Hi all Well........ it passed I relined rear shoes before taking it and cleaned up bad indicator connection on the ramp. Now all i have to do is sort cam shaft rattle out ( hence much ooming and arghing in previous post) and jobs a good 'n'. You all probably think Im of my head buying somthing with an engine rattle but my reasoning is amount I got off asking price will pay for engine fix and that is gonna be alot cheaper than changing a chassis a few years down the line so its head off at the weekend and fingers crossed its something simple and obvious it sounds like a tappet but it aint Im currently thinking cam shaft lobe and or a follower. When I checked tappets there was a valve cap missing this was replaced but unfortunately didnt fix the noise (cap not turned up as yet) so has any one had experience of exsesive tappet clearance busting a follower? Any ideas tips much welcomed
Thanks in advance Icky
