Whack them all up to torque setting, then turn them all a further amount specified by angle (eg another 30 degrees), and tighten them further another 30 degrees...

Though judging by that clap of thunder I've just heard in Bletchley, I suspect you've gone inside for a cuppa :)

It certainly took some effort to turn the crank,  I didn't turn it before so can't compare.  Should know the answer later..... [smiley=vrolijk_1.gif]

That is good news, as before, the only compression was just before TDC - the rest of the cranking was easy... :)

There is also a vac pipe diagram in the Maintenance Guides - for the full system.

And using that with the multiram info in the FAQ you can tell what goes where.

Do you mean within the Maintenance guides as I have been having a look myself, just out of curiosity.

Thanks for that - connected them all up!
Put the multi-ram back (might need to take it out and re-seat that)

Put coolant back into the system..

Double-checked there are no spare parts that should have been replaced.

Ummmed



Arhrhed


Got the key out of my pocket


got in the driver's seat


put the key in


turned it...........










THE rather BATTERY IS FLAT!!! >:(

break break break break break!!! oh and break!

The wife is out, no battery charger, the car is parked the wrong way on the drive to jump it (if I had jump leads which I don't!)

Looks like the moment of truth will have to wait a while longer!

break!
