea much)..
The crank I have is really spun - there was NO conrod bearing left on one of the pins (bought it that way) - about 0.5mm wear so I don't think I can have the old one machined and use oversized conrod bearings...
Any suggestions? Any other places to look for parts?
Regards...
