Guy (I got your PM btw will reply later) all you need to buy is the metal replacement connecting rod that breaks usually. Its easy to fit, saying that it took me an hour and I still couldn't get it on. Ben put it on in under a minute for me

well thats that now bloody thing i feel deflated and fed up now just stripped it all down to follow the guide that was on the link and now i need a new inlet manifold yes car feels low on power not a great deal but in the high revs it lacks that extra pull that it once had, oh and amar by the way i replaced the links you were on about quite some time ago and i did not think they were working properly then..... they were solid to get out i managed to get the insert out with the o ring on no problem but the plastic bit that fits inside that and rotates just fell to bits
      going to fit the new breaks now instead il have to scout ebay for a new manifold  gutted
