O.k...Here's a wee update......
First of all Thank's Andrew (1jnrwrx) for fucking me around for a day & 1/2 saying he was getting an engine hoist for me & then no showing TWICE....You are an unreliable twat!
Thanks Brent for doing a mission for me in the (non air conditioned) ute & coming all the way from woop woop to help me, Greatly appreciated mate!
I did a quick trip downsouth for Christmas with the family but came back this arvo to get stuck into my project.....
O.k here's where I left off Thursday night:
I headed to the shed at about 9pm & by 12 I was looking at this....
My very sad looking engine bay:
Wiring will be tidied up, bay will get a scrub whilst it's vacant
Ha ha I win! I fought the two bellhousing dowels for a solid three hours...I hate you & your seizing nonsense!
Don't see this end very often:
Safely on the stand
Stripping the old donk:
I had to remove a rocker cover to satisfy my curiosity & see if there was any sludge in the head after approx. 240.000km:
Clean as a whistle! (apart from where some wombat has tried to reseal a rocker cover leak with sealant).
Heads coming off Sunday night (tonight)!
