I have posted you the final version (printed) which Robin Hood brought round to me the other night, the one you had was a preliminary one.

Just wish there was one for a 4 pot, need to do mine. Sad


Although yours is a facelift and a 2.2, if you was to get a haynes following that is pretty helpful, although when you look at it, its kind of obvious what needs to be done.

Just follow the guide for doing a 2.0

Good Luck with it though.


I know, but would just like to see 'THE MASTER' at work.


Still happy to do it for you but, struggling to get the time at the moment.

I am away (Weymouth) next week and then on the Chezk Wrecks rally with Laidback66 after, can do it in mid September once I have got everything back to 'normal'

Had my cambelt doen by Vx last year, so no need to do it in the near future.

Ordered the DVD anyway, just because it's great fun to watch other people work, form the comfi of your sofa!  Grin

Got mine (thanks Robin Hood, did you get my payment?), very well done, both the actual work and the filming.

I did however, ahhmmm, spot a very very minor safety issue, not sure if it is even worth raising  Lips Sealed because it will seem like nit-picking, especially since the most daring thing I ever did on my meega was to change the spark plugs (and even so I was too lazy to actually move the How2 from the 'other' site to here..), but I might just drop a confidential PM to the party invoved....  Embarrassed
