Saving Old Seagulls

hello to everybody
i have a kingfisher KLR 14C3 and i have an issue with my piston and the conection rod, they have a small play and i would like to ask what to do to repair it.
the little end is rather ok, but the holes of the piston where the pin fits is worn

thanks a lot

Welcome manos. The kingfisher is a very modern seagull, so not many people have taken them to bits. CharlesUK on this forum knows a lot about this particular model I believe.

Hello Adrian,

With Manos we had an unbelievable "barn find"!! We went to the lady that was running the Seagull branch until it closed and we buy all the parts that had left. The surprise was that we found one crank assembly for the kingfisher, at least the piston is the same like the one Manos has in his engine and the con rod is the seagull No3. That assembly is used but in quite good condition with no or almost no free play!

I think Manos will sleep with the crank assembly in his arms tonight

Be gentle with that crankshaft!
