    The top one is the manual tensioner

    Not so, I'm afraid, Myles. I have a late EU3 cylinder head and it was necessary to drill and tap a hole for a manual tensioner. Malcolm

    Skip Is there any significant wear on the splines for the removeable s/w boss? Do you know if this is compatible with a lower column on a 94 car? Thanks Malcolm Edited by - Englishmaninwales on 9 Feb 2007 13:58:20

    Billyboy I'd advise against this, I usually refit my drain plug up with PTFE tape. Do not overtighten (or threadlock) as some people have had difficulty in undoing it, resulting a damaged tank. malcolm

    Critical to check the liner heights. Speak to Dave Andrews (oily) for precise measurements. I think up to 0.004" proud of cylinder block deck, but I expect someone will be along with to correct me Malcolm

    There is nothing like arriving back at your paddock slot at a wind/rain swept Aintree to find your 'good deal' pop up is a wet crumpled heap...... ☹️. Next time I'll spend a bit more on one!

    The earlier chassis ('94) has a threaded boss for the upper radius arm fixing. The near side is prone to loosening. No problem, but just check its security from time to time. Malcolm

    The coolant leaks from the head/coolant rail joint and runs forward along the cylinder head/block joint and appears at the front of the engine (and downwards as in Angus' photos). The cause is the water rail fixings being too long and bottom out in their holes. Shorten the bolts and fit a new gasket with Hylomar. Malcolm

    Hey Paul, you made a good wine waiter today... Have a on me 😬 Malcolm
