Help! Need to borrow a manual gearbox!

Right then, wanting to do some tests on the new engine before it goes in. Main one being a compression test. So want to rig up a flywheel, gearbox and starter motor.

 

So, even a knackered gearbox will be ok.

 

If anyone reasonably local to me has one I could borrow for a week, I'd be really grateful.

 

Thanks

    That could work out....I'm down at Dover on Monday night with a Van helping a friend out, so might stop off on the way back with it.

     

    Will keep you posted...cheers.

     

    In the meantime though, if there is anyone still local with one, I'd be most grateful.

     

    Thanks

    No problem, sounds like it could work quite well - will take it off the zed on sat anyway, and then if you want it on the way round its ready for you.

    Cheers guys....actually, come to think of it, ANY Zed gearbox will be ok I guess.

    Turn the motor over with an air ratchet on the crack pully .. save you loads a hassle

    Safe as turning any motor over with no oil pressure I guess :)

    you could take the belt from your cement mixer and use it on the front crankshaft pully. "Rem still no oil pressure"
