On the blag.....
« on: 29 August 2007, 20:04:36 »
If the weather is good on the Saturday, I was rather hoping take advantage of the presence of the experts and advice on hand and to do the belt/tensioners/water pump on mine, alongwith sorting the vacuum/multirams.  Was sorting out tools required, etc, today and it appears that I cannot lay my hands on the 30mm spanner or the required Torx to turn the crank.

Would it be too much of an imposition for someone to have them in the boot of their car, perhaps?  I have the timing kit from, I think, JayW and will return it to him thereafter as well as a goodly assortment of tools.

Will pay handsomely in edibles (haggis, square sausage, Irn Bru, Tennants, malt etc) to those requiring...   :y
