Two-Stroke May 1968


  • Editorial
  • Deek Day 1968
  • Deek Technique - more about the crankshaft reconditioning issues and bearings. DKW mechanic Edgar Frogley makes the point that a DKW crank is good for 100,000 miles (at least) so why are people pulling them out every 10,000 miles?  I mean, it's not an English car!
  • Two stroke V diesel engines
  • Modifications and repairs - sluggish starting and idle in cold weather (again), using Volkswagen 1200 brakes as replacement for Auto-Union components, clutch overhaul, mid-silencer noise, replacement and exhaust tuning.
  • "I am given to understand that the gearbox of an early left-hand drive 1000 will accept a 1200 Volkswagen engine. Would it be a reasonable conversion to undertake?
  • No, no, no,.... Oh, my gawd!!!!!!!"
  • Two-stroke aero engines
  • Czechoslovakia visit
  • Crankshaft installation sling
  • Letters to the editor - more crankshaft repair discussion, lubrication mixture, F102 in competition
  • Area activities
  • AGM report
