Newent jobs - volunteers for work!
« on: 01 September 2008, 09:22:46 »

Right, we need to plan the following jobs:

ians - Press a set of wishbone bushes (does this include remove/re-fit wishbones?)
JohnArgraig - Tech 2 work
Mick Dundee - Exhaust manifold gasket
TMX - Tech 2 work + Serpentine belt (do you mean cambelt?)
Jay W - Tech 2 work + pinion oil seal.
JamesV6Cdx - Camber set (if we can find somewhere flat!)
LFF64 - V6 Cambet, water pump and spark plugs + Tech 2 work
Dave C - Camber set (if we can find somewhere flat!)
Entwood - Pimp my ride detailing demo
johnnycboy - Tech 2 work

So, who is up for a bit of grafting?

Not really up to doing any of those myself (not that anyone would trust me to work on their cars  ;D) except maybe gentle tech2ing  :-[

Will be nosing at everything though  ;D

Well I am hoping that the Captain and LooKnee might do Mick Dundees exhaust manifold so I can get the cambers set and the pinion seal done.

That then leaves Tech2 work and a cambelt or two.....

I can do bits, not sure about manifold gasket though!

Wouldn't mind watching the pinion seal being done though, if there is room for a spare head under there?

I'm guessing the Tech2 work won't take long, we can whizz around doing them once the 'dirty' work is finished?  Shouldn't take long, esp with at least 3 Tech2's onsite.


Long range forecast isn't great, some kind of large gazebo/marquee might be needed?  I may have a couple of tarpalines if we need to crawl under cars, to save getting too wet if it rains...
