Problems!

Work on the engine is at a bit of a standstill! While Red and I were trying to get the motor properly centered on the engine steady rest, we noticed a few parts that needed replacing.

The spacer however is broken, and the insulator has totally perished as has the rubber part of the retainer. Mine looks like this:
