Think about the contact patch. Probably a finger tip each side and due to the flat axle stand top it wouldn't take much to have that fall off on you if you venture underneath and while pulling yourself out the car moves without you realising.

Back along I visited a family to buy some cars from a collection that a young lad had. He'd been crushed to death under a poorly supported vehicle.

    So thanks to the s**t weather things have been slow but on the plus side the engine bays nice and clean


    Also the cams are finally sorted.

    I have to say to everyone that guesstimates when they advance their cams they are VERY VERY BRAVE doing it without a dti tool. Mental how easy it is f**k these engines.Smart bit of kit
    Have to give paul13 and Antoney off the 205gti forum a massive thank you for helping me out witj the engine. Now to finish the rest of the car :-)

    LOL I know this feeling all too well
    The look on my face must have been a picture after me and pugjim rebuilt my engine from the ground up because he very quickly reassured me it was just the tappets and they would quiet down once they had filled with oil again

    Good work mate glad to hear the good news!
    Thumbs up

    Well it's been a hell of a while since I've posted on here. Combination of uploading photos and forum being a tad dead. So time to get back in to the swing of things.
