Taggy

I still cant believe i missed this, i gotta take the whole bloody timing side off again now arghhh!

Ok my gearbox which has got my lovely Quaiffe Diff in, has been doing my facking head in. I was going to take it out as it was jumping out of 5th gear all the time. However its developed a headache of a problem in that now its been impossible to get one of the CV cups out. The first came out no problem, but this one is completly stuck, I have taken it to a gearbox shop and had them try and get it out and still no luck, they even stuck it in a 5ton press to try and pop it out and it wouldnt come out!!! So now my problem is that i have a box thats popping out of 5th and i cant get my diff out. I have a new box to replace it but obviously i cant get the diff out!! Aside from the stuck cup the gearbox works ok, its just popping out of 5th. I am going to take it apart and swap the gears over to fix it. Can someone explain to me what i need to swap in it from my working box to the broken one. Luckily the cup which is stuck is the bell housing side so i still have access to the gears if i split it. Any advice?

whats the best way to take apart my box to replace my 5th gear selector. Which way around shuld i split the box, whats that cover on the end do, the small one

I have just come to the realisation that I havent put instant gasket on the rear of my new oil pump when i fitted it, looking at my old one i can see it had gasket on it. Is it going to leak like a sive if i dont take it off and put some on the back of it?

yeah it just makes you ill thinking about it I have just been putting the auxilary bits on this evening, found the spring i lost so all the cam covers are on now and setup. Put on the new water pump and also fitted the alternator and engine mounts. COuldnt do to much as the weather is wank and having a boat is very distracting when its sunny as i keep going out on that lol! oh and i put on the flywheel and clutch! Phew!

I need a cam belt spring, has anyone got one i can buy off them, need one urgent!

I havent been on the forum much lately and It was great to read all the updates, glad to see you have got a bit more time to put towards the project. I will be busy my self tomorrow putting my engine together to put back in the car (did a forged 5e) So looking forward to gettting it back in!! Cracking work as usual, keep up the good work!!

Number 4:Rubbers for the injectors, you get one below and on top per injector

some how i have managed to lose two of them from two different engines, i dont know where the hell i have put them, driving me nuts!

yeah its the one behind the cambelt cover, it hooks onto a little tab and then onto the pulley, think its the autoadjuster to keeep the cambelt tight Let me know what you want to cover your postage and for the spring Cheers Craig

will see how deep my pockets go!

I have some how managed to misplace my cam tensioner spring, lost it in all my crap in my shed! Does anyone have a spare one i could get off them

Lol, even got a seat belt on! Got it back home today finally!! ha ha nokids just yet!!

bumpy

yeah tell me about it! I have spent alot of time on it and double checked everything, i just need to put it in my car

Finally some progress, I have been working on it up my mates house so its drastically slowed me down on how many hours i could put into it, but light at the end of the tunnel now. Its all together, just need to put on the flywheel, clutch and a few other bits and pieces, but the engine is built and timed up properly. I have replaced EVERYTHING in it for new, so its now a totally brand new engine! To say i will be shitting it when i go to turn the key is an understatement, so far with engine parts, workshop machine work I have spent over two grand! fuck!! didnt realise it had added up to so much lol.

heh heh now that is wishful thinking!

I have used both and the A048's are much better for grip, although that was on track not drag, but it should be the same as long as you get the heat into the fronts. Good tyre but VERY expensive to buy new, i usually go to seloc.org and buy part worn ones for about £80 a pair, over the £350 a pair price new

Its normal to get a bit of fine oil spatter out of it, you can either collect it in an oil catch can or just stick a mini filter on.

yes oil pumps are the same, only sump and pickp is different. I am using the 4e one too.
