Got home tonight from work and there was a card from our postman, he had left a parcel at the neighbours place.
So I popped around and picked up an envelope from the USA with a postage stamp worth $35.00 on it.
The tie rod ends were another $25.00 or something like that for the pair. It's the price you,pay for wrong stuff being picked by an eBay seller who then disappeared.
I also found hidden in the kitchen, my new set of gaskets and seals from Summit that Langy had sent me the last week.
I had bought a load of food containers this week to repack all the bolts once I cleaned them and some emery paper.
So spent about 3 hrs in the garage tonight, included some cleaning and repacking of bolts and oily parts.
Once again, the level of bush mechanic or bodgery astounds me.
How do you end up with three completely different bolts on one job?
All done for tonight in the garage. It was 4'C down there, and if you sit still the cold creeps into your bones.
Locked up and came indoors to give the oil pan a second coat of paint.
And yes.......... It is indoors, and no, she won't mind (she is away for the weekend.
Tomorrow I start cleaning the heads.
Followed by the block.
