I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea but I felt like adding some of my own spice to my beloved Disco. I'd rather use 2-pack and get a really really perfect finish but the spray cans were cheap and came up ok [emoji108]
Doesn't matter that the timing cover is buried and won't really be seen, I know it's a fabulous shade of my favourite colour [emoji119][emoji119]

Have been busy cleaning the sump, and all the bolts. Timing cover also getting ready with new seal and bearing. Bearing in that was replaced only last year or year before I think it was when it left the mother ship and tried to run away [emoji28] but it's wobbly and not nice again so it's getting replaced before goes back on the car.
Such a crazy amount of metal in the sump. It's very clean now, but oil pick up I cannot get all the bits out the bottom of it [emoji2962] might need to just replace it if can't solve the problem [emoji848] need a bendy paint brush or set haha.
I need 1 of the sump bolts that go in from the transmission bell housing. No idea why I only have 3 of 4 [emoji2368] or how long one has been MIA for.

Did you sneak that one past Mum ok? [biggrin]
Are you back at it? I hear you've had a few showers down there.
The rain was crazy, was very worried about thr disco sat on axle stands and no front wheels but all is well.
Hopefully weather stays mild now as should have most of it back together over weekend. Still waiting on harmonic balancer. He said 2 weeks production time so it should not be far away now [emoji1696]
I was lucky, when I bought my Ross H/B it was in stock.
I hope it's not far, that will be the last thing as on home stretch of it going back together.
Gosh I can't wait to start her up and I have all fingers and toes crossed my precious disco is all okQuote:
