I could meet you at the Holiday Inn at Warrington, the only problem is it won't be until next Saturday as I have a few cambelts and cam cover gaskets to do next week. Have you got your cambelt kit and water pump yet?

First time is always the worst, once you've done it you will wonder why you worried so much. Turning the key for the first time is the bum twitching time ;D

right then i'm going to do the cambelt tomorrow. thanks elite pete for telling me genuine antifreeze was so cheap. just one question at the moment i have blue antifreeze in it ,when i take the water pump off will it drain the entire system or will i have to flush the system to put in the new pink stuff?
