  1. have you got John Walkers address/details Thanks
  2. Not having a complete one in front of me I cant tell. But the wear on parts makes me think this has been going on for some time. This piece was at the bottom in the spring and would not lift out through the valve/guide hole so Im at a loss as how one would go back inshort of sliping it back up but then as it says in the book tap it in?
  3. This was all that was left so unless the rest went south down the inlet its all broken up long ago
  4. It fell out when I took the spring out Im sure there must be more of it somwhere!
  5. Aw and John said you had such fun! Now its out any idea what could have caused it?and where do I look for a replacement?
  6. Ok at last a quiet day with good wether so I bit the bullet bodged the compresion tool and got the No2 inlet valve out here is whats left of the guide the inlet has a bit of a bur on one side but no sign of wear?now who has a spare guide or two lurking in the spares box?
  7. You sure know how to cheer a chap up. any idea of what size im looking for or will it depend on wear ect?
  8. I dont know if it was even ther when I got het but the playis about 1/4 in until I get the valve removed I wont know if it broke up or what and as the truck is out side the house how would i get it recut?
  9. Right I have found that im missing the valve guide from No 2 inlet the valve compresion tool wont fit over the manifold so question can I remove the valve any other way and if i could how do I remove any old bits and replace it without having to take the whole engine out?

  20. On a patrol in deepest Dunganon late 70s troopy spots the sherpa coming down the road now as we all know the only ones with landrovers or sherpers were HM Forces and it was the covert pick up van. So as it stops at the junction all jump in Troopy in the front he does the old double take spots the driver is old Mc d from a local farm. To his credit Troopy didnt bat an eye lid but shouted "ok boys this ones clean lets go and all bailed out see they are not all urban myths
