[Mgs] watch your chains

Yeah, I can imagine that underwear was tossed out!

Did you do a rebuild or put a 'new' engine in?

A link broke.  That half-second got the adrenaline running, I can
assure you.  I'll be getting some straps before the next time I do
this, which hopefully won't be any time soon.

Fortunately, the transplanted engine seems to be a success--it runs
smoother and quieter, even before I get it properly tuned.  It also
develops oil pressure on the starter, which is reassuring.
