Hello.

In Rotorua, looking for a replacement engine for a 1990 zuk.

Does anyone have one of these engines in good condition.

Cheers

Holy hell. That was quick.

Will just check with the owner of the zuk. Is it still in vehicle or ready to transport?

The latest update.....
Rod's gonna have a go at using some metal compound to relocate the key. He read about it on another suzuki forum.

Any hints or suggestion on the likelihood of this working. I've done it with a Prado 2LT crank pulley and had great success.

Will let you know after the weekend if the engine is still needed.

Cheers

Have heard of that option as the keyways flog out. Have also heard of putting a bigger key way in at 180 degrees (in both pulley and crank) so you have fresh steel to play with.

Latest update.
A mate came over from Tauranga and used a mig to partially fill the key way and a compound to do the rest. The zuk is driving around now. Fingers crossed.

Will pass on the engine. Thanks for the offer ToyRover.
