Tony phoned me earlier with some bad news
My crank pulley has gone oval but the crank is ok. My exhaust cam was also miles out from the correct timing.
He was also moaning about nothing being loctited, and lots of things are lose
Bloody cars

Although it is bad news, every cloud has a silver lining.
The car will now be even better than you thought it would be.
Do all cam pulley bolts have to be locktited? Ive got adjustable ones that ive timed myself but not put anything on them. Im now thinking i should? I might take em out 1 at a time and do it.
And i know i shouldnt but im pmsl at the coolant.
I can picture your face and all the thinking of what to do next and how much it will cost.....
(ive been there myself many times)
To find out theres nothing wrong lol.

its also a good idea to mark all bolts up with a bit of red paint
that way you can physically see them move if they did
i do this with every bolt
