[QUOTE="gninnam, post: 622045, member: 28874"] Great big massive bollocks.................. Today I was to set the timing very loosely using tried and trusted methods - hand spin the engine over with the right hand side valve cover off so I can see when cylinder 1 is at TDC (both valves closed and distributor in the right place) and also do the valve clearances. Starts to turn the engine, then it stopped and wouldn't move so, turn it the other way and the same - at the same time I noticed that when rotating one way then the other I have end float of around 3 mm.......... Didn't have this before when I first put the engine back together?? So - anyone in the Leeds area who could pop over and tell me if the engine is a waste of space or what I should do next? [/QUOTE]
