I'm a complete novice and brought a loom kit from chad, I'm just finishing mine off now and it was so easy as chad had obviously put a lot of effort into the diagrams and labelling, highly recommend giving him a shout.

snoopy, would there be a visible wear mark on the flywheel?

I'll be interested in the replies as ive got the same issue after changing my oil seal TWICE,

After being baffled about an oil leak, I discovered a bubbling from one of my new 1641 barrels, (The make was AAA) so im after a single barrel to replace it, ideally east sussex
thanks Ben

almost there, chads sent the wiring out this week, just got a couple of leaks on the engine I cant fathom out but wont be long till I can mot it hopefully, pop in some time an have a look

ive never seen that around (im in st.leonards), looks to be a hastings number plate too I believe , smart buggy

I need to order a couple of bits from him so will ask him when i call, thanks again, i can see the end of the build finally!

Excellent thanks for that, will hopefully crack on with that now, looked complicated at first.

Does anybody have a picture of how the flatlands engineering steering column support fits please?
Cheers Ben

Hi mate where are you located?
Cheers

Ok cheers, hopefully get some stainless ones made up then 

Do you have to use the proper pan washers to hold the body on?

It rotates fully but the adjusters are right back and when the valves are closed the arm seems tight onto the valve, i thought it would have some adjustment? I will double check the pushrods are properly seated in the cam end. Cheers for the replies

Hi so  i took it upon myself to put new 1641 barrels and pistons on my old 1600 case and when i got it back together the rockers seem tight on the valves when fully undone, i put the seal under the rocker mounts an done as per the haynes manual, are 1500 rockers different to 1600 as i may have used my brothers rockers or should there be a spacer under the rockers? (Im a novice so go easy on me  )

Cheers for putting it up I've just bought it. will come in handy
