Always good to be able to share or help.

Friday night..... What a relief to be home.

Started my new job on Monday, trust me, it has been tough.

Loads of data being dumped on me, and much more still to come.

Anyway, I spoke to friend Euan "Moosevan" last week when I wanted to buy some Helicoils so that I could address the issue of stripped out threads on my gearbox. He offered to post out some of his Helicoils and the associated fitting tools.

On the way home tonight, I collected them as well.



Planning on going to Martins tomorrow afternoon to load the engine hoist, engine stand and some other bits.
Then on Sunday he will come over , as well as Paul Y and then we will tackle the garage, moving truck chassis, motorbike and engine etc about in the garage.
Followed by getting the gearbox off, drilled and tapped with the Helicoil.

Next up will be the engine strip down...........
