AS41 Engine – Day 5 – Cracking the AH block open again.

Posted on 2019-04-27

It was sad but I had to finally crack the AH block open today.

I think this is the only time I ever need a 16mm wrench

It all came apart relatively easy. I mean, it is not like it has been together that long.

All apart!

I will say that I’m rather shocked that the aviation sealant seems to have disappeared off the case halves. Other than the bit that seeped out, it really doesn’t look like it is there. I am not sure if that is supposed to be what happens or not.

A lot of the redline assembly lube also completely degraded into a base liquid oil.
