Good offer, I need to check when mine is due, and maybe borrow those for my trusty local mechanic to do it when it needs done

remember my view on DIY is "know your limitations" David, so I always get a man in

Lol, sounds to me like your idea of DIY Brian is Dont Involve Yourself, lol. I know I stated this is for the 40v motors but if anyone wants to try it for their engine is again more than welcome to try it for size

Does anyone know anywhere in the North West where I might be able to loan/buy a Cam Locking Kit?

My car has gone into the garage for a major service today and they're struggling to get hold of one

Thanks Mikki, that would be great.

Just spoke to the garage and they're still struggling to get hold of one. I'll PM you.

Thanks very much for the offer.

Mikki has very kindly offered to loan me her cam locking kit which I believe is on its way up north as we speak/type.




I would've asked sooner but I was actually planning to buy a cam locking kit. In fact the garage ordered the kit for me and was told it would be delivered this week but their supplier let them down.
