Re: Love my tappets

Re: Love my tappets
If your well mechanically minded and don't mind pulling your engine down and putting it back together I'd say u might squeeze in but have to wait and see what the tappet master says

Will definitely do it if someone is happy to assist and walk me through it.
Will there be the necessary tools there?
EDIT: while I'm there I should probably service my car too. Ok time to get a few parts and whatnot in prep.

Re: Love my tappets
I will PM address when I have all confirmed members listed.
Start time I would say somewhere between 6am - 9am, depends on when you want to turn up.
Would be a good idea to bring new spark plugs if you have'nt changed them for a while.
Now we need more members to come help, BTW you can do other repairs/mods if your not coming for tappets. More members = more jobs can get completed
Lets all pray together to GOD BENNOZ for nice weather on the day
