        Hi Steven,

        Thanks for the message

        Yes it would be of interest as long as its not seized and the shaft is straight. How much do you want for it please?

  If you can get a free replacement, that's great .................. providing the crankshaft length isn't really short, you can actually straighten the shaft.  I've a tool I picked up on Ebay secondhand..... it bolts onto the bottom of the engine and a large bolt aplies pressure to the the side of the shaft to bend it straight...... there's actually youtube videos of the tool being used. I'm sure some dealers will have access to one of these.   Haven't actually tried it out yet but seemed a good gadget to buy for £35 though I suspect I might never use it and will end up reselling it on Ebay!
