It's a VW PB Engine (1.8 litre 4-cyl), but still, i shall block off the holes and grease & clean :)

In.

What about the crap that gets scraped off? Should i be blocking all the passageways, and filling the bores with tissue paper to make sure nothing goes where it shouldn't?

As above really - block is in the car, head is off, head ready to go back on, but block still has remnants of gasket on it. Someone who shall remain nameless advised me to use 600 grit wet & dry with WD40 on it to remove the crud, but that seems like a dangerous idea, what happens to the gunk...

Sorry Mike, was in a bad mood when i posted that!

I can vouch for that. In for a bit.

IMO, you can't claim to be a 'fan' and enjoy this movie - it's just unpossible. Story? Sucked. Direction? Sucked. Actors? Sucked. Dialogue? Sucked. Gene Roddenberry would most definitely be spinning in his grave over this. They've taken a series that was about the human condition, and turned...

Okay, this thread is CLOSED. ALL OF YOU GO AND READ THIS: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92021 FOR THE LAST TIME, INTRODUCTIONS IS *NOT* FOR SOLVING TECH QUESTIONS! I'm gradually getting sick and tired of seeing these threads pop up, and the long time members posting...

THIS IS NOT A TECHNICAL FORUM. Ask this question in the correct section. I'm sick and tired of cleaning up these threads, existing users should know better than to post responses.

I can't be crazy - for i am napoleon! :D

I'm pinning my hopes on the new Transformers Movie instead. Although Nemesis was crap, its the last 'official' movie in my eye, and the new one will be completely erased from my memory.

For those of you that like Star Trek, seriously, only see this movie if you want reasons to justify JJ Abrams upcoming murder... :3d_frown: I went into this open minded, and was semi-enjoying it until about 10 minutes before the end, when they just gave up on the storyline and didn't resolve a...

Yep, "life after people" is definitely worth watching on the History Channel, some interesting stuff on there. Have a look for Gary, Indiana if you want to see decay!

My Father. Last time i saw him on a cordial basis, he drank 4 bottles of wine in a 2 hour period, then sat down with another bottle by the TV, and after ploughing through that, had a 'few' beers before rolling into bed in his underpants. :nono: I'm glad i kicked the shit out of him in the end.

I'd stick with the Toyota recommended plugs, you're not really going to notice much difference at stock power levels. I got mine off eBay, for about £1.50 each for BCPR7ES's

This would be better posted in the WTB Section, although, check on www.forums.mkiiisupra.net - theres usually someone selling a set.

Hey dude. To the best of my knowledge, theres only JSeaman in the yorkshire area, and one other person who lives in chesterfield - the rest of us are spread out a bit, nearer to London/east anglia. There are a few meets though :)

Some updates for y'all; 7/3/09: My 12mm XZD Spline Socket arrived (1/2" drive), and i proceeded to crack the bolts off, it makes sense now i've used it - they don't slip off and would be near impossible to round off. Both Manifolds are off, the cylinder head is in my sink, and my hands...

Well, i spent the other evening rebuilding the tappets. I always assumed they were a sealed unit, but they're not. Hold the tappet in your hand, flat side to your palm, and give it a hard smack against a bit of wood, like a workbench, or a bit of MDF (something soft that you don't mind denting)...
