Ahoy there Alan.


Well progress is slow at the moment, sorry for the slack hammocks and poor updates, lots of other projects on at the moment.


Valves are cleaned up and ground in including the decompressor.  The exhaust valve was a bit of a bugger to get out, took some persuasion with hammer to break it loose when the valve spring compresion tool had loaded it up.  I am now waiting for some gasket seal to arrive through the post so I can then start the reassembly, probably just put the valves and springs back tomorrow.  The weather is looking a bit rough from the NW so will be staying in.


Thanks for the hail, will pass a yarn tomorrow when some progress made.  Out pipes now me thinks for some egyptian PT.
