It's the whole moving stuff out the way to check that i'd rather not do. I'd be a stickler making sure the cams are oiled right and the covers have the liquid gasket removed and put back on right. After all the meticulous work i did getting it back on the road im tending to think i'd keep the job on hold until later this year and i aint going to let a garage touch it either as i know im competent to do the job myself.

I'm thinking its good for another 10k before i even think about it according to the measurements i posted in a older thread.

p.s. Thats the quickest reply ive ever seen!
