961D Progress Update

I found a mechanic who is familiar with this engine (he rebuilt one last winter). He's a recently retired heavy equipment mechanic with the county and he lives just two miles from us.

He and I will start work in late October. He's happy to have me work with him so that I can learn about the rebuilding process. Prior to our start - hopefully next week, I'll drop the oil pan and take a look at the underbelly.

A fellow board member has a spare engine with low hours available should I need it.

I'll keep you all posted when we start work this fall.

Thank you all again for your help, ideas, and encouragement!

For sure! I'm really glad this fellow is willing to work with me - and am lucky he still does this kind of work. In the summer, at least, he spends most of his time enjoying his retirement by fishing :)
