No longer annoyed/confused


Happy bunny now aww engine is in and runnin sweet. When i ripped it out and had another look the original head (changed other side, it had knackered exhaust studs) had sticky valves. It wasnt running badly when i bought it so why they decided to stick im unsure. Anyway, i removed the head and all the vlaves, springs etc. Gave all the rockers a good de-shyte and oiled em up nicely. Re-seated the valves and fitted new seals, springs and collets then shoved the head back on. Re-set all the valve clearances just to be sure then bolted the fugger back in this mornin. All seems well so its had an oil change and a wipe down to get all my stick mitt marks off it. Only one problem now. Some dipshyte broke the tube on the vacuum unit.....blankstare
