  1. Doing a few more jobs on dad's 1929 plymouth motor. Had one of the engineers at work re-whitemetal the bearings a while ago . Sorting the valve lash adjusters now. They were pretty worn down from the valve stem. Didn't have a before pic but here's some hard facing tig rod and a surface ground finish That bolt is 97 years old now
  2. It's not really water based like tap water. It's still solvent but it's a natural solvent. Also not suited to home jobbies.
  3. @chasinthemirage Painting 1 car won't kill you or really do any damage. Just don't he huffing the fumes for hours on end. Paint it with 2k
  4. Yes cams and valves are in

    The smaller then fan is the less pressure you need. Wind the product screw right in so there is no product and then just back it off a little. So only a little product can come out. Then just eyeball the air pressure adjustment till its low enough to suit what you want

    Just turn your air and product down If you also narrow the fan up you can do quite small stuff with a "normal" gun
  8. I got a wof yesterday But I haven't really been driving it much because it idles like shit. Stumbles and misses real bad. Turns out the intake to head gaskets were dissolving. Presumably because of the fuel. They were from a nos permaseal set so I'd think they're ok but apparently not. Took it to work today and made some new gaskets . Runs nice now Didn't really take many pics I'd already had it apart and been lazy and used a 6g72 gasket for the top half. Shows how much smaller the 6g71 ports are Also gave it a oil change seeing as its done 6000kms ......in 5 years Even gave it a wash Will probably get used a bit more. Since it's the most fuel efficient thing I own
  9. Don't go using your big fancy words around here

    You'll want to cavity wax last. Any wax anywhere near the paint is going to be a bad time
  11. And a ct110 that does 45kph tapped
  12. What happens at the camp site stays at the campsite
