8 years after rebuilding the 2.2 motor, some minor oil leaks have finally pushed me to drop the engine and get them sorted. One turned out to be at the scavenge outlet but the other looks like the the front IMS cover - hence the need to pull engine for access.
  Love/hate these old engines! - Tony |

Look at that: Only one tool on the ground! I'm not sure I can trust this dude... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I'm with you! Looks STAGED! It isn't staged but WOW, Retro, your stuff is CLEAN! And not just the car, even the DA sander sitting on the shelf looks pretty clean... Mine looks like some type of weird modern art. Here's a sander sculpture made out of flour and cat litter! And then the concrete... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/new_shocked.gif) NONE of mine is even close to his "concours" concrete... |
