What is it that falls onto the floor at 1:33? Sounds just like cassette butI can't make it out

It's the model of the capri,stuck on the dash with gaffer

Superb result. It can be quite demanding when other matters take priority

I'm certain it won't pass the next MOT. I'm best putting the video for public view. I've just done a video,it didn't come out correctly

I've just bought £102,88 quid for the crank and cam pulley,and 22 quid for import duties. I'm also in the process of checking my camshaft lift,a possibility the drive train could be worn,but have measured the cam lobes and they are near the specified measurements,and the lifters/tappets

Correct Stroker,adding the extra metal to the tip won't assist in my intentions,I can see that now,because of the 0.35/0.40mm clearance. Stroker,I did see your method in full on Capripower. I couldn't see the difference,but see it n...

Hello everyone. I'm in the e process of rebuilding my eichberg turbo cologne and was wondering if anyone has modified the rocker arm tip by adding a millimetre or two of whatever metal it is, probably cast iron?
Thanks
