The 747
Spent another couple of hours in the shed this arvo and got everything disconnected. Ready to unbolt the engine now.

Yay nice, kinda sad but will be flying better than ever in no time. .
So was doing some thinking bout this the other day and in theory if this happened in the middle of nowhere and you had to MacGyver yourself home would it be possible? (Not that you ever want this to happen of course lol. . .)
Always thoughts were take off sump and remove snapped conrod off crank and leave piston and other broken bits up in bore sitting there most likely safely jammed. Seal up block and sump if required with whatever on hand, silicone plastic packaging etc. Disconnect valve train from affected cylinder by removing pushrods (?), then in theory wouldn't be putting boost into crankcase or pushing broken bits further down. Isolate injector to avoid filling sump oil with diesel, just direct into bottle or something.
Guess issues I thought of were would the engine be so out of balance it would self destruct and without bearing in crank journal would oil pressure be insufficient guess you could duct tape bearing in or block oil passage possibly? Any other potential issues haven't thought of?
Anyways just a few things ticking through my head the other day definitely don't want to be in this position but always like to get out under own steam wherever possible if that's what it gets to. .

Not sure how Rossco but an old mate up FNQ recently limped a similar home to Cairns some 500+km. Must have dropped ‘all’ the bits into the sump and without a block busted hole too I would imagine. Isolating its injector is interesting I agree, must have diluted some serious sump oil home and or Hansel & Gretel trailed a screwdriver hole home we hope not!

I worked with a Scottish guy many years ago and he told me the story of how he discovered his old morris had dropped the oil ring out of one of the pot and was belching oil smoke. He was getting married and the newly weds were to embark on some epic trip around europe in ths car, so ON THE DAY BEFORE THE WEDDING, he decided to pull the motor out and remove the piston and conrod from the cyclinder. He worked thru the day and early evening, started it up and it shook the crap out of everything and then almost instantly he realised the out of balance issue - so he stripped everything back out, replaced the old piston and rings, put it all back to together and left the spark plug off the cylinder, finished the job at 5am, wedding at midday, fell asleep at the reception at the bridal table. Car ran with reduced power and they completed the trip then he stripped it down upon his return and did the job properly.

The 747
I am just waiting on a quote from Patrolapart for the engine and all the bits and pieces, gaskets etc that I will need and then I can put the order in. Hopefully have it secured by the end of the week and then we can organise to throw it in hopefully some time in November.

Thats awesome mate, freshest TD42T in Moe
Time to strip that engine mate and slowly plug away in the shed ensuring all gaskets and glue are off the bolt ons and clean them all up.
That was the most time consuming thing for me but do it once, take your time and get them all mint!
Same when you get your new block, clean everything up on the block ready to bolt straight up.
Check out the manual to see the different torque settings and make sure your torque wrench can work in those ranges, etc too.
Are you going to get a Vac pump or blank it off?
