Heading down to Meek Automotive today Lawso to get the lower engine mount inserts.

I can't do much more without them, cause they have to be back in place before I rip the timing belt end (including timing end mount) off to do the belt & all the seals.

[Lawso]

i have dwaynes number now

[Bennoz]

Engine mounts done & back on now, so I am getting on with cam seals & timing belt. Will post further info on the engine mounts in the engine mount DIY:

Progess today. Old mounts:



New mounts As you can see, we've gone for the solid core, manual style mounts.











One filthy throttle body





Tappets wanting to be done. Lots of cooked oil around the place!



The massive oil leak coming from the timing belt area is coming from the rear cam seals as you can see.

[SchumieFan]

^typical mitsi problem

just done the cam seals on my mums lancer... 160K ks

[Astron_Boy]

Ours are chronic also, wouldn't surprise me they're worse than Lawsos.

[Lawso]

also, get rid of most of the red sh*t if you can please ben it looks horrible imo

and when is the next weekend you are free, or day after work, i'll rock up to yours after work and give you a hand

[Bennoz]

Will send you a PM tonight Ben, gotta start collecting some cash from you for engine mounts & fuel filters etc.
Also need you to order some parts too.

Today adventures:

Started refurbing the tappets



"Track Day" cat



Another hideously screwed PS / Air Con belt

[Astron_Boy]

Better man up those driving skills!

Nice work Ben! (thought at one point Laws was getting some braided lines until I saw the belt and read the text

[Bennoz]
