Yes, we were doing advance exploration between Dawson and Mayo mapping gold deposits. It was totally another world...We would just get drop off & pick up in the middle of no-where, along with a bunch of cariboos, bears, wolfs, and gold panners!!!

Quick question for all,

Is a Aisin 1" bore Brake Master Cylinder (http://www.trail-gear.ca/default.cfm?fa=products&prodcategoryid=66) bigger than my stock 91 4cyl MC?

Could this be an upgrade to up my poor-medium braking performance?

(I have 2 pistons calipers)

I drove 200km, 300k more to go before oil change & valve adjustment. I'm leaving Smithers to Victoria this Friday, it'll be engine's first road trip again!

Finally took apart my old engine. That was fun!!!

Have a look, my untrained eye can't really see obvious cause for cylinder #4 failure.
