A little heat
and some light tapping removed the spacer plate from
the gas generator flange. |
|
I guess this
is where all the dust has come from, I hope it looks
a lot worse than it actually is.

After a careful
cleaning session with a fine wire brush, the old gasket
and best part of the erosion has been removed, it looks
a lot better now. However the pitting may be of concern
in the future, also the Air Impingement starter pipes
can now be clearly seen.

The Free Power
Turbine unit after removal and cleaning. This would look
good on any ones mantle piece. |

View of the power
turbine wheel after cleaning and there's not a mark on
it, which is good news.

|
Crumpled high
tension lead from the igniter box, I guess by looking
at some other web sites
this is actually quite normal.

The two Canon
electrical connectors used on the engine. As a note for
those of you that need to get hold of the opposing connectors,
the part numbers are IT3106F18-8S and IT3106E24-12S which
are available from Servo.

Now I will have
to find or make a gasket the will fit between the gas
generator housing and the power turbine
guide assembly. This is of course that I end up using
the engine as a Turbo Shaft and not a Turbo Jet. |

A nice clean gas generator section.
Now I'm torn between making a turbo jet or a turbo shaft. |
