Engine Questions
#1
Just got a few questions that have still got me scratching my head.

1. First one, when picking my engine apart, noticed that only one cylinder has these hook shape attachments. I've got no idea, what they are/purpose/ why there is only two of them?

   

2. Cracked valve seats. Is it worth pumping money and effort into a head with cracks? I'm sure it will still work fine, just wondering if it would be worth sourcing a new head!

   

3. Removing HDI rods. From the comfort of my shed removing the rods was fine, but whilst Jonny and I were at the scrap yard the other day, we hit a bit of a problem. Does the crankshaft need to be removed to drop them out?
