Project Yellow thing - coming to an end

[John1.4]

where was i... oh yeah... valve stems were caked in (insert profanity here) so had to scrape them down carefully, had them in oven cleaner / my work degreaser / anything i could find, so that the valve sealing surfaces didn't have any crap on them

no pics of that so...

and valves in (they are properly lapped at this point, but again, (insert profanity here) camera is (profanity)

so then chuck on the HG, and carefully don't drop it, definately don't drop stuff and spill coolant in the now clean cylinders, and it should look something like this:

and that's the limit of what i took pics of, i was up against it in terms of the time i had left, and still had to get up to my mates house and find a different TB and inlet (was going to replace this one as it was a bit noisy - and still is) turns out he didn't have or couldn't find it, so had to bolt my old one on... plus the induction moose filter i found in his garage

the 10 day retest period ended at 15:44, i got my MOT pass sheet after a day of wrenching on it, cuts and oil stains, bruises and curses............ at 15:41 WOOOOO

:p That is all for now
