As i was saying to a few people at the weekend and to Graham earlier the most frustrating bit is that it took:
2 weeks to get the old engine out, engine pay painted, new engine in and getting it running the first time. That was all work done myself and by Laurie (gf's dad) just a few hours work per day aswel spare time.
And then since then its been nearly 7 weeks of just rubbish problem after problem which is out of my hands and capabilities.
The oil leak was an absolute pain, should never have occured had the place put the head/bottom end together with the timing right in the first place
Then the mapping has taken a while due to having to take the time finding out where the problem is and eventually identifying that its a faulty part thats been supplied. It happens to the best of us unfortunately but its such an inconvenience to all involved and a big drain on the finances.
Graham at Xspec has been immensely helpful and supportive throughout. Massive thanks to him
I just hope its every bit as worth it when i take it out for its first proper drive
