Nudge Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 Well at last i have all the bits to start my rebuild, she's been off the road for 6 months but loonybin has come down for the bank holiday to assist, everything has been removed in the engine bay. easter bunny's coming in the morning to help put the new engine in once i have put the new bits on, then MOT, and a remap and i will be on the road again, so things are looking up for me at the moment.......i is happy at last...........
Nudge Posted March 24, 2008 Author Posted March 24, 2008 ran into bit of a problem...the gearbox diddnt want to let go of the engine, no matter how much we tried she diddnt want to let go, also how easy is it to get the injectors out i removed the cap, do they just pull out, i tried but they seen to be in there firmly, new ones waiting to go in....then new 16g turbo, headers to go on, new uppipe to fit, timing belt, excedy clutch to go on, me hoses should be here in the morning to fit as well. then when its all running i can fit the new ecu, and some new scuzz and herman graphics....ready for the spring, fingers crossed

Jolly Green Monster Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 takes a bit to realise the first time.. the fork pivot pin it out?
matthew_buckland Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 My gearbox took some time to come off too, crowbar and big hammer was the only way to go....... obviously Marty was doing it. surprised he didn't bring them down with him, they are the two essentials in his tool kit.
