Title: The hardest job of all!!!
Post by: SteveR on October 24, 2015, 06:49:12 PM
(Well, so far anyway)

...Getting the %^~€*~^ headers back on straight!!! Flushing the radiator this afternoon, realised I needed a long, skinny socket to get to the cylinder drain bolts... Don't have one... Book says to remove the exhaust, ok, a little fiddly, but ok... As for getting the buggers back on!!!!

Any tips? I didn't separate the headers, the book (Haynes) suggested it wasn't necessary, and they look pretty well stuck together anyway... Is that my problem? I've got them on, but not quite seated right, trying to run the engine to temp for the flush isn't going to make for happy neighbours at this rate!
