I've got the top end of the motor torn apart, the heads
dissasembled, etc. Took a mess of water and mud out of the
intake and cylinder bores. I was able to get the broken spark
plug out of the head without too much trouble (a couple of heat up
and cool down cycles, lots of liquid wrench, a few drill bits, and
an easy out). I basically need to clean everything up and put it
back together. Haven't worked on it in a few days though - been
busy with other stuff. :-P Hopefully I'll get around to it
in these next couple of weeks though. Right now, I'm hoping the
bottom end is OK and I'll be able to button it back up and all
will be well in the world again. ;-)
