Cool!

What was it in the end?


Paul (Notts) - 29/6/07 at 05:46 PM

180 deg out on ignition.

Very pleased with it as I have completely stripped and rebuild the engine with new bearings, cam, followers, rings, rockers etc - mainly because I have never worked on an engine before.

Well done Paul - Ain't it a fab feeling? - Did you get any video of the moment? - I'm very sad and look at mine (video) often because it still brings a big grin to my chops.

Anyway - Enough celebrating - Off to the garage man - You have an SVA to pass...

I wondered what that big grin was that I could see on the horizon.

Well done mate, its a great feeling isn't it.




Enjoy.

Nice one Paul, don't it feel good when it runs for the first time - especially after nasty flames on first attempts
