david1972 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 As long as your legal mate, there's not a lot anybody can do, even if they do feel put out. We have a neighbour who opens their patio doors first thing in the morning and all you can hear is their kid screaming on, day after day after day after.....nothing anyone can do about it though Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideSam Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Engine in place, hooked up, turn the key... *tink tink tink* Valves don't sound great.

stants Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Gutted mate,if I ever need to pull an engine I'll be asking you for tips, reckon it will all be up and running for japshow ? Drove over 7 hours yesterday had noisy valves on start up today but could be due to the fact it's been stood outside in cold overnight for a week instead of being tucked up nice and warm, goes away when up to temp so may treat her to an impromptu oil & filter just for good measure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideSam Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 It's could be worse- the bottom end was quiet when it was turned over though. Getting it running for Japshow is easy, getting it running for the re-map on Wednesday might be a bit more tricky!

WideSam Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Engine's pretty much back in place- it turned out to be the plate under the flywheel had bent up and was snagging on the back of the clutch. Could've been fixed in about 10 minutes. Oh well... Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 And it's the wrong way round. ... She helped me with something scooby[emoji15] so in her eyes I probably owe her something girly [emoji57] But I did point out all the imperfections in the bodywork which was a pre emt strike for getting the paintwork sorted [emoji6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m mulling with the idea but need to glean more info. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 I saw a place online that was selling the conditioner & waterless stuff for quite cheap, you've just got to remember unless you tell the garage at major service time they'll just change it anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaulson Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 All good things about waterless. there is no reason why you shouldn't do it. It's expensive(ish) to do but you wont be spending any extra money on coolant so worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking for some info on waterless and the flat 4/6 engine before I make any decisions really but any input is greatly appreciated!
