    I used the permatex black on the valley gasket as per the instructions you put up. Nil problems. Also did this to the Windsor V8 in my rig now. I also used that Maniseal which sets upon being hot. Better than the orange coloured silicone.

    Some pics of the rocker shaft and heads as they came off

    You can see pretty clearly where the heads have been leaking and the shafts speak for themselves !

    Well it is back together but it won't start

    It almost fires then backfires.

    We have triple checked the plug leads

    I am wondering if we may have got a fuel injector connector connected to the wrong injector

    I also changed the connector for the CPS, but was very careful to keep the pins the same way.

    No faults come up on the nanocom, so we are a little stumped

    Thanks mate,

    We can smell fuel on the plugs but will check the pressure tomorrow

    And we will re-check all the connectors

    Well we have rechecked all the connectors and they are fine all connected the same way.

    We have fuel pressure and spark.

    It seems for all the world like we have the plug leads wrong, but we have checked them 10 times as well

    I turns over and then it seems like it tries to fire, then a little backfire. That's all that happens

    Approaching maximum frustration level !
