Subject: [Ducati] Engine sized

I don't know about Brad, but when I rebuilt the engine for a Cessna
120, I used our oven to replace the valve guides(they were in the
freezer. My wife actually held the barrels with pot-holders on a
couple of 2x4s while I drove the new guides in. Sure, things tasted
a bit odd for a while after, but we're both motor-heads and it's all
good. That thing's still running fine after ten years! She's a keeper!

You know about the funny tasting cakes How?  Moonbeam

Try finding an old electric oven (recycling centers or appliance dealers) and placing it in at 150-200 for a while. Hand held
heat guns are another idea, but take longer and will not apply heat as evenly.

Refrain from using wife's kitchen oven. Makes the cakes taste funny and sets off smoke detectors.
