putting it together was the easy part it was knocking the old uni's out that was a pain as i dont have a uni puller so had to do both usin's at once to get it apart putting back together was easy as could do one uni at a time,
but id still rather knock kdub 44000lb uni's in and outstill

not sure what cam cover your talking about here, I figured your not talking about the camshaft, thats topside

So... at end of day I've done nothing for the Turbo, scalded my hand and found I need to replace the fan and radiator.... the latter I think Ill replace with an uprated all alloy rad rather than the standard QUOTE]

Keen to know which alli radiator you chose; issues and performance.
Considering replacing it also.
Cheers DDM

this would also be a good thing to do as well while all apart as the auto cooler lines are apprently a pain in the ass to do, would pay to have them changed from the connectors on it to a dash 8 or 10 fitting to make it easier.
ask muppet as i think he is the last person to do it on here atm

Hi All, only a newbie here so sorry if this has been done better before, but I removed the facia containing the coin and ash trays (three Philips screws behind each) as neither would come out on their own. I found the plastic on the main frame broken that holds the spring in place. So a small hole was drilled and the end of the spring held in place with thin wire(quite stiff wire) and job done, put back together and working perfectly.
