Nut Dropped inside engine ... Any ideas

[bradh511]

been doing lots of work on my little gs 125 when i was pulled the barrel off i was putting 10mm back on it so i didnt lose them was chatting to the neighbour and dropped one above engine and it fell staright trought the crankase mouth what a ***** tryed a magent pick up bent around the crank shacking engine up side down but no luck any ideas ... Only one i can think is take it to someone who has a camera to look inside... Any more usefull info ive drained all the oil ect

Wash the sump out with some diesel to allow the nut to move about freely, give the engine a shake and tip it upside down, hopefully it should either drop out or at least roll to a more accessible place. Allow diesel to drain, add some fresh oil and flush that out and then refill to correct level.

Are you sure that the nut is magnetic? If it proves impossible to remove, replace the sump plug with a magnetic one and forget about it until the next oil change.

Its possibly found its way into the gearbox tho I defo wouldn't risk leaving it in there . as said maybe a bit of diesel to break down the oil and keep shaking it

A lot of magnetic pick-up tools came with an led in the end to make retrieval easier.

Tip: I know it's a little late but next time stuff every orifice on an open engine with rag to prevent such inconveniences.

Yeh I know about stuffing rag down crankcase yeh magnetic pick up tool tried one perpously bending it so I coulf get past the crank didn't work that well going to put inspection camera and trying. Going attach broken magnet with light to some stiff hose .. Or buy a fleixble tool...

As for the chappy who said leave it in and fit it with magnetic sump plug ... Great idea ill find half of my teeth or crank attached to it won't I ? After it wizzes round my engine and does nothing but damage.. If I was to do this fancy paying the. Bill to strip and fix it...

Like you'd ever remove a sump... unless of course you dropped a nut down there.
