Came out saturday morning to find bonnet could not be reopened after I had closed it on Friday. struggled and struggled to open but after going to local motor factor to buy a mini torch, and explaining what happened to me I was advised to get someone to assist in pulling bonnet release whilst I pushed down and then pulled up. It worked
. Now stuck again although I greased spring etc.
Does anyone know how to rectify problem? except not closing bonnet
huffed and puffed in attempting to remove camshaft cover then tapped with soft faced mallet and wondered how can it be so hard to remove, and saw i had not removed last two screw/studs.
.
Proceeded to remove cam pullyes and although holding cam in place with a spanner whilst undoing screw, I had not held it tightly enough and it turned
. Although turned it back i'm not sure if replaced to original position. I realy pray I have :-/ as I don't want a nasty result when removing head later in the morning to take to engineers.
