#11: Re: enignes in bits.... Author: nakednakeddave, Location: aberdeenPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 5:00 am ---- was followin the haynes manual, and said, got to this chapter to remove power steering pump from its mount, so did, then turned back, and i realised it didnt need to be removed, jus loosened....
but atleast it gives me an excuse for new power steering fluid
and needs a new belt..

#13: Re: enignes in bits.... Author: Seb, Location: Under your bedPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 9:44 am ---- Okay what's going on there? Do you actually ever service that thing? The oil looks like it hasn't been changed for like 100k. And do you have stones running through those cylinders?? I thought the rat look was only for exterior but it looks like it's got a bit going on inside as well!!
(Admittedly it had a head skim but a skim wouldn't even touch any of those dents as it hardly takes any off)
#14: Re: enignes in bits.... Author: nakednakeddave, Location: aberdeenPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 9:46 am ---- was due an oil change as it was, but the coolants all murky for some reason.....and no idea whats happened in the cylinder.....
but the heads away to the headshop on monday...and the rest of the engines getting a goooood clean before it all goes back together....
#15: Re: enignes in bits.... Author: Seb, Location: Under your bedPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 9:46 am ---- Plus you got some serious mayo going on
