Hope I can remember where all the bits go.

Today I start to put it all back together, although still waiting for tie rods, brake pipes etc.

Anybody got a length of scaffold pipe for extending a torque wrench ?

Pasha perhaps you could let me know which bits I can leave off

[Ali]

Oooh heck P.

How have you got on today? Many bits left without homes yet?

I just think its a miracle when people can do this sort of thing, I really do. The patience, logic and time that goes into it when it's not an everyday job is amazing.

Hats off

Not a good day Ali, I made a few mistakes and had to redo a couple of things, I stupidly removed the cam locking tool before I should have, that resulted in a bloody finger and a couple of hours making a tool to reset the cam sprockets.

Also having trouble with the cambelt tensioner, It keeps moving after I have set it, I can't figure out why.

Good news is that electrolysis does work for de-rusting.

I might have a day off today

It's Sunday P. Sit back with your feet up (for a change!)

Here's a little funny for you........

Used to be the thing, years ago,that when you got car back from garage there was always a nut or bolt on the floor!

I could do with one of those air wrenches Ali

I couldn't relax this morning, the tensioner problem was bugging me so I re-fitted the old one, no problem, it lined up and stayed there.

Any bits left on the floor??

Loads

I still have to put the suspension and brakes back together, then I have to do the other three wheels

I'm also still waiting for some items to be delivered, the problem with a Rover is that for most non service parts the suppliers are limited.

No chance to work on it whilst it's raining, I did plan to put the gazeebo over the car but with strong winds forecast that is probably not a good idea.

Yes, it was my idea not to do the work in the garage .

Waheeeeee, crankbolt done, I can run the engine tomorrow

Good luck!
