nice job you did there.
Did you rebuild the engine yourself, and if 'yes' are they easy enough to do?
i'm thinking of rebuilding mine before April!

thanks

Thanks I was recovering from serious illness and need a "project" to stop me throwing myself under a bus... it took 18 months but i only worked on it when i was well enough and felt like it. Fortunately i made a good recovery and am firing on 3 1/2 cylinders.
Mr E the engine is a doddle to work on. Im in Wakefield where are you, i see Yorkshire on your Avatar..
