vveecee21 Sept 2007, 10:33

freddy - you have PM.

and the potential leak i am talking about is just past where the timing locator marks are pointing. in the corner on the right hand side!

and its a pity that that huge big bakkie fan is covering all that pretty red paint???

whats going to cover the green aircon, and the pink alternator???

VVladeadmin21 Sept 2007, 10:44

I don't think that thing will leak there, you talking about the sump? I helped seal that pooka hence all the sealant

Now only turbo exhaust housing to be addressed. Then its time.
I posted wanted t28 turbo exhaust housing. May be I am lucky.
I really want to go that route specificly to keep up with the Jones's 😀 😀

Ja I like the T28 idea... ummm Rezlo is selling some used ball bearing units... Price wasn't bad... but again dealing with him is like taking a cat for a bath.

some might prefer the cat route, but then again, you could always buy product from some of his associated peeps!

and chemcool, i knew overhauling an alternator wasnt so hard!!! if i gave you a set of new "complicated" internal electronics, how difficult do you think it would be to swap them out???

Electronics is my baby. My forte( but our club president is better). CA18 DET rebuilt is out of my range. But I tell you-- this rebuilt story is the one never going to be out of my mind for years. But I have to mentioned that knowing there is wisdom around you, like club pimps, club presidents and moderators and administrators, makes the dream come real. Thanks to all. Must admit I do experience some butterflies the closer it comes to the swop! Which I always said is a good thing. It will be now or never.

I said it before. In 1991. When the engine compartment was open I use to say:"you cant work on this engine. To complicated".
