    Managed to get round to fitting the cam belt and water pump the other day. pully bolt would not budge so bought a new tool. Found the rest of the cam belt one I got the covers off. Got that sorted and made a start on the lower control arms my god what a git of a job. Done one but using a press for the other. VID_20201028_151644.mp4

Oops cambelt kit and water pump on order along with new PAS AC and ALT belts and coolant or order looks like I'm with out my daily untill the bits arrive lucky it's and easy belt to do easier than the 4e winner.

    Think the only difference is the abs discs have a ring for the abs and non abs don't quote me on that though.

    ECU has nothing to do with it which ones are sticking ? Sliders are mostly likely not sliding and stuck

    Engine was built by tuning developments I will be taking it back again to be stripped down inspected and rebuilt when I can afford it.

    No it's not bad if you keep up on the servicing. I serviced mine every 3k oil and filter. Unfortunately this time round I found metal in the oil not bad for a 9 year old forged lump that has had its head kicked in every time ive used it.

    Thank you won't be for a couple of years I don't think I just don't have the funds to get it done yet. The kids need new beds ect lol. So going to crack on with some other jobs clean the bay up drill out some snapped bolts freshen it up. Will have my new Fiske side skirts in a few months so can crack on with them and the wings.
