Mood: Finally gotten over the 748R getting stolen thing. Actually, no i haven't !
Be careful, i had swirly little bits of swarf on my 96 748 bp.
Crankshaft oil way plug was unwinding itself and grinding away on the inside of the cases.
One blown main bearing and new pistons later ( £1340, thank you ).
This type of swarf will be Ali rather than steel, if you are comfident you can tell what you have got then all might be well.
